🤨 Should do a video, *HONORING GOD AND REFUSING THE COVID VACCINE.* Because so many good folk lost their jobs on that issue. 🙏🏽❤

Daniel and his buddies were out in a similar situation. We shoukd act like they did because God will act like he did.

Im in sales industry and I am a Christian.. The thing is in sales sometimes people lie to get more sales than their competition but I don't want to that?
@cnault3244 Says:
"When your workplace asks you to do something that goes against your Christian values, what’s the best way to respond?" What if the workplace asks you to do something against your Hindu values or your Muslim values or your Wiccan values? Or do only Christian values matter?
@DougInPA1 Says:
If he spoke like that at a job he is being paid to do and refuses to follow orders, thats insubordination and he would be fired. He would be told if he doesnt want to follow the direction of the boss, then leave, its that simple.

Thankyou Dr Turek you ve been an inspiration to me in my Christian walk .
@hasone1848 Says:
If you truly treat everyone with respect and dignity I sure no one will have any problems. It's when you get someone in the medical field (or any field) that will withhold their services from someone who is LGBTQ, like the man who would not make a cake for a gay couple, that is the opposite of treating someone with respect and dignity.

Amen

I’ve had times where I told customers that they would find peace and freedom if they prayed and put their faith in Jesus. Only for my manager to tell me not bring up Jesus because some of the customers may not be Christians (The community is mostly Jewish). It’s rather disheartening.
@deboking9 Says:
How POLITICS are using LGBTQ is a HUGE violation of human rights Indoctrinated by John Locke, the Father of Liberalism, in which the United States and Democracy stands on since 1777. Convicting and condemning people for their beliefs is LITERALLY FACISM & COMMUNISM. There is no proof of physical harm to any LGQTB person by not adopting their view.

The book of Daniel in Babylon. Nuff said.

It's possible to stand for Christ in the workplace. Just use wisdom and God will provide the opportunities.

That's going to be the same as signing your own resignation letter.

Society has fake tolerance.
@robertlewis9132 Says:
Not enough context here. Going through training does not mean indoctrination, it means having a basis of understanding of issues involved with lbgt issues. In the medical field there all many different subsets that require treatment. I firmly doubt the existence of a god, but if my job involved intricacies pertaining to christian or muslim or jewish sensitivities I need to acknowledge and understand such details as part of the job.

This Diversity Inclusion Equity DIE for short has gone to far I went to a football game 3 months back and there was a Rainbow Flag in amongst the Cheer Squad with my team which read Tiger Pride I made the decision then not to renew my membership next year This political Ideology is being pushed on everyone everywhere
@oftin_wong Says:
What if you express a 'divine view' that doesn't 'tolerate' homosexuality ?
@dudead2729 Says:
0:50 0 tolerance for bigotry frank 0:55 peoples sexualities shouldn’t be up for debate 1:36 there’s nothing political about peoples sexualities but if you think otherwise you’re probably a bigot 1:53 that’s the thing tho this person is in the medical field they need to be trained properly to deal with these kinds of people. If they refuse to go through this training because they don’t approve of some people (kind of discriminatory) they should most definitely be fired.
@AmranShah Says:
Wow so well said, this will help so many people. Probably good idea to lawyer up.
@chillibeans9519 Says:
I lived this first hand, it's hard. the best thing that works for me is remember people aren't the real enemy.
@170221dn Says:
Poor Christians. There is no one else in the world who yelps about tolerance and persecution the way they do. They are so oppressed when someone stops them from being intolerant of other people. Delusional.
@lilchristuten7568 Says:
Frank is wrong here. You have a right not to go through the training by claiming it as a violation of your rights (specifically your religious right) while ensuring them that you will treat all people equally. However it is absolutely their business what your beliefs are. First because as a Christian you are supposed to stand up for your belief in Christ, second because they have a right to decide if you fit the image that their company wants to project. If they don't want truth being projected then you shouldn't want to work there anyway, and if you're doing your job as a Christian properly (projecting the glory of God within you) then they will notice that you are too good for them to let go because your place of employment should be different from the other places simply because you work there.

Relatable...
@BubbaGump777 Says:
You may get away with it at that point, but you will have a target on your back. As soon as you take a stand against evil, the only one who can keep you where you are is God. Jesus said, "if they hated me, they will hate you ".
@Derek_Baumgartner Says:
A few thoughts on how things like this might work out: -They believe my worldview is wrong. They believe that when Jesus taught regarding the law and sexual ethics that He was wrong, and that He's not the Son of God, and that He's not going to have a judgment day where every last sin will be accounted for. -They also believe my worldview is wrong in that I believe every person is made in the image of God, and that every person I meet is someone Jesus loved enough to die for. Therefore, should I be offended that they believe my worldview is wrong? No. Of course not. -But if I believe their worldview is wrong when it says that sex should be casual - it should be held to a much higher standard than that - they get offended. -If I believe their worldview is wrong when it says that sex between two men or two women is fine - when it is rife with unique diseases, severe self-esteem problems, rampant drug abuse and very high suicide rates - I'm deemed unloving if I believe people should leave such sin behind because there's a much better way to go. -If I believe their worldview is wrong when it says abortion is A-OK - when not only does science make clear that life begins at conception, but also the myriad mental and physical health issues the woman will undergo from taking such a murderous procedure (women who have had abortions are 6x as likely to commit suicide, for example, which is horrifying) - I'm deemed misogynist. The matter is this: stand with God, let Him deal with the consequences, and seek to reflect His love without compromising the truth. I'm far from perfect here. I've a long way to go, but Jesus is worthy.
@royhiggins7270 Says:
Is abortion the supreme eptiome of morality? For the vast majority of human beings...billions upon billions according to Christianity...eternal suffering and burning awaits in hell! In fact if hell is real...the majority of human beings should curse their mothers who were selfish enough to risk eternal suffering for them! Abortion is the most humane thing a mother could ever do...the risk of eternal torture far outweighs any life even eternal life.
@DiscipleShaynePlaylist Says:
Tried working night shifts, abnormal working time. whilst being made to sleep in a house with 5 strange men, who cough splutter slam doors 24hours and have either demonic or mental health issues. So trying to serve God and get a job the circumstances are being made very difficult for me to even be able to make any progress, within the current perimeters i have been set in. And the only alternatives is either move back in with an abusive parent, (where i believe their to be witchcraft or some demonic toxic influence) who wouldnt let me stay their anyway, used to make me sleep in a garage. or to be made homeless again and surrounded by more hostile people :o( How to be a good christian in such times? i was kinda praying for a good home, some christian friends to do life with and maybe make some happy memories along the way. Oh well, praise God anyway. Just keep on trying to help everyone. P.S thank you for all your videos i think there reallly good. and i love the way you also defend the faith. so eloquently and sometimes quite funny. Thank you Doc. Blessings Jesus Is Alive!!! ⛪💕🏃‍♂💨🌏
@kinggenius930 Says:
Still never had a Christian successfully explain to me what demonstrable harm is caused by homosexuality
@vertigo2894 Says:
I like you, and you have made many great arguments but tolerating intolerance is a bit strange. I mean, should we tolerate Hitler's views if he is employed by Hallmark?
@tedoldham7703 Says:
Perhaps asking all those pedophile priests that question., Or maybe ask Jim and Tammy Faye Baker or Jimmy Swaggert perhaps
@savedbymylovegodthelordjes8394 Says:

@zerosteel0123 Says:
I would tell them regardless of whether they exclude or tolerate me or not. Speak the truth in love regardless of the opposition.

Amen. 1 Corinthians 6:18 “Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.“
@technoforever888 Says:
You can try, but I doubt they care. This is just the beginning of having to stand one's ground or go hungry. Trust in the Lord will be our only hope, our only way.

What are your personal Christian values? If I am unhappy in my workplace I would try to find a better job.

@lelouchvibritannia2327 Says:
We had a zoom meeting where were told to change our background to the LGBTQ+ as a show of support to the community during its festive week. I was the only one who didn't change my background even though my company supported and telling us to change a standard signature format where we are required to put our preferred pronouns. I know my rights and they can't force me to do that as long as I'm doing my job properly. I have gay and lesbian friends and relative. I treat everyone with respect but no way I'll raise up their flag knowing what it really represents. It's not acceptance anymore. It's indoctrination. PS: After the LGBTQ+ week, the company had an 'amnesia' and 90% of the people that I exchange emails with don't have their preferred pronouns in their signature. lol
@tTtt-ho3tq Says:
It's not as simple as it sounds. It's more complicated and tricky. It's not only you but also the people you serve or you or the company where you work sell products to. Everybody is equal and has the same rights under our laws of the land. It's like you can't discriminate anybody based on gender, sex ... That stuff. I think it conflicts with our laws of the land. I'm no lawyer or anything but it sounds like me me how about me asking for being torrent for your intolerance. Of course, you may say you're not intolerant of people. You love people. You respect other people. It's just you're not tolerant of their sins because of your faith, your morality. The Christian morality. God's objective morality absolute, that is. Sin is sin. See it all circles back and connects all ... or something. Let's say you were a county clerk in some city for marriage license. A nice couple came to you for a marriage license. Now you'd ask did they have sex already? If so you wouldn't issue it to them. Sin is sin. It's your faith. Or maybe you ask them what kind of sex acts do they do? That would be another reason you wouldn't issue a marriage license either. Sin is sin. Or you've seen her before so you knew she was married before. So maybe you wouldn't issue either. Or maybe they wear clothes in different kinds of materials. Or you might say that's one of the old rules les we don't do anymore but maybe some others might. It's theeir faith, their morality and God's objective morality absolute (to them), too. Or you wait table at a restaurant, some atheists came in. You'd refuse to serve them because to deny God is sin. Not just a sin but it's unforgivable sin. You morally can't serve them because of your personal faith, your morality, God's objective morality absolute. Wouldn't that conflict with our laws of the land, though?

I really needed this one. Thank you.
@calvinkindell9924 Says:
If you're job is forcing you to go against your convictions I'd say it's time to move on GOD has something better in store for you...
@Kd4c Says:
If you are in the medical field and are refusing to learn about lgbtq things then how are you going to help them when they come in for a medical issue. If you refuse to do anything that helps them from a medical standpoint, then you are violating your oath. You should be fired and sued. If you can't do that then get a different job.
@kevinstreeter6943 Says:
I sat through some LGB+ video training. tI did not conflict with my Christian beliefs to sit through that. After the video, the issue never came up.
