You "born agains" literally have a problem with anything that doesn't fit in your perfect little box. The world doesn't work that way. People are different, ideas are different, and your preachiness is annoying.

Pantheism is a belief that the reality is one, undivided and eternal. It is all one.

Idolatry is the worship of false idols. Pantheists argue that physical cosmos, divinity, and god are all one thing, but they also argue that god embodies moral indifference and doesn’t accept worship. You can’t worship god in pantheism. A 2 second google search of the term ‘pantheism’ would have shown that. This wasn’t difficult to get right.
@JDSileo Says:
The bible does say these things. The bible is our history. I say our because biologically we know we are all related. The bible does not refute this nor does the science of biology dispute this, but rather confirm this. History is also operative here. History is written by men. Not god. The word is written by god. IF all the copies of all the bible were destroyed today including online versions, the only records that would remain would be in the heads of people. Not just in one person nor a group of people but ALL people. The word will endure any burning. If ALL books were to burn then the word would still endure. The stories and histories of the gods of egypt and of Israel, and of Saudi Arabia, and Rome and India and China and all the world will remain as they always have. The holy ghost is in all creation. God is the creator of all and is all. Therefore the collective histories of us all are valid. Who we are to know what histories are true and false in ALL cases. Who claims to know the difference between good and evil? Who claims to have eaten of the fruit after Jesus has cleansed us of this sin? I say unto you that as your forebearers have preached and the forebearers of all children of all the great houses of the world have preached, you should do unto others as you would have them do unto you. You shall love thy enemy as your neighbor and your neighbor as yourself. Do the words of the one we call Christ not say the same thing? Was Jesuses words written before Jesus spoke them? Were they not true in the moments he spoke them. Did The Phrases not covet the Word for themselves? Did Christ our Lord not point out the hypocrisies of the Pharisees in his time? God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost are but one God. We are not our flesh we are our Ghost. All that we are and all that we see are most certainly that which is I Am. The Pantheists may use a different word, but they are quite literally correct and not incompatible with the teachings of our shared history. I know your heart is pure and you do not think of yourself as a Phrases. Nobody who has the heart to make videos about their faith does it out of hate. A pantheist does not reject God. They join God and recognize their place in the Infinite tapestry of creation. Their place as a cell of his magnificent body that he created for himself and all of us. Is to acknowledge oneself as a part of god a sin? Should we separate ourselves from God I pray that you find harmony with the children of God who do not wish to separate themselves from God in anyway shape or form. Aka The Pantheists

I think the important distinction here to make is theres a difference between worshipping a bear as a God and understanding that the bear is just a part of the whole. Also, I dont believe that I am God, I am a part of him, or rather 'the holy spirit is within me'. I think it boils down to people who have had a spiritual experience trying to share with others how they felt and the insights that they have gained from the experience. You cannot put into words that which has no words. It will always and only be misunderstood by the people who have not had an experience... Like that Jesus fellow you guys speak so fondly of. I can hear the contradictions in your entire argument based off assumptions you make about that which you don't understand. I'm glad you have your blind faith though.

You seem insulted at the idea that the creator deserves the credit for the creation

All religions are superstitious nonsense! If there is a deity it needs to show up and let us know what it really wants. Otherwise believing in a fairytale is a kind of mental illness.

"There is one God, and it is not us." Abso-freakin'-lutely. Worship the Creator, not the creation.

Jesus christe followers believe Jesus has come as God,s son in flesh came to show right path to all to worship none but Him God all father all creator one of all God omnipresent omnipotent omniscient everliving never dieing from ever forever living.. none his creature or creation can be God but He only all keeper destroyer and any His way keeper.

AMEN 🙏👊 ❤️. No I'm not a pantheist because that makes Atheists and theists God, living and non living creatures and things God SOOOO YEAH 😂. No people aren't Good just decent sinners only God is actually Good because we're all capable willing to do Evil under certain circumstances and situations. I love sister Melissa Dougherty and Cross Examined ministry teachers. Creation and design requires a Creator we call God. 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 student. 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 " On The Origin of 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.

Hilarious 🤣 Now lets see what the earliest Church believes, We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of all things visible and invisible. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made 😮 When you research know and believe the rest, you will be in communion with Christ and his Church 🙏 God bless 🙏
@user-vm5yk2js6w Says:
This video shows it in a very clear way: Christianity , as any other religion, is a subjective interpretation of a possible objective god/gods, with subjective human made morality and rules out of their historical context. It tries to sell to the people something, that is subjective, as an objective truth.
@somerandom3247 Says:
Christianity isn't pantheistic. It's polytheistic.
@AFuhrer13 Says:
This helped me a lot. Thank you.

But god in the bible makes that claim. So going against that isn't biblical now is it
@DynamicGracer Says:
What about all the verses with other Gods!?!?!?
@mikesarno7973 Says:
Pantheism is not worshipping idols. Please, be fair. You're making us Christians look ignorant.

God bless CE.
@daryushowell6530 Says:

@jackalsgate1146 Says:
And you literally worship Yahweh which makes you a Pantheist. Yahweh is the all of all that is (material). The god or spirit of the earth. Chrstns - My god is the creator of all material crap or the creator of matter. Also Chrstns - But I'm not a Pantheist. Chrstns - My god is Infinite, he has no boundaries, and he is all of all that is; which means, he has no limits or boundaries. Response - If you are going to say that you're not a Pantheist then you better admit that your god has limits, he is not Infinite, and he is not all of all that is. The amount of twisting this woman does is incredible. I also find it quite revealing how Melissa lies and says Pantheists worship idols. One more thing - Pantheism is not New Age.
@oddoutdoors Says:
You say christianity is monotheistic but there is eloheme and yahweh and jesus and the holy spirit all on equal footing. Also yahweh is a jealous god who punishes his people for worshipping the gods of others. You people don't read your own book and when you do you apply your false preconceived notions to it instead of reading it as it is. You also say that god is omnipresent which would mean that you are pantheists as god is in everything and therefore everything is god. The christian perspective is nothing but lies upon lies upon lies.

Seems to be a large return to studying the word. Nice.

God is all. We are of God. But shall die like men. Psalms 82. Jesus is God is form.
@TheContrarian32 Says:
That isn’t the definition of pantheism lol. Correct that error and re-do your video so it is more intellectually honest and at least starts from the correct premise
@Ricardo-kv5tk Says:
Just read Deut the way God dealt with idol worship was on a whole other level “For I am a jealous God”
@Gek1177 Says:
Pantheism isn't calling us God it's saying that the universe is God. Seriously, where did you go to school?
@txexpress1973 Says:
Good explaination.
@mattr.1887 Says:
As a Christian, you worship your own thoughts and feelings about God. I'm not sure how this is really any better in the big scheme of things.
@markreed2576 Says:
I see this a lot, you must speak them down and correct them.
@NickyTheLesser Says:
If EVERYTHING existed IN THE MIND OF GOD before god created EVERYTHING then, in a real sense - Christianity is Pantheism as well as being POLYTHEISTIC (trinity and all THAT)! Therefore, Christianity is a Polytheistic religion with a generous splash of Pantheism! Sorry.

@Moist._Robot Says:
So this jealous weak god gets upset because humans worshipped other things than him? Clearly blackmail to guilt you into believing this rubbish.
@YeshuaSaves3 Says:
Yep, I used to try to mesh New Age beliefs with Christianity and my flesh would cringe when Jesus would contradict my beliefs. So instead of listening to my conscience, I suppressed the truth in my unrighteousness. Praise God that He saved me from myself.
@stevendoty9408 Says:
In a way... somewhat true. As God created all, then all has a tiny, tiny, part of god.
@SpiritLife Says:
pantheism is annoying
@Hydroverse Says:
To a degree, I accept the logic behind pantheism since it rejects something out of nothing. I personally think that God can't create anything in the ultimate sense. For instance, God can't create yellow because then for God to invent would mean God would discover. God ceases to be omniscient if God doesn't know what God will do.
