<<@CrossExamined says : *Download FREE* Cheat Sheet “The 4-Point Case For Christianity” https://cutt.ly/ZYMC4nl>> <<@FaithFinanceMath2 says : Thanks!>> <<@zeddicuszorrander3599 says : If we agree the universe had a beginning, it's still a long way to get to the Biblical God. Probably, the next step would be to explain how your beliefs about God match up to reality. Does the world look like it's functioning by a personal, all-loving, all-just God? Does the Bible? No, they don't. Even if you ask, "Does the world look like it's operating by man's fallen nature," and use the free will arguments, you're not going to convince me to convert to Christianity. These arguments turn me off to Christianity because essentially what you're saying is "God cares more about us having free will than he is about helping us," and there really isn't a way to make it sound different because we don't see a proper balance of free will and justice in the world around us.>> <<@littlecoloreddots says : I'm having trouble with your logic. Why must the creator of space, time and matter not be made of space, time and matter? I am flesh and bone and was created by my parents, who were flesh and bone.>> <<@badideass says : ... is to provide evidence for your claims, otherwise us atheists will dismiss you from any sort of logical and reasonable conversation>> <<@1godonlyone119 says : Jesus did not rise from the dead -- the disciples robbed the grave. Also, God is immortal, so if Jesus ever died, under ANY circumstance, then he was not God. According to Christians, Jesus did indeed die. Therefore, Jesus was not God. Jesus also never claimed to be God.>> <<@1godonlyone119 says : Turek believes (wrongly) that there are at least two gods: 1. What he calls "the god of the Bible," and, 2. Allah (who is actually the same person as Elohim, which is one of the biblical names for God) This incorrect belief of Turek's demonstrates the fact that he is a polytheist. His polytheistic belief system is wrong, however -- in reality, there is only one God.>> <<@1godonlyone119 says : There is only one God, and he is not of the Bible. Turek's use of the odd term "the God of the Bible" strongly implies that he thinks there's more than one God, which means that he is actually a polytheist, even though he falsely claims to be a monotheist.>> <<@1godonlyone119 says : There is only one God, and he is not a Christian. Turek's use of the odd term "the Christian God" strongly implies that he thinks there's more than one God, which means that he is actually a polytheist, even though he falsely claims to be a monotheist.>> <<@1godonlyone119 says : It's so sad that Frank is a polytheist that falsely claims he's following a monotheistic religion. I pray that God removes the polytheistic veil of deception from Frank's eyes very soon....>> <<@1godonlyone119 says : It's so sad that Frank is a polytheist that falsely claims he's following a monotheistic religion. I pray that God removes the polytheistic veil of deception from Frank's eyes very soon....>> <<@moonshoes11 says : Why does he continue to use arguments that has been dismantled time and time again? For example, science doesn’t claim the universe came from nothing. A singularity isn’t “nothing”. Yet, your guest is still using this argument.>> <<@moonshoes11 says : Please call into He Atheist Experience show.>> <<@Andrew-it7fb says : If they already believe that some type of God exists, then they're not an atheist. Also, Stephen Hawking posited that the universe had no beginning.>> <<@someone6170 says : "And all you need to do at that point is to see if Jesus rose from the dead" 2:49. LOL>> <<@MybridWonderful says : Turek is onto something when he says most people around the world believe in god. The recent rise in "Nones" in the US to 29% can be a bit misleading. Pew studies have shown that the number of atheists has remained relatively constant, around 4%. So what's going on. Occam's Razor applies, the simplest answer is that the religious are failing to do the job of maintaining religiosity in the culture. This is what we'd expect, people who believe in god and the supernatural but leaving religion if the religious are failing to maintain religious cultural. The funny aspect of this failure is that it is human nature and not religious dogma that drives people to blame others rather than blaming themselves. Religious people are blaming anyone and everyone for the failure of religion to maintain its hold on people in the modern era. This is fine by me. One cannot fix a problem if one is trying to fix the wrong cause, in this case a belief atheism is to blame. So I'm actually all for it, keep blaming atheism so we'll continue to see a steady rise in the percentage of Nones in America. I sometimes wonder if the Evangelicals ever stop to ponder just how immoral and repugnant Trump is to the moral and good people of America. My guess is the Evangelicals will double down on immorality and go for some even less moral than Trump once Trump is out of the picture and continue to blame liberals, atheism, and communism for all their religious persecution complexes.>> <<@Knight_of_BAAWA says : The most effective way is to not; you will lose. You have nothing. If you like being humiliated, though--by all means try.>> <<@zacharymorris9917 says : The Christian God cannot exist in the same way that a square circle cannot exist. An existent thing cannot have self-contradictory properties. The Christian God has self-contradictory properties.>> <<@ttirrem says : This is funny. Everything Frank claims as proof has been debunked so many times it's getting ridiculous. 50 years I've been looking, still no proof of any god yet. dum de dum dum>> <<@stephenrandell7152 says : The cycle of brainwashing continues!>> <<@a7c777 says : How would you go about proving Jesus rose from the dead to an atheist?>> <<@Scorpion-my3dv says : Love. We should always show God's love regardless of who we are talking to. 1 Corinthians 13>> <<@JosiahFickinger says : The universe's existence is dependent upon a choice. If something like matter always existed, the matter doesn't have the power to just change suddenly after an eternity.>> <<@John14-6... says : When I had a discussion with an athiest at my workplace, it didn't go as smooth as you made it seem it should and that's probably partly due to your speaking ability. So anyways I had gotten stuck on the Cosmological argument when I had said how can nothing come from something he refuted with well what about your God and of course I said that God was eternal. He did not want to accept that even though the universe had been proven to have a beginning that had to have a beginner. So the same way that we don't have a reason how God always existed, he would say well we don't know how the universe began>> <<@adamsanchez222 says : Is there a video on talking to none believers in Christ on why the God of the universe is the Christian God? This video talks about how to reason that a god exists but is there a video talking about why that god is the God of the Bible? Thanks!>> <<@psyfi5428 says : Most effective way to what end? Conversion? To speak the truth, the only reliable way to convert an atheist is with the following tactics: 1. Pick off those who have no critical thinking skills for whatever reason. The elderly, the mentally handicapped, and the young ones should be the most effective targets. And those who are emotionally vulnerable for whatever reason are very nice targets as well. If they are susceptible to scams or cults, they are also ripe to be converted. 2. Alternatively, outbreed them. Islam is one of the fastest growing religions. You know why? Because they have on average a lot of kids. That doesn't have anything to do with interactions with atheists, though, so ignore that one. 3. Erode their personality with clever information control. This one requires a lot of time and teamwork, though. The way this works is you befriend them and convince other Christians to befriend them as well. As their social environment consists mostly of Christians, their beliefs and attitudes might slowly align. But make sure to replace parasocial contacts as well. I dunno how to do that last part but it should theoretically work out this way.>> <<@johnfroelich8554 says : Frank should stick with his own excellent narrations. He doesn't need tepid guest speakers>> <<@johnharrison6745 says : If they're of the anti-theistic/New-Atheistic bent [APPROPRIATE term there], just LAUGH-AT them. That's what they're FOR. 😉😜>> <<@stefan00017 says : Јован 3:16 Јер Богу тако омиле свет да је и Сина свог Јединородног дао, да ниједан који Га верује не погине, него да има живот вечни.>> <<@jotomato says : You got their website wrong. It should be got questions, not God questions>> <<@Glorious716 says : ✝️❤️‍🔥🙏🏽>> <<@honorb4glory606 says : Atheists are liars. They say they "lack belief" in God, or "aren't convinced," but every atheist I've ever heard speak about God, simply dislikes or hates God/Christianity.>> <<@MESkeptic says : It's admirable that some Christians are willing to talk with atheists and other skeptics. Rather than attempting to persuade each other, though, the time might be better spent talking about the values we share. If it's really important to you to persuade an atheist, or even to present your best argument, apologetics is not the approach to take. Why? The arguments of apologetics are designed to comfort doubting Christians, and not to persuade actual skeptics. And most skeptics aren't trying to deconvert Christians, and there never was a war on Christmas, despite what you've been told. If Christians are in danger today, it's probably danger from other Christians.>> <<@patrickr9642 says : Eye opening>> <<@sson12 says : 9:16 If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice. Job>> <<@brenrichpasion says : atheist are just morally corrupt peoeple that cant be saved>> <<@iwilldi says : What is a timeless spaceless mind? It is nothing!>> <<@tTtt-ho3tq says : Here's the thing. If there's a beginning, that means A begging. Which means what actually happened. Did it begin with the BB? Or did it start in 6 day creations? Where stars, the sun, the earth, air, water, the mountains, the rivers, the oceans, the lakes, birds, animals, fish, (insects, bacterias, viruses?, microbes, etc) and two humans came to existence in fully formed, fully grown and fully matured out of nothing in 6 days. (Which is next to impossible to happen by the order of nature we know of today.) Or space, time, sub-atomic particles, hydrogens, heliums, stars, other heavier elements, galaxies, molecules, planets, the sun, the earth, air, water, organic molecules, single cell life, bacterias, etc, etc in 13.7 billion years. And that's how we're developed to learn the order of nature today, from Copernicus's heliocentric to Galileo's relativity to Newton's gravity to the germ theory to evolution by natural section to nature's water cycles to Maxwell's electromagnetism to Einstein's theory of gravity to quantum mechanics to the string theory to whatever there're today.>> <<@170221dn says : Surely supplying all the actual evidence nice? Could someone list the evidence that God exists?>> <<@SilasCole88 says : I think the Transcendental Argument is a pretty powerful argument. But the Bible tells us that "The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple." Psamls 19:7. So in a way, the moral argument would be the best because let's face it, we are dealing with a heart issue, not a mind issue.>> <<@matthewcross7654 says : Frank is showing his intellectual dishonesty again. The number of times that each of his individual points have been dealt with and refuted by a number of atheists (see anyone from Cosmic Skeptic, Rationality Rules and Paulogia to Viced Rhino, even Hitchens put him in his place over a decade ago) and the fact that he addresses none of it leads me to believe that he knows that he is unable to refute counter arguments and would much rather lead his little flock while assuring them that he knows what he's talking about and they just need to repeat what he says. It's just sad to see at this point. Please come up with new material to bring to the table or just retire into obscurity.>> <<@hiddenrambo328 says : Supernatural things require a supernatural source! Super = Above or Beyond! Surgery is Beyond nature! Surgery comes from the Human Mind! Human mind is supernatural! Human mind requires a supernatural source! = A God like entity is required! (Mind) The universe is space, matter and time! The universe started! Everything that starts comes from something that is greater than itself! Space, Matter and time must come from something Space less, timeless and Immaterial! = A God like entity is required! (Body) To have objective Morales requires an objective standard of good unchanging to measure against cannot be based on subjective things like people! Objective Morales exist! = A God like entity is required! (Spirit) These natural observations match the Christian claim of the Bible that God is three in one like above is 3 in this 1 Universe, that we are made in the image of God with Mind, Body and Spirit and that nature - space, matter and time testify to us that there is a creator. Just ask yourself what was first everything we know has started, something had to already exist to start everything what do you think that first thing is a particle, energy, a wobble gobble doesn't matter if it's the first cause that made everything else start meaning it's the source for everything than that thing whatever it is, is called God which is a title for the first being!>> <<@SomedaySeven says : There are 2 realms, where God experiences time differently in one: 1,000 Flesh Realm years is 1 Spirit Realm day. And, if God thought to create something and in a certain order, that implies a past, present, and future existed before Creation. So, there's always been time, while space and matter were created (flesh matter and the spiritual form of it). God just created a different experience of the passage of time, unique to our Flesh Realm. He will always Live eternally, no matter how He chooses to interact with the different forms of time. 2 Peter 3:8 (KJV) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. Be blessed!>> <<@sierraclark6129 says : “If you declare with your mouth “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). Now is the time to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Obey His commands and repent of your sins because Jesus is coming back soon. Tomorrow isn’t promised.>> <<@michelemond9968 says : I’d love to hear the rest of his argument!>> <<@Nick-ij5nt says : I often have debates with atheists and use the cosmological argument but it doesn't work because then they just say "Well, just because the universe had a beginning that doesn't mean that beginning was the product of design or intention from a supernatural being." which is technically true.>> <<@alanbaraka9800 says : What is the most effective way to interact with an atheist? Simple. Provide testable evidence to demonstrate your god is real.>> <<@Syed_12 says : ( Do Christians And Jews and "OTHER" non-Muslims go to Heaven? ) Quran 2:62 '' Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,->ANY<- who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. '' ( According to the Quran Christians and Jews worship TRUE God ) (Quran 3:113-114) '' Not all of them are alike: Of the People of the Book ( Christians and Jews ) are a portion that stand (For the right): They rehearse the Signs of God all night long, and they prostrate themselves in adoration. They believe in God and the Last Day; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: They are in the ranks of the righteous.'' Note: According to the Quran that Jesus is not God nevertheless Christians still worship one TRUE God. ( Allah Is The Protector Of Monasteries, Churches, Synagogues And The Mosques ) Quran 22:40 [They are] those who have been evicted from their homes without right - only because they say, "Our Lord is God ." And were it not that God checks the people, some by means of others, there would have been demolished monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques in which the name of God is much mentioned. And God will surely support those who support Him. Indeed, God is Powerful and Exalted in Might. ( Why Are There So Many Different Religions In The World ? ) Quran 5 48 ''...... If God wanted He could have made all of you a single nation.( ie single religion ) But He willed otherwise in order to test you in what He has given you;(scriptures) therefore try to excel one another in good deeds. Ultimately you all shall return to God; then He will show you the truth of those matters in which you '' DISPUTE.'' NOTE: Quran 3:85 ''If anyone desires a religion other than Islam ("submission" to God), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good)'' My explanation of above verse Islam mean "submission" to God ( The above verse saying is that God will not accept a religion from the "MUSLIM" and the Non-Muslims but total "submission" to God.) Question: How Can Muslim And the Non-Muslim "submit" to the God? Answer: Be kind to other human beings and Do not lie, Do not steal, Do not cheat, Do not hurt others, Do not be prideful and Do the charity work. Note: If you obeyed all the above you submitted to God. ( God Allow Inter Faith Marriage And Eat Food From the Christian And Jew And Vice Versa ) Quran 5;5 ''This day [all] good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture ( Christian and Jew) is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And [lawful in marriage are] chaste women from among the believers and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture ( Christian and Jew) before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking [secret] lovers. And whoever denies the faith - his work has become worthless, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers.'' Muslim, Christian And Jew And All Human Worship The '' Same God '' with their own ancestor-inherent understand of God. Quran 29:46 '' And do not argue with the People of the Scripture except in a way that is best, except for those who commit injustice among them, and say, "We believe in that which has been revealed to us and revealed to you. > >And our God and your God is one << and we are Muslims [in submission] to Him." Note: God is God of all- every humans not just Abrahimic faiths. It will be a shirk to set up a God for others. God answered prayed regardless of their religion. Question to Muslim and Christian: God / Allah only answer your pray and God / Allah does not answer non Muslim / non Christian pray? Did Allah '' Cancel '' all other religions Judaism and Christianity? Quran 5:48 '' And We have revealed to you, [O Muúammad], the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. >>>To each of you We prescribed a law and a method<<< Had Allah willed, He would have made you >>one nation<< [united in religion], but [He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good.

'' YOUR " religion / sect / foot long beard is NOT a > qualification < for to enter the Paradise. * The > qualification < to enter Paradise is > Faith in God and Good Work <. Quran 41;30 Surely those who say, “Our Lord is God,” and then remain steadfast, the angels descend upon them, ˹saying,˺ “Do not fear, nor grieve. Rather, rejoice in the good news of Paradise, which you have been promised. BUT Atheists / Apostate will go to the hellfire My comments: The '' BASIC '' message of God to the human is that '' YOU '' believe in God and be kind to other human beings and in the RETURNED God will reward you with a new life in Paradise. * The Quran ONLY guides you how to become a good human being "Nothing Else". * You are a good human being or a bad human being that is YOUR choice. * No one can force you to become a good human being. * You MUST work HARD to become a good human being. * Why should ''YOU'' do good deeds and avoid bad deeds? * Do Good - it's for You. Do Bad - It's against you. * '' YOUR'' life is a TEST from God that you will choose to do either Good or Bad. * Find the excuse to help others and forgive others NOT the other way around. * '' YOUR '' final destination is either Hell or Heaven. * So work HARD toward choice of YOUR destination. Quran 17:7 " If you do good, you will do so for your own good. And if you do evil, it will be to your own loss."///>> <<@electric336 says : Love GotQuestions and love Cross Examined. Great tools for building up knowledge of the faith.>> <<@Ed-uc1lf says : As Frank has said many times, there are plenty of evidence for God's existence (now, if the it will be accepted as such, it's another story). Then, when atheists don't have answers (where in most cases no one is allowed to infer the "God of the gaps" as a reasonable option) their answer is: we just have not found it yet... like, "... give it some time, science will discover it". At this point it is pretty much obvious that while they are waiting, they have "faith"... (and they would never admit to it) but sure enough, at a minimum, they have "hope". So, Christians have hope and faith (which must be discarded according to atheists living by evidence) while, atheists have not yet evidence for questions that only God answers by requiring faith and hope. It is self-defeating to present a God who gives us free will, except for when He forces Himself (or the knowledge of) upon us. Even if I was God I wouldn't want that!...Lol... and for sure I would not follow that one either! One must really think and ask himself what is the character of God or, when/if He created us, for what purpose? Who is God and/or what He wants from us? In the heart of the question (Does God exist?), for a Christian it is spiritual and existential, meanwhile, for an atheist it is intellectual and inconsequential. I usually ask them first: Why not God? Based of their answers, I can then start drawing the level of honesty and seriousness to the conversation.>>
