Bart Ehrman Destroys Islam in 3 Minutes

Bart Ehrman comments on the Islamic idea that Jesus was not crucified but replaced with someone else. His conclusion is that this is a later fabrication and clearly untrue.

#13 Mark (Mark 8:1-26) "Seeing Jesus Clearly"

The Gospel of Mark: Servanthood, Discipleship, and Following Jesus #13 Mark 8:1-26 “Seeing Jesus Clearly” Sunday, November 28th Discussion/Study Questions Big Idea: Seeing and Responding to Jesus for who he truly is! (Mark 8:1-21) Jesus Shows us the Character of God (Mark 8:1-10) Will we respond like the Pharisees: Resist and Demand (Mark 8:11-13) Will we respond like the Disciples: Doubt and Forget (Mark 8:14-21) Will we respond like the Blind Man: Slowly See and Change (Mark 8:22-26) Ice-Breaker Questions - How was everyone's thanksgiving? What are you looking forward to this Christmas season? Which subjects did you enjoy in school? Which subjects required a lot of instruction and assistance before you "Got it?" Jesus Shows Us the Character of God (8:1-10) - How does Jesus feeding the four thousand show the compassion of God? How does the story of Jesus' miracle feeding show the provision of God? The Disciples of Jesus doubted that anyone could feed the crowd despite the fact that they had already seen Jesus feeding an even larger crowd. How can we doubt God for the very things he has already provided in our life? The people all eat the bread and fish and were satisfied. How does God satisfy our desires for relationship, forgiveness and hope for the future? Will we respond like the Pharisees: Resist and Demand (Mark 8:11-13) - The Pharisees has seen the miracles of Jesus but they resist following Him and continue to demand a sign. How people create an intellectual smokescreen to avoid Jesus in their life? How can we be tempted to make demands on God? Will we respond like the Disciples: Doubt and Forget (Mark 8:14-21) - The disciples are focused on making sure they have enough bread to get through the day while Jesus is trying to teach them deeper spiritual truths. Have you ever been too focused on your immediate physical needs that you didn't see what God was trying to teach you? The disciples doubt Jesus' ability to feed the crowds and they forgot about the ways he already feed others. How can we be tempted to doubt God's goodness and forget how he has provided for us? Will we respond like the Blind Man: Slowly See and Change (Mark 8:22-26) - Ironically, the only person to see Jesus clearly in these stories is the blind man. The blind man obeyed Jesus, didn't give up in the process of healing, and stayed with Jesus until he was transformed. How can we be tempted to give up in the middle of the work that God is doing in our lives? The blind man sees partially, how can we be tempted to be discouraged with the slowness of our spiritual growth? How can we support, encourage, and pray for one another this week? Take Time to Pray Over What You've Learned - Pray to remember that Jesus cares, provides and satisfies. Pray against pride that would resist what God is doing or make demands of God. Ask forgiveness of God for the doubts and spiritual forgetfulness that you experience. Praise the Lord for the ways that he has provided for you, opened your eyes to spiritual reality and showed you compassion.

Meaning, Awe, and the Conceptualization of God | Jordan Peterson Compila...

Over the last few weeks, we have put together a series entitled "Meaning, Awe and the Conceptualization of God" for the Jordan B Peterson Podcast. This series was built around investigating the various methods and practices that humans use to conceptualize God. This investigation leads us down the path of exploring meaning and awe. Why are we struck by awe when viewing a beautiful painting? Why does walking inside the door of a great Cathedral take our breath away? What is the relationship between these experiences and God? This is just the beginning of multiple compilations in this topic. As you guys know, Dad has been on a lifelong quest to try to understand the topics that are present in this episode. This series was released in three parts on all audio platforms. The series was popular enough for us to make a video version of the series, and we decided to put them all together in one video.

Fossils: Mysterious Origins (Science Uprising, Ep. 9)

It's often claimed that fossils provide convincing evidence for Darwinian evolution in the history of life. But is that really the case? In this newest episode of Science Uprising, join paleontologist Günter Bechly, geologist Casey Luskin, and evolutionary biologist Richard Sternberg as they explore the state of the debate over the fossil record and the evidence for Darwinian evolution. Plus, philosopher of science Stephen Meyer, author of the New York Times bestseller Darwin's Doubt weighs in as well. Catch up with other episodes of Science Uprising, plus bonus video interviews with experts from each episode at https://scienceuprising.com/. About the scientists and experts featured in this episode: Günter Bechly is a German paleo-entomologist who specializes in the fossil history and systematics of insects (esp. dragonflies), the most diverse group of animals. He served as curator for amber and fossil insects in the department of paleontology at the State Museum of Natural History (SMNS) in Stuttgart, Germany. He is also a Senior Fellow with Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture. Dr. Bechly earned his Ph.D. in geosciences from Eberhard-Karls-University in Tübingen, Germany. Casey Luskin holds a PhD in Geology from the University of Johannesburg where he specialized in paleomagnetism and the early plate tectonic history of South Africa.

Luskin is Associate Director of the Center for Science and Culture at Discovery Institute. Richard Sternberg is an evolutionary biologist with interests in the relation between genes and morphological homologies, and the nature of genomic “information.” He holds two Ph.D.'s: one in Biology (Molecular Evolution) from Florida International University and another in Systems Science (Theoretical Biology) from Binghamton University. From 2001-2007, he served as a staff scientist at the National Center for Biotechnology Information, and from 2001-2007 was a Research Associate at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History.

Norm Macdonald: The Image of God

In his more serious moments, the late comedian Norm Macdonald discussed God, suffering, the Bible, Christianity, and the soul.

Is Christ's Reign Present or Future - Postmillennialism Vs Dispensation...

Is Jesus Christ now Lord, but not King yet? Dr. White addresses some theological implications of the unity of Christ's offices of Prophet, Priest and King - that is, Christ's present role as the resurrected, exulted Son of God, sitting on His right hand as the King of kings and the mediator/High Priest between God and His elect people as the High Priest. Psalm 2 Why do the nations rage And the peoples meditate on a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers take counsel together Against Yahweh and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us tear their fetters apart And cast away their cords from us!” He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord mocks them. Then He speaks to them in His anger And terrifies them in His fury, saying, “But as for Me, I have installed My King Upon Zion, My holy mountain.” “I will surely tell of the decree of Yahweh: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth as Your possession. You shall break them with a rod of iron, You shall shatter them like a potter’s vessel.’” So now, O kings, show insight; Take warning, O judges of the earth. Serve Yahweh with fear And rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He become angry, and you perish in the way, For His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him! Psalm 110 Yahweh says to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand Until I put Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet.” Yahweh will stretch forth Your strong scepter from Zion, saying, “Have dominion in the midst of Your enemies.” Your people will offer themselves freely in the day of Your power; In the splendor of holiness, from the womb of the dawn, The dew of Your youthfulness will be Yours. Yahweh has sworn and will not change His mind, “You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek.” The Lord is at Your right hand; He will crush kings in the day of His anger. He will render justice among the nations, He will fill them with corpses, He will crush the head that is over the wide earth. He will drink from the brook by the wayside; Therefore He will lift up His head.
