Why This Astrophysicist Left Atheism & Found Jesus 

Resurrection sign, shroud sign, for those who don't hear Jesus saying; the only sign is that of Jonah. A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of [a]the prophet Jonah.” And He left them and departed. How can anyone keep from laughing at some podium jockeys? Theologians grant Doctorates as if we were dealing with a science having fantasyland vocabulary. We know this wolf in sheep's clothing by their practice of indoctrinating children with their fantasyland narrative, & their vocabulary of The Garden of Eden. Freud wrote, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy." I don't teach Christians because I expect them to learn, I teach them because they are illiterate.

God bless you! Your work is gold. From Puerto Rico!🙏🏾

Thank you! I love PR!@@chemigue

this interview with Dr. Hugh Ross was one of a kind - such a brilliant mind, able to express things in lay terms in humility and simplicity

This idea of leaving Atheism shows a total misconception of what Atheism is, it is not an ideology or a belief, it is simply a lack of belief so it is incorrect to say one has left it. I don't belief in the tooth fairy but it does not mean I am part of an ideological group and I somehow can leave such a group, it is simply a lack of belief. You channel consistently exposes itself as totally misunderstanding about Atheism, because it is not a ideological group that somehow follows common values you cannot attribute it as been against religion or somehow a threat, Atheist values come from many subjective personal views and experiences from the scientific approach of lack of verifiable evidence to simply having no interest in the subject matter and not entertaining such. How about trying to argue your ideology by proving God exists ? You cannot, no one has ever done so and the best we often see is using the bible to prove the bible which is a logical fallacy, the desperation of the church to try push its message has simply come down to attacking others to make Christianity look like the logical obvious choice, it is called misdirection simply because you have no real method anymore of to convince ppl to belief a God exists.

Oh that’s wonderful to hear! I hope God ministers to your heart and your able to get there 🕊️❤️

Go all the way.

Go have an in depth look into the science of Cell structures. Start with Kinesin Motor Proteins and their job within the cell and I guarantee you will start to question everything you have been taught up until now. Basically the deeper science digs for the answers the closer they get to admitting that this is all by brilliant design. God Bless 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

@@brownwarrior6867 oh I've been down that rabbit hole haha, but thank you very much for the recommendation! Happy Easter to you and your family.

I'm in the same ballpark as you. I was an atheist/agnostic from 18 to 35. Jordan Peterson introduced me to another way to view religion, and about a month ago I found Christ! And in finding Christ, I found also the Holy Spirit, which has brought me a joy I didn't know existed. After reading your post, I sent out a prayer for you, someone I don't know, with tears in my eyes, that you find Christ and God, and in doing so the Holy Spirit. Good luck on your faith journey, brother!

Believing in Evolution is a waste of time.

No, the vast majority of astronomers just see nature at work. One cognitively dissonant autistic astronomer changes nothing!

Yassss!

People that know the universe understand that almost nothing about it is either close or personal.

Its because they are what they claim us to be... "Delusional" and they are to us what we claim they are "Loved"

@@ZacharyBetz That doesn't make him right about anything.

You have a scientific background? Maybe you can help me with some scientific problems from just the first 2 pages: The Genesis 1 creation account conflicts with the order of events that are known to science. In Genesis, the earth is created before light and stars, birds and whales before reptiles and insects, and flowering plants before any animals. The order of events known from science is just the opposite. 1:1-2:3 God creates light and separates light from darkness, and day from night, on the first day. Yet he didn't make the light producing objects (the sun and the stars) until the fourth day (1:14-19). And how could there be "the evening and the morning" on the first day if there was no sun to mark them? 1:3-5 God spends one-sixth of his entire creative effort (the second day) working on a solid firmament. This strange structure, which God calls heaven, is intended to separate the higher waters from the lower waters. 1:6-8 Plants are made on the third day before there was a sun to drive their photosynthetic processes (1:14-19). 1:11 God lets "the earth bring forth" the plants, rather than creating them directly. Maybe Genesis is not so anti-evolution after all. 1:11 In an apparent endorsement of astrology, God places the sun, moon, and stars in the firmament so that they can be used "for signs". This, of course, is exactly what astrologers do: read "the signs" in the Zodiac in an effort to predict what will happen on Earth. 1:14 God makes two lights: "the greater light [the sun] to rule the day, and the lesser light [the moon] to rule the night." But the moon is not a light, but only reflects light from the sun. And why, if God made the moon to "rule the night", does it spend half of its time moving through the daytime sky? 1:16 "He made the stars also." God spends a day making light (before making the stars) and separating light from darkness; then, at the end of a hard day's work, and almost as an afterthought, he makes the trillions of stars. 1:16

WOW that's awesome 😎. Happy Easter everyone He's alive forevermore AMEN 🙏 ❤️ 👏. I've been watching Daily Dose of ministry's videos since last year so this guy's channel is really helpful especially on RU-vid and social media but I'm glad he had astrophysicist Hugh Ross on his fine tuning Apologetics lessons. This has nothing and everything to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college graduate. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't. I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict. Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers. Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of macro Evolutionary biology whereas I accept micro Evolution like speciation and adaptation but not macro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word. Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant

- Jesus was crucified on a ***Wednesday*** as the prophecy in the Old Covenant/Testament Book of Daniel foretold which happened. Jesus rose on Saturday before the evening which marks the next day on Israelite calendar [after 6pm is considered the next day]. - It's not Easter which is a pagan holiday, it's actually Passover, the Apostles would have ***never*** celebrated a pagan holiday. Catholicism has made the much of the world believe Easter/ISHTAR is a New Covenant/Testament holiday. It may be argued with strong support, that Scripturally the Catholic Church is the home of the Antichrist system, and false Israel _[Juuz]_ are in control of the Roman Catholic Church, since God/Jesus foretold the final kingdom/empire of mankind _[the kingdom/empire of the Antichrist]_ that will rule before He returns is described in one way as **A woman who rides the best** - the woman represents spiritual haroltry _[what most Israelites did in the Old Covenant/Testament, they would fall into worship of the false 'gods' of pagan nations thus cheating on God/Jesus many times],_ the arguable one world religiion will be the religion of the Antichrist _[ecumenalism]_ which most of the world will embrace _[2Timothy3:1-9 and many other proof text verses],_ and the beast is the ruthless final kingdom / empire that will arise like how Rome was a ruthless kingdom - thus, the Roman Pontiff wears the yarmulke and i once saw a video where the "Rabbi" admits they took over the Roman Catholic Church circa 1000 A.D., so the Roman Pontiff is apparently always a Ju. You must NOT call him "Pope" _[hence why i refer to him as the Roman Pontiff]_ which means "Spiritual Father" which is blasphemous abomination since Jesus taught there is only one Father, HIM in Heaven, and to call no man "Rabbi" _[Master]_ for there is only one that is Jesus the Christ/the _[only]_ God.

The authentic austere Scriptural Jesus the Christ taught "The Way" _[mentioned at least several times in the New Testament]_ not "Christianity" _[hence why you do not see the word "Christianity" in the Scriptures]._ It's Catholicism who has so incomprehensibly, ineffably, unfathomably and successfully deceived most the world for circa 1700+ years to believe that supposedly the authentic austere Scriptural Jesus the Christ taught "Christianity" which is indisputably Roman poly-theist paganism religion of the Roman Empire mixed with lukewarm/Revelation 3:15-16 false teachings _[truth mixed with untruth]_ in the same time frame and that supposedly a true born again remnant believer _[John 3:1-21 qualified adopted child of the the true Scriptural Jesus]_ are supposed to call themselves "Christian."

​@@Byorinexplain

@@Nahash5150 “Everything has a cause.” You literally typed that out as a fact. Then two sentences later, you not only contradicted your claim but you also made a new convenient un-caused cause that is also conveniently a being. Even if it exists, which you’d or someone would have to prove first, why does it have to be a being? And if it exists, then it needs a cause and on and on. All of which is to say that you’re engaging in what’s called special pleading, which is basically a “rules for thee, but not for me” double standard.

@@Byorin God is eternal which is to say he has no beginning or end and therefore has no need of a cause. You are making the mistake of assuming anything in this existence that we all inhabit, which has a beginning and therefore is finite, there is direct comparison. There isn't one. We are finite creatures inhabiting a finite world in a finite universe. Also to dispel this assertion "special pleading" fallacy, before the universe existed there was no time, space or matter. All 3 had to come into existence simultaneously so that which sets these three in motion must exist outside the governance of these three constraints, this is very simple logic. The rules of which you speak to only apply to us, you included, but not to God or whatever you believe is responsible for creation.

@@bearde_mut9731 don’t accuse me of assuming, when that is exactly what you are doing with your god. Not only are you assuming that thing exists, but you’re also assuming it is eternal. How do you know either of those are true, and better yet can you demonstrate it? It looks and sounds like you are trying to talk your god into existence. And if you are going to make an exception fr this god not needing a cause, (AKA special pleading), then why can’t the universe do the same by not having a cause? Maybe the universe is eternal, and it just collapses and expands over and over. Regardless, I do NOT assume to know the origin of reality and this universe, and I’m Ok with admitting that. You should try that out, but you’ll need some humility first. Edit: almost forgot, as far as we know, there was never no matter. Evidence shows it was all condensed into a singularity, which eventually “exploded” and interacted to develop what we now call our universe. If you claim your god existed somehow outside of time, space and matter then you are effectively saying it “existed” at no time, in no place and with no parts at all. That’s a something came from nothing argument.

@@DM-dk7js "science" doesn't show one way or the other if God exists. You are elevating the role of science to that of the religious by that comment. There is not 1 individual set of scientific facts or data that point to God, however any intellectually honest atheist (such as myself) is going to admit that cumulative evidence is strong. The argument would be that throughout physical reality (formation of atoms, placement of cosmological positions, conditions for life, etc) there are just so many conveniences it is hard to see them as random. Maybe the cumulative case not enough to convince you, for example one could make an argument that things only appear to have direction because we are looking at them from our current perspective and looking backwards. But even if you are not convinced the cumulation of evidence should certainly enough to give you pause on any supposed conclusions. And certainly enough for you to take the argument seriously and not arrogantly dismiss it. That arrogance is a sign of dogmatic commitment to science, which again elevates "science" to be just a modern religion.

​@@kos-mos1127 Ahhhh there you are again CHAOS... the Psalm 14/Romans 1:18-32 Hall of Fame member, once again showing you clearly are quite beguiled by the first sinner, that ole pioneer in rebellion against God/Jesus who teaches man to do the same by seduction of the carnal / unsaved mind, to easily believe _[due to wilfully walking in spiritual darkness with vanity as your staff]_ that the very foundation of your world-view is built on solid rock and thus rebellion is righteous against God/Jesus, that you supposedly so spectacularly quite intelligent/wise to think clearly due to supposed extensive experiential specialised knowledge and erudition in such things, that your position is supposedly authoritatively credible when your reply reveals rather to be quite the profound colossal delusional one as expected. Your YT account is full of indisputable evidence of this - like any gamer's is - they are perma-juveniles never wanting to truly spiritually grow up - they spend so much time and energy wasting the short time they have earth to play video games _[incontrovertibly selfish/self-worship - me me me me]_ when they could be doing something so much more productive serving others in brotherly love......when i was a child, i played many video games, but when i grew up finally, i put those behind me and became a man as Jesus commands...and to waste so much time to play video games when you really get nothing truly important in return that truly helps mankind, what is the point of squandering all that short time we have on earth to only gain bragging rights that you are so good at a video game when in the big picture it's so childish and such a waste of the life God/Jesus gifted us with? Your replies repeatedly demonstrate how corrupted, disordered, fractured, fatally flawed your way of thinking is, pure unadulterated unrestrained totally unsound cognitive and intellection - just nothing but noise, no substance, who hide behind ghost channels like the ne'er do wells they are figuratively hiding in the bushes in the pitch black of night at 3am throwing rocks at those at least attempting to walk in the light like the anonymous absolute cravenists they are in those bushes who expectedly will not put themselves under the harsh and severe scrutiny they put others under because they do not truly care for accountability / owning up to the severe castigations and contumely they accuse their opponents with hence why have phantom channels. Time is running out young one.... Get on the John 3:1-21 Ark by the roads of Mark 1:15, 16:16, Luke 13:1-5, Matthew 18:1-3, John 1:12, Acts 2:38, Romans 6:1-23, 10:9, Galatians 1:7-9, 1Corinthians 3:18-23 and parallel verses before it is too late - this day, because the door is closing and most will not escape the coming inescapable global flood of fire storm but a remnant and you/the unsaved clearly for now are exactly who the true Jesus referred to in Matthew 7:21-23 and parallel verses if you are not truly part of the John 3:1-21 qualified remnant. Selah.

@dawnroberts8701 Science points to God, science is a study and observation. It doesn't explain away a God.

@@GodSoLoved.Yeshuano it really doesn’t. Youre more than welcome to demonstrate that assertion for us tho…

Atheists, Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, and fanatics of all kinds of Religions who DON'T ACCEPT and BELIEVE that the God and Father of Jesus Christ is the True and Sovereign God in their willful opposition of what's written in John 17: 3 also DON'T ACCEPT and BELIEVE that all persons on Earth who honor and obey Jesus Christ as their loving, kind, and merciful Master and Heavenly King and believe his teachings too about the "Kingdom of God" and "Resurrection of the Dead" as written and recorded in Luke 4, 43 and John 11: 25, 26 will also be honored and rewarded in return by the GOD and Father of Jesus Christ with ETERNAL LIFE and existence on Earth without sufferings, pains, griefs, sickness, and death as written in the Bible, in Revelation 21: 3, 4. Atheists, Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, and fanatics of all kinds of Religions who DON'T ACCEPT and BELIEVE the teaching of Jesus Christ about the "RESURRECTION of the DEAD" also DON'T ACCEPT and BELIEVE that loving, kind, and respectful persons on Earth who died recently and thousands of years ago like Abel, Noah, Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Job, Ruth, Naomi, King David, Daniel, Jesus Christ's Followers and disciples, and many others will all be RESURRECTED back to life in the right and proper time so they can happily, abundantly, and peacefully live and exist on earth forever as subjects and citizens of the "KINGDOM of GOD" and fully enjoy the eternal love, kindness, goodness, generosities, compassions, favors, and blessings of GOD and his Christ for eternity under the loving and kind rulership, guidance, and protection of Jesus Christ as his GOD and Father's Chosen King and Ruler of the heavens and the earth as written in Revelation 11: 15.

God and His word are not real based on a person's belief. They are both alive and real! Fact - The Bible is the most proven and authenticated book ever written.

@@sheilacoleman761 Ironically enough.That's your subjective personal opinion and nothing more than that

We now know that the universe was created 13.787 ±0.020 billion years. This has been checked, proven and measured with many tools and they all agree. It is not just space that came to be 13.787 billion years ago, but time also. The universe is finite and expanding. Biblical Hebrew has a smaller vocabulary than English. In biblical Hebrew, there is no word for universe. Instead, the Hebrew phrase that is translated “the heavens and the earth” is used to refer to the universe-the entirety of physical reality. The phrase is used thirteen times in the Old Testament, always referring to all matter, energy, space, and time in the universe. Just as the Bible stated thousands of years ago, the universe as a beginning and thus a beginer. The Bible written thousands of years ago as NOT been rewritten like scientific books (the universe had no beginning error). Yet, it got it all correct! The law of cause and effect, is a law. To deny the existence of a Creator is an error.

That man i think you are referring to is Louis Pasteur the founder of microbiology and immunobiology; *"Little science takes you away from God, but more of it takes you to Him."*

@@RemnantDiscipleLazzaro-Rev1217 Yes, Pasteur! Thank you!!! But by "that man" I meant the one being interviewed haha

Yes, you can help it. If I can be brought back to the faith after 15 years of hardcore atheism, surely an agnostic is not that difficult. What is keeping you from believing?

@@RealMJSr I don’t know that’s the thing I wanna believe n it make sense but it’s like how tho how can someone just have powers n be eternal if I knew god was real and he afterlife was real my life would be so mich better life is short

@@AgentSmoovee Is it a logical/knowledge barrier or emotional barrier to you believing?

​@AgentSmoovee Please just dont believe what everyone believes. Lets find out what Truth is for ourselves. Dont say you are an agnostic .such things is not real . When you Identify yourself as someone then you start to believe it which only brings confusion. Be honest with yourself and acknowledge that you do not know. Everyone is just playing games with themselves .Very deep down they also dont know but says that they do because the Bible said so or Jesus did this and that. Maybe what is in the Bible is true but believing it is not Truth. Because belief is Memory.Memory is something dead .It doesnt exist .Truth can never be Belief,Memory,Knowledge or a Thought because it is alive

We all have a father, and it's possible for him to not be physically around to help you when you're in need. It's not difficult to believe in the father while he's not in your life, but to not believe in him would seem like extra, illogical work for your mind to force into consideration. Take the easy path of what's reasonable and it may ease the stress you're causing yourself by doing mental gymnastics.

It seems so

I don’t know. Where are you?

The first one anywhere is always God. 😃💕

No it doesn’t. God hasn’t been proven by science. Not even close.

@@DM-dk7js It sure helps find Him.

@@imspiker3645no. As I already said, it doesn’t and hasn’t in any way shape or form. Quite the opposite.

@@DM-dk7js Lol if you think so, science doesn't disprove God on the contrary the more we know about cells and Genetic the more it's obvious that it has proof of design hence why abiogenesis is virtually impossible to prove 🙃

@@imspiker3645no. That’s 100% false. Give evidence of design. I dare you.

What are you trying to understand? It's origin or something else?

@@jesterprivilege: well my thinking goes along this line: we humans are trying to explain what we see in the universe a priori, for years many in modern science felt that the universe was itself eternal, then Hubble came along and hence the Big Bang theory. Scientists and theologians now seemed to get along with the knowledge of there being a beginning (though the age of the universe was argued) Fast forward to the James Webb telescope and all explanations are thrown out the window again. Are we indeed living in a matrix or just at a loss to how God spoke things into existence rather than naturalistic and materialistic means?! The latter really gets the scientific community riled!!!! Quite frankly I wasn’t there, and being the level of complexity that exists points to there being a God, I’d say that his word is a true witness, us finite creatures will be hard pressed in the future to keep coming up with explanations 🤔

It is the resurrection that proves all of Jesus’ claims. William Lane Craig and Gary Habermas each have their own case for the reliability of the New Testament and the historicity of the resurrection. The authors of the New Testament claim Jesus’ disciples were not only first hand eyewitnesses to the resurrection (John20), but that many were also executed for their testimony (Acts12). If the resurrection did not occur, why did these disciples go to their death claiming it was true? The Bible is not the only historical source for this. For example, Pliny the Younger not only recorded the first generation of Christians, but also executed many himself if they did not renounce their faith.

@@christisking1576the resurrection hasn’t been proven lol. So you can’t say something unproven proves something else unproven 😂

@@DM-dk7js brother, my point was that NOTHING has ever been proven

@@DM-dk7js That's the fallacy of interpreting absence of evidence as evidence of absence. We have eye witness testimony that it occurred *and* the historical evidence that many of the disciples were tortured and executed for their testimony to the fact. Do people die because of lies? Sure, but nobody willingly dies for a lie they know to be a lie. So if you have 2000 year old sources that refute that the crucifixion and resurrection I am all ears. Keep in mind that while we have exquisite accounts via the inerrant word of God, aka the Bible, we also have extra biblical sources that confirm the existence of Christ, that confirm he was crucified and even confirm that over 500 witnesses claimed to have seen the risen Christ. Which at that time would have put each and every one of them in serious danger of being tortured and executed.

It's evidence that points directly to a God. We don't have proof an ape like animal turned into a human, it's speculation a theory.
