    I literally thank God that I didn’t grow up with the internet or social media. Texting is nothing but a faster telegraph. I try to call my nephews and most of the time, no answer. If I text, I might get answered in a few hours. I don’t trust social media at all. Just a way for government and its enemies around the world to spy on me. All the internet should be is a way to shop and research. It turned into a crutch for the youngest generations. They cannot imagine living without it. No one of them can do face to face conversations anymore with each other! Give me back the days of calling a phone number and waiting 6-8 weeks for a COD order. I do a lot of online shopping and research, but the world was better before.

    I think the internet has made information more accessible so now when a question about the world comes into play we can turn to science and experts for the truth and proof of the world. The Bible which has a lack of evidence to prove that the events that happen in the Bible are true. The gen Z’s just want answers and unfortunately the Bible has no proof of the claims it makes and we are just expected to believe it on faith alone

    My children were homeschooled and taught solid Biblical foundations including apologetics. My two oldest sons left the church and abandoned our faith not due to a lack of a solid foundation, but because of church abuse from other peers, adults, and gaslighting from the pastoral staff who were too cowardly to deal with the abusers. The church failed my sons in their greatest hour of need. No one in the Church wants to acknowledge that the North American cultural church is corrupt from within. This movement in the Church of all grace and all mercy with no accountability and no justice is destroying the fragile souls of the abused victims. The rest of my family is fully intact with our faith, but my 2 oldest sons are still wounded because NO ONE would acknowledge the abuse or hold anyone accountable. The Church has turned a blind eye to the fact that members can be victims of other members and pastors.

    One must also consider a couple of other possibilities for them. They could be prodigal sons. Always sons (adopted children of God) who've strayed for a time. Or they could also be those NOT chosen by God, NOT Elect (names not written in the Lamb's book of life before the foundation of the world). Jesus said he came to bring a sword, to divide families, parents from children, children from parents. While it's nice to believe that a child will be a believer because their parents are, and because those children have had the training, that's never the deciding factor in matters of salvation. It's God's choice. Joh 1:12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, Joh 1:13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

    @@dragonflydreamer7658 The biblical translation to the word 'church' literally means 'the called out'. They are the collection of people that God has chosen to Himself down through time. It's not a denomination as per how the term is used in the bible even though we tend to mix the term up to mean both. It's not unusual to for God's elect to leave unbiblical organizations, denominations. We can't leave, 'the church' if we're His Elect, nor can we join the church if God doesn't call us and He's only calling a minority of the population. He calls those whose names He wrote in the Lamb's book of life made before the foundation of the world.

    What a beautiful testimony! May God bless you richly! I'm from near the tail end of the boomer generation; and although growing up our family (Protestant father and Catholic mother) never attended church, my father always communicated a respect for the Bible in our home. Even though he didn't know (or understand) very much of it during most of his adult life, his attitude alone spoke volumes to me! There was never a time that I ever felt the Bible contained fiction or falsehoods. I honestly just didn't understand how people could do that! After Dad experienced his heart attacks (I was about 16 at the time), he'd promised God that he'd get me into Sunday school and church. My attendance was a bit sporadic until about two years later, when I got saved through the ministry of a young woman in the CCF/Intervarsity group during a fall retreat at university (fortunately I never followed after those groups' liberal mindset). What was funny, though, is that my college friend (then in her mid-late 20's) gave me an RSV Bible (I'd already had a personal KJV at home, which I had read and took to church on occasion) to help me grow in my faith. A few weeks later, she asked me how I was coming along with my Bible study. I told her it was going well; but that I didn't understand Leviticus. Her advice? "Don't worry about that-just read the Gospel of John" (that's where my story relates to Ken's teachings here). I remember thinking (although I didn't think back then to ask out loud) why would someone read a book-*any* historical or narrative book--and start near the end? 😆(i.e., you begin at the beginning; get that Genesis 1 - 11 'foundation' Ken talks about here; and then the remainder makes much better sense). But I didn't realize any of that, then.Fortunately I had already read the four gospels along with some of the New Testament as a younger teenager-the Bible encyclopedia stories Dad had given me as a young child also helped-and so that didn't throw me off-kilter. My Dad, unfortunately at the time wasn't prepared for the level of zeal with which I'd thrown myself into my new found faith; and sided with my Catholic mother and her family in concluding that I was involved with a "cult". Those were some rough years. We argued about things such as holiday observances and politics (Dad being a lifelong, diehard Democrat) all through the mid-late 1980's. It was suggested that my Dad didn't really believe all the things he was so adamant about; and that he just liked to argue. It wasn't until after I'd tuned him out-not in faith, sadly, but frustration-and went in tears to his church's pastor (the church he attended occasionally by that time, at the encouragement of a friend), that a couple of elders went visiting my father one afternoon and led him safely to the Lord. I recount this because it was during that eighteen-month period (or maybe just prior to it)-between the time that my Dad got saved and the Lord had taken him home-that my Dad watched one of Ken Ham's earlier movies at a church meeting (I think it was back from when Ken was teaching biology classes). My dad's earlier indoctrination of old-earth geology's "millions of years" (mostly through PBS' "nature" programs he'd often watched) made him resistant to the message (just as Ken talks about here). I often wish he'd had more time to mature in his newly-committed faith before he'd passed on; but at least I am comforted by the fact that his faith was real (he'd witnessed to my aunt (his sister) shortly before his passing); and that we will one day be reunited in God's eternal Home. ✝📖♥

There is also a great deal of religious abuse that occurs- more common that one would think . Religious abuse sends people running into the new age in droves . Last Sunday my own pastor stopped in the middle of one of the endless rock- a-billy songs to literally order the congregation to put their hands in the air . The reliance on emotionalism and experiences is very frustrating, and totally off base . My 30 year old daughter stopped going to church because of endless music and the zeal to shove her into groups that protest abortion in front of clinics . Young people need to be mentored and taught God’s word and how to walk with the Lord , not shoved into the world to do battle in the flesh .

    I’m a 21 year old who has stopped going to church because of the superabundance of songs during church service. We keep sitting down and getting up without ever being really fed the word of God. If there’s any message it comes from the experiences of the speaker & their feelings, then instead of using scripture they put a song to prove Gods love… Since when songs are a proof of Gods love/ faithfulness /etc ? If it’s not a song it’s a music video that sings “smile” to cheer us up during our difficult times… I’m speechless at this point. It’s very frustrating to wait for theology just to hear another song play again… this is not church, but a concert, a musical play,… I’m disappointed to leave but I can’t do this anymore it’s just ridiculous. I thought that maybe because it’s a baptist/ Protestant church theology would’ve been first

    I would like to add something to this: I don't think it's entirely necessary to stop attending church entirely; you just need to start looking for a _smaller_ church. I'm not saying there aren't good churches that are large (there are some), but I am saying that the entertainment/performance-oriented churches and the churches that try to "evangelize" through emotional manipulation have a _strong_ tendency toward consolidation: They don't want to plant new congregations all over town; they want to make sure that these people are all coming to the same place (or the same few places) so they can take advantage of crowd psychology and so they only need to use a few "elite" musicians. Because of this, by attending a small church you cut out only some of the good ones, but nearly all of the ones with the problems you're looking to avoid. (The only caveat is that there are a number of small churches that teach liberal theology, so you do need to avoid those to get what you're looking for.)

    It can be hard to find a verse by verse Bible teaching church but faithful pursuit is worth it as the Lord LOVES the faithful, God honoring churches so much that He calls them His bride. Can you imagine how dark our world would be if everyone stayed home and worldwide everyone quit meeting together for exhortation and encouragement?? If we quit on the church because some are imperfect that’s like quitting on marriage because some people divorce. One of the greatest tactics of the enemy has always been to get Christians to isolate and “do it on our own.” The enemy knows how easily we become a coal that darkens when removed from the fanned flames of community. It’s not about “us,” and our cozy stay home devotions at home but the bigger picture of encouraging the body! The last couple Sundays I’ve been able to pray for people who greatly needed prayer, welcome new people who visited for the first time, and encourage my pastor with affirmation. There are 4 Types of “Churches.” *Note- #1&4 are NOT real churches! 😂😅 1-Complicit, confirms to the world’s woke leftists standards. 2-Complacent, passively takes no stand to appease the audience. 3-Courageous, stands for Biblical truth no matter what. And of course, living a life of authentic, vibrant faith in community isn’t watching a screen at home with your comfies & coffee. 😂 So you could make a fourth and say… 4-Comfies w/Coffees Keep looking, they’re out there! It took us 9 months of faithfully pursuing local churches. We’d listen online to to preview various ones during the week days and then on Sundays we’d visit ones that would actually teach verse by verse that we heard during the week. We have four kids all under nine, and it was a fabulous experience for us all to see various churches and cultures, and the Lord was faithful and honored our desire to pursue a church community faithfully. Calvary chapel often has verse by verse Bible focused churches if you look up “Calvary chapel.” Heb 10:25 Do not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

    The first commandment says that you should keep the name of God holy. That means that you should not misrepresent who He is. I believe that Ken Ham is violating that commandment when he throws stones. He makes many valid points, but he destroys more than he builds when he points fingers at those who preach tolerance, that other religions worship the same God. Don't make the same mistake. He is preaching his fears... and focusing on your fears bring them into reality,. The way to focus on your fears is to follow the example of Jesus. By focusing on what you know the solution is, and it's not to elevate your own hysteria, it's to keep quiet and UNDERSTAND before you speak. Unless you're asking questions.

    I am a Taiwanese grown up in a very faithful Buddhism family. Before I attended a two day camp with a local old presbytery church at the town my college located far from my home, I didn’t take Christianity seriously. Until that night in camp I saw those church youth around my age sitting there chatting (I was in the chat too) through chatting I felt them very strong inside and have a lot of faith on their life achievement, really treating each other like real family. Compare to my family, though still not that bad, but pretty distanced. So i began attending sermons, gained curiosity toward Bible, actually acquired one bilingual Bible from one brother in the church, and now I still read it with my old friend at my hometown on the other side of my country online who I didn’t know was a Christian too, and now, I find myself slightly more mentally stronger. Thank Lord. But I do not know how my other relative may think about that though, almost my entire grant family and community are not Christian. So I haven’t tell anyone other than my parents that I had been to church.

    it is strange that I can spot someone carrying the faith. Somehow the faith shows in odd ways. It is like the story of faith being written on your heart. When I hear, say pretend Christian political figures, spout off I hear a difference. It is as if the burden of narcissism is growing within them and it helps their careers. They gather strength by "gaslighting" and telling half truths. The anger it generates seems "sticky", it binds and it blows up unpredictably I would say. The "gas" from "gaslighting", if I may continue the metaphor is kind of stinky and hangs around. As a rule the tendency to believe such gaseous stories may have something to do with "verbal intelligence"...maybe too much...maybe too little. Among Christian folks I find something else a strange interpersonal force. Their "verbal intelligence", if you will, is somehow different. Sometimes it lasts long enough to form a good connection sometimes not. But it is not explainable. If you wish...I call the Christian experience some kind of "quantum entanglement". It is not the same as normal "chemical"....uh binding...perhaps because normal sense of binding is usually based on an exchange of some kind...perhaps like in Chemistry when electrons are shared. In chemistry electrons can bind or separate. In Quantum physics...the medium is not the exchange of electrons or the binding of other atomic things one way or another...it is some kind of "quantification"....the process leads to spooky action at a distance and the regularization of certain things for reasons that really do not make sense. I draw attention the large number hypothesis and the issue of 1/137 if you will and the existence of certain "constants" that make no sense. Many set great stock in the opening words of Genesis, for example, and the notion of Creation. Note...many non-believers claim that Creation is merely a quantum fluctuation or that "evolution" explains everything. I beg to differ...and argue that quantum mechanics is an embarrassment to science and that "evolution" is sufficiently directed that we see a certain pattern to what should arguably be random. Pardon me but randomness is not progressive and without some kind of progressive tendency how would anything evolve at all? Can we ascribe some kind of "directed force" to explain the so called progressive tendency of most evolutionary stories...not really. Much of what passes for change over time is a consequence of geography. Evolution and extinction are linked...perhaps in a quantum fashion. In any case...evolution does happen but it is not the kind of children's story that is commonly taught in school. Otherwise....as biologists say...how come we keep seeing crabs develop from many phylogenetic lines?

    I have to say, I am still a baby Christian. I came to God less than a year ago. I saw the Bible as "metaphorical" initially. Now, I believe it all as truth. If I believe God can send his only son down to earth to die for our sins, I can believe all of it to be true. Literal truth. The Bible IS God's word. The way God can change a person's heart and life in a way the world can't, is enough to let me know that the Bible is truth. Because, God can do ANYTHING, even if our logic disagrees with it. Our human logic only knows of our experiences and everyday logic. God is outside of our logic and everyday experiences. We have to trust and understand that. We don't know better than God and never will.

    I happen to be a borderline Millenial/Gen Z autistic Briton. However I believe that only humans experience time in our way, so we can learn to love in a truly spiritual way. With a beginning (called birth, or creation), there always needs to be an ending- called death. There's no evidence that other living creatures experience time like us, so there's no evidence they're as spiritual as us. I believe that suffering originates from our experience of time.

    I one hundred percent agree with you.

You are making the right choice for your children as long as you are following a proper curriculum, and not isolating them. Homeschooling does take discipline and it does take a community and getting out of the house for educational and socialization purposes, but I have completely changed from being anti-homeschooling to being pro homeschooling in this generation that is destroying our country.

    The first commandment says that you should keep the name of God holy. That means that you should not misrepresent who He is. I believe that Ken Ham is violating that commandment when he throws stones. He makes many valid points, but he destroys more than he builds when he points fingers at those who preach tolerance, that other religions worship the same God. Don't make the same mistake. He is preaching his fears... and focusing on your fears bring them into reality,. The way to focus on your fears is to follow the example of Jesus. By focusing on what you know the solution is, and it's not to elevate your own hysteria, it's to keep quiet and UNDERSTAND before you speak. Unless you're asking questions.

    'Lack of socializing' is a huge generalisation. Homeschoolers cannot be lumped together in one group and labelled with that accusation. True, there may be some that lack socialisation, but there are many more who, it could be argued, are far better socialised than those who attend mainstream schools. Socialised across a far wider range of ages. Just my observation, but you get a group of homeschoolers together & there will be more playing together than different ages in a mainstream school who do not mix, because 'you're not in our class'. Ultimately, socialization is the responsibility of the parents, no matter where children go to school.

People say “as long as you give them a good biblical foundation at home.” That’s the thing, they are at school more (awake) hours than at home. I know that at most “Christian” schools in my area the teachers tell the students that the Bible is just made up stories to make you be a decent person. Wouldn’t that be confusing for a 5 or 6 year old despite the biblical foundation they have at home?

The strange thing is that when I go to Bible groups with long serving Christians (we are talking Anglicans) I feel that I am looked at as some kind of twit for speaking about Genesis as though it were true. I had to explain myself the other day when I claimed that there is one Truth, there are not many truths as in, we cannot make it up for ourselves like some kind of pick n mix.

    Please do a second reading of Genesis. You will find below truth: Genesis gives a clear picture of reality in theory, although the church does not speak about it as it will refute the substitutionary atonement theory. Read Genesis again and you will see how Genesis is talking about reincarnation. 1) We saw in Genesis, Adam was given a dust body (and not a glorified imperishable body) which would return to dust 2) So, this shows that Adam had fallen already from heaven and God simply brought him to Eden to banish him and Eve. 3) The idea was to give a dust / material body to Adam and Eve so that by sexual union of them children will be born. And these children are the souls of other rebelling souls against God in heaven 4) A little thought will confirm that God had planted the snake to cheat Adam and Eve and God knew that they will fall for the trick of being like God after eating the fruit. Why? Because Adam and Eve already desired to be like God in heaven. 5) So, all souls we find on earth today, by above arguments were in front of God at some point of time long ago. And God simply facilitated a sexual union method of sending rebelling souls as children of human couples, so that He does not have to come to Eden every time and give a dust body to each rebelling soul. 6) This is not your or my first life on earth, because we are so different. And we have made us what we are over life times and also in this life time through our - thought, speech and actions.

    This is completely true, I went to church for over 20 years believing I was saved. I knew in my head I was a sinner, but I didn't have the foundation I needed to TRULY understand. It was only until God led me to understand God's wrath and Holiness that the Gospel finally made sense to me-I eventually broke free from pornography because of having an actual relationship with Christ. I could finally understand what people were singing about "God's love", I could actually feel it. The younger generation does not have this foundation because of how messed up the world is. When we preach the gospel we need to be clear about sin-the wages of sin, the holiness and perfect justice of God. Then after they understand that, God's plan to save us/how Jesus sacrifice atones for the sins of those who believe in Him.

    I would say that there's another difference between Gen Z (and to some degree Millennials) and older generations when it comes to apologetics: To the younger generations, it's not primarily about science class anymore. What I mean is that when a non-Christian member of Gen Z is asked why he doesn't believe in Christianity, he's less likely to reach for intellectual-sounding explanations that draw upon his understanding of science, history, etc. In fact, he's less likely to appeal to evidence at all! Instead, his first instinct will be to reach for moral perceptions of Christianity and Christians, based on the horror stories he's been told about the kind of dystopian hellscape the Western world in general, and the United States in particular, were during the era when "religion" (read: Christianity) was a dominant force in our culture. Basically, they've been told that life in the West was an oppressive nightmare for so many people, and they've learned to associate Biblical conservatism (including in the areas of literal Genesis and sexual morality) with that. *_You can actually see this if you read the comments from non-Christians in this comment section._* They primarily concern the morality of Christianity as judged by the moral errors of its exponents throughout history, and/or bring up the fact that it isn't viewed as the default religion anymore for those who _are_ religious due to exposure to other cultures around the globe (which is also a moral objection, since it makes it seem as though Christians "decenter" other cultures and religions around the world while "centering" their own). Comparatively few of of the skeptics in this comment section instinctively raise questions of evidence or logic when objecting to the Christian worldview. Perhaps one way to understand this is that the Baby Boomers and older generations were from the Modernist era and needed an evidence-based defense in response to their evidence-based objections. The topic was the cold, hard scientific and historical evidence. Gen X, and to some degree the Millennials (especially the older ones) were from the Postmodern era, and needed a philosophical defense in response to their philosophical objections. Topics included the nature of truth, objectivity, and personal experience. Gen Z and the Millennials are from the era of Social Justice ideology and the mainstreaming of cancel culture, and need a moral defense in response to their moral objections. In fact, I would say that the youngest generations are probably the most Puritanical of any of them in terms of their zeal for following moral rules; they're simply trying to follow a set of rules that they and the last few generations sort of came up with on the fly when postmodern "anything-goes" amorality didn't stop people from victimizing others, and society went "Oh, shoot, now that Judeo-Christian morality is gone we need to come up with a replacement!" p.s. To be clear, I'm *not* saying that the Western Church needs to get away from its historic doctrinal teachings and switch completely over to social-gospel sermons. What I _am_ saying is that apologists need to give a bit more time and attention to explaining the Biblical system of morality and ethics and how it works, since people like the writers of The Handmaid's Tale are already making an effort to do it for them...and you do _not_ want people to turn away from hearing the message of the Gospel (starting from Genesis, of course) because they associate it with...that. And also because you not only need to introduce the Biblical concept of sin, but also deconstruct the association people have between the word "sin" and Victorian tongue-clucking.

    @@stay_curious_BATS The problem with designing ethics without religious influence is that you're not actually doing it when you think you are. At least not in Western culture, where the influence of certain Judeo-Christian moral assumptions is so strong that it's basically seen as "default" to us. I suggest you read some of the writings of Tom Holland (the historian, not the actor) on this subject: Even supposedly-secular ethical movements such as the #MeToo movement would make no sense in an environment that was _completely_ free of religious influence on its assumptions. Now, if you're like any atheistic apologist worth his salt, you're probably thinking, "But only _monsters_ need an old book to tell them not to murder or sexually assault people!" However, my question isn't about whether that statement is true, but about what's wrong with being a monster (other than that other people don't like it, but then again if we built our moral code on what other people don't like, we would have a truly massive compendium of rules from various cultures and religious traditions).

    @@PaulStringini To me, this isn't really a problem with "his own interpretations." Interpretation isn't supposed to be a personal thing; it's supposed to be a process of seeking _the_ objectively-correct interpretation (i.e. the meaning that was intended by the Author) rather than _my_ preferred interpretation. I would actually go so far as to say that the issue of creation vs. evolution is what gave rise to what I said in my original comment: To recap what I said earlier, contemporary culture basically threw out the Bible's moral precepts, thinking they were making themselves freer, and then said "Oh, shoot, now we have to make up a replacement!" as soon as things started to go south and they decided they didn't much like their amoral "utopia" anymore... But here's the thing: I would argue that evolutionary thinking played a major role in the first step of this process, where they threw out the Biblical moral principles in the first place: It was either the reason for throwing them out, or perhaps more accurately the _justification_ for throwing them out when the real motive was the desire to get rid of moral barriers to fulfilling the lusts of the flesh. After all, if you're just an animal, there are no higher expectations on your life than that you fulfill your animal urges. As one '90s rock song put it, "You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals, so let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel." But it turns out that people don't _want_ to be treated the way animals treat each other on the Discovery Channel (which often is nonconsensual, or at least highly-pressured), and so we end up with the #MeToo movement, modern cancel culture, etc. This is why I see the Puritanical moral fervor of Gen Z as a _backlash_ against modern and postmodern amorality--and it explains why the younger generations don't even bother to pay lip service to the saying that "there are no absolutes" anymore. Granted, this has been Puritanical moral fervor for a set of principles that were kind of invented on the fly (with a collection of written and unwritten rules that often have gray areas around the edges), and which derive their authority from the mob rather than from a belief in a God who has a prior moral claim on our lives--all reasons why I do not think that they will ultimately make everyone happy.

    Ken hit the nail on the head. The modern day church is all about entertainment and there is no real teaching going on there. When I was a kid there was a big emphasis on personal Bible study and pastors continually told the congregation to test his words against God's word. Now most pastors take the position "I'm the expert so just follow me and take my word for it." In other words, education has been replaced with indoctrination. The church has also become more liberal. There is no talk about sin; no talk about repentance; no talk about dying to yourself or taking up your cross. All they want to talk about is "grace". This is a systemic problem that has infiltrated every level of the (man made) church government. I personally believe that the only solution to this is for grassroots believers who are grounded in God's word (no college indoctrination needed) to take on the responsibility themselves. Start with a home church and see where it goes. I would also add that scripture charges parents with raising their children - not daycare centers, video games, secular movies and secular public schools. The church is supposed to be sanctified (separate from the world). While I don't agree with the Amish on everything, I believe that there is a lot we can learn from them.

    As someone who is in Gen Z and got DANGEROUSLY close to leaving my faith, I would say that Ken Ham's approach is honestly NOT the best way to reach people in Gen Z because it was exactly this strategy that almost caused me to leave the church. I grew up in a church that DID teach apologetics on young earth creationism (YEC) and they did so very extensively, bringing in plenty of speakers to discuss the topic and showing numerous documentaries on the subject. I found out later that these apologetics didn't stand up to scrutiny, and because I was under the belief that u had to be a creationist to be a Christian (since it was so heavily emphasized in the church) this got me close to leaving the faith altogether because I was given no credible evidence for the faith. I do believe apologetics is necessary but to focus one's apologetics on an issue like YEC, an issue that even the early church didn't agree about, it seems like a poor use of resources. If one wants to use apologetics y not provide evidence for the primary objections people in Gen Z have? Many in Gen Z do not believe in the supernatural, so y not show them the extensive evidence for the resurrection? Many in Gen Z do not believe the bible to be a reliable document at all, so y not provide them with the extensive archaeological and historical evidence that corroborates the various accounts in the Bible (like evidence for the Exodus, Joshua's Conquest, the reign of the Israelite kings, Jesus'ministry)? One can also provide them with plenty of data on the reliability of the Bible through textual criticism. Many in Gen Z say it is immoral to object to gay marriage, transgenderism, and abortions, so y not give them the resources they need to see that only a theistic worldview can provide a basis for objective morality? I recognize that because Ken Ham's career has centered around YEC this may seem to be the central issue to him but I really think he misses the mark here. I agree that today we live in an Acts 17 culture but I think it has a lot more to do with skepticism about the Bible in general moreso than because of evolution.

    Millennial here. Grew up in the evangelical sect of Christianity. During the 80s and 90s, only fire and brimstone were preached. As a kid, I had apocalypse themed nightmare upon nightmare. Renounced Christianity at 13 years, but forced to go to church until 18. Haven't set a foot in the church ever since. In the 2000s, my parents started telling me that God is now a God of love. I studied marketing and realized the church changed their tune from guilt/hate/fire and brimstone driven sermons in the 80s and 90s to love/inclusion sermon till present. Being in marketing, the Church had to change their message because they were losing people, because one can only carry so much guilt. Why would someone re-enter a place when you've been burnt already?

    I’m a high school teacher, and I can confidently tell you that the youth are neither rational nor emotional: they are relational. If a young person today feels like you love them and want them to be part of your group, they will very likely believe what you teach them. It’s very important that you teach them the word in detail, but the time for that is after you have brought them into your family. If a person is dying of hunger, and you offer them a house, they will reject your offer because what they need is food. Once they are fed, they will be excited about the house. Young people today are starving for a family that loves them. Half the churches in America try to entertain young people and give them an emotional experience. The other half try to teach them truth and reach them through their minds. But very few actually invite young people into anything that remotely looks like family (probably because it means a huge sacrifice on the part of the whole church). They are starving for family. If you make kids a part of your family, they will believe what you tell them, and then it becomes very, very important what you teach. But if they don’t feel like they are really a part of your family, they won’t care how much truth (or emotionalism) you throw at them. Unfortunately, often our own children feel alienated from their parents, and if they don’t feel like they belong, no amount of truth will keep them there. They will find someplace to belong, no matter how bizarre and irrational that place might be. That’s why today’s politics are called “identity politics”: they get their beliefs from your identity, and no amount of logic or truth will talk them out of it.

    As someone who became a Christian recently, Ken is spot on when he says we have to preach to this younger generation differently. They are going to say they have a lot of scientific evidence that disproves the Bible, so just giving them the good news won’t necessarily work because they are not going to believe the Bible is a true account. much of the research answers in Genesis has done along with a lot of biblical archaeology that shows the evidence left behind by gods. Miracles is evidence that can be used to counter the secular narrative.

    The core problem here is that you think AiG does "research". They cherry pick and misrepresent the science in whatever way best fits their goal; reinforcing preexisting biases. They dont aim to convince people, because anybody who is looking for truth would fact check, and quickly realise they are being lied to. No. They are simply trying to sow the smallest bit of "not impossible" for those who already want to believe their overarching message anyways.

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

If they believed God’s words inwardly they would not treat you like this. The Church is the scattered people in the entire world who believe in their thoughts and show with their words and deeds they are following the truth and wisdom of God’s words. You will find the Church everywhere. You will know it when you meet them. Some congregate in church buildings, but many more do not. Don’t fret, you are part of the Church. Welcome.

    @@lilnoni671 that's not how evolution works at all lmao monkeys still around now aren't the same as they were millions of years ago. Every population goes through genetic mutations, which through competition and natural selection certain mutations will persist from generation to generation. We come from a a subpopulation within a subpopulation within a subpopulation and so on of monkeys that ended up being VERY desirable traits - namely our stamina and intellect capacity gave us a huge advantage, so that's why the human race is near 10 billion this day. Monkeys are still evolving even as we speak, but the process obviously is too slow for us to observe. Think about it on a micro scale: say you have a colony of cockroaches, and use a chemical that wipes out all the cockroaches except for a few - they had random genetics that allowed them to survive the chemical. These cockroaches then reproduce, and the new generation is more tolerant to this chemical. Over generations and generations, cockroaches that have mutations that give them closer to full immunity to the chemical will live longer and reproduce more, leading to a population of cockroaches that is genetically quite different than what we started with. Now repeat this for BILLIONS of years with very diverse environments, and you'll see some pretty incredible things. We actually have plenty of archaeological findings of these species - look at the sabretooth tiger for instance. Lots of cool stuff here. I encourage you to take some of your own time and really look into it, and be serious. If the bible truly is the book of truth, then it shouldn't matter anyway - let yourself look into it with an open mind.

    It's not a question of your worldview vs my worldview. It is about examining the prevalent views to arrive at which view makes sense. For example, Hindus say - this is not your first earthly life. and you are reincarnating - this is reasonable. Christians say - this is your first and last life - how can this be? Why a kind God without any prior life fault of yours would push a human to this evil world? Unless you as a soul didn't deserve to be here. So, reincarnation is correct answer. Your last life, decides this life. You and I have fallen from heaven long long ago. Again, if God sends Jesus as a savior and only Savior, why did He not send Jesus to the Garden of Eden, just after Adam and Eve fell. So that Adam could have killed Jesus and God would be satisfied by Jesus blood. And it was end of the world. After all Jesus is the lamb who was slain since the beginning of time. So. the right timing for Jesus to appear was in Garden of Eden. Is it not? So, the entire evil which is going on now, could have been prevented. Again, Jesus failed to rule the Israel for the first time, after crucifixion and is not coming back yet, again causing evil and sin to foster.... So, all these point to nonsense ideas of Christianity. Why Hindus are peaceful, because they are connected to reality of reincarnation.

(Adullum Films Documentary Tares Among the Wheat video). Modern bibles have at least one lie and continually challenge God and His word byvasking, The bible has been changed. Did God say? Come on, really? God said He preserved His word. Psalm 12:6-7. Most modern bibles do not. In other words they are not admitting that God has a standard, His inspired word. His word is quick (alive) and quickens (gives life). His word is eternal. Most of the modern bibles have at least one out and out lie. NKJB lies in Exodus 6:3. They began to call on the name of the Lord in Genesis 4:26. Others quote Jesus telling his brothers, i am not going to the feast. John 7:8. (Is he saying he is going to break the law of Moses?) He waits and then goes. Liar! BLASPHEMY . Jesus simply said, not going now, not yet. He waits and then goes. No problem, no lie. And blatantly they mock Jesus and unashamedly, constantly, with each change ask, Did God say? "All things were made by Him and without Him was not anything made that was made." John 1:3. This is the uncreated Creator. Their Jesus is just a vessel 'Made through him'. Did God say Mark 11:26? Absolutely. It is an essential part of our walk with God. A verse that makes us tremble was added????? Did God say? Acts 15:34? It shows God's divine providence. Silas was there when Paul needed him for a journey. Obviously Silas remained there. BRAZENLY, they change or remove a word that gives the believers true power! Matthew 12:31 and Mark 9:29! Some spiritual warfare needs prayer and fasting! Did God say eleven (11) times in the New Testament the word damnation, eternal burning? Yes. But not in theirs! Did God say? Did God give three witnesses to that truth? Mark 9:44, 46, 48. They however only have v48. The other two they ask, Did God say? This is important because we need to know the truth and those who preach Annialism, we cease to exist, are easily proven wrong with these verses. Jesus is God and Jesus is Man. Hebrews supports this with four verses, 3:3, 7:24, 8:3 and 10:12: "But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sin for ever, sat down at rhe right hand of God; v10:12. They do not use the clarifying words 'this man' at all. Again, Did God say? Every change they make is an insult to God and His word. God said He would curse those who add to or take from His word. Revelation 22:18-19. In the Old Testament those who honored a false prophet received the reward of that prophet. So the Alexandrian translators, the bible societies the publishers, the promoters, sellers and those who teach from them (showing those ear tickling bibles as God's word) or honor them will be held responsible. If done ignorantly, repent. God will not be mocked. This happened when the inspired Antioch manuscripts called the Textus Receptus were replaced by the Alexandrian manuscripts called the Codex B or the Vaticanus from the Vatican basement, and the Sianiticus from a monestary. They do not agree with each other and the latter has about 30 changes per page. Obviously inspired by their spiritual father who brings conflict, frustration, despair and DOUBT.

    I no longer attend church at 75 age, but my years didn't stop me. I have multiple medical conditions that have made walking very difficult, made me legally blind, hard of hearing, and cognitively impaired. I was born 1947 so that makes me a boomer I guess. I love the Father, his Son Jesus and the Holy Spirit more than anyone else. I watch services on tv or this tablet definitely on Sunday, sometimes other days. I pray intercession and praise and love prayers. I have read the entire Bible over and over. I believe both the Apostles Creed and the Nicene Creed. Thank you for teaching what the world needs to hear. I do not trust the world, the flesh or the devil. But l do trust God Almighty and his Word.

    Please read the Quran. It teaches that God is a singular Creator being who created all things and sustains all things, and that He is qualified with all of the attributes of perfection. He has no partner and no son, and is the only one who is deserving of our worship. He has promised us never-ending bliss in the Garden if we believe in Him and act righteously. He has also warned us that if we worship someone other than Him, we will enter the Hellfire. I wish you all the best. May God guide us both to that which pleases our Creator.

    I think that Christianity is unattractive to so many people because so many Christians fail to demonstrate the love, power and conviction of Christ in their lives. They just argue about moral issues. If you pray for people and heal them, live from a place of authenticity and expect miracles, people can't argue with that. Don't worry so much about going to church, you need to BE the CHURCH.

    I tend to agree, Christie, but I think Christianity is unattractive because it's unbelievable. For those who really delve deep, and avoid indoctrination, they stand a chance at seeing its fractures, fissures, faults, follies, and fabrications. Then again, church history is a depressing walk down memory lane, with far more people converted at the point of a sword than through preaching the gospel. For a good 1,500 years, the main mechanism of conversion, was force, not faith.

    As a member of Gen X, our problem with the church came from the over-the-top hypocrisy we saw when we went to church as kids. We could not stand it and millions of us chose to go a different direction with our lives. It's not that we don't believe in God and Jesus Christ, we do. but we are half lost and still very much extremely distrusting of what we are told God wants for us because what we are told he wants for us and what we see in our own lives are drastically different realities and the reality we have to operate in is so full of hypocrisy and worse it makes us sick.

    @@illbeyourmonster5752 I do not see you as a monster nor do i disagree with you. Dont trust man trust God's testemony found in his word. That is part of the larger issue which ken is adressing. What ken is speaking about is just one aspect where men have perverted somthing by not keeping to what was written. But as you rightly pointed out that is not the only issue and there are many who know and are trying to change that. Just know that not all christians are the same, but all men can and will be hypocritical that's part of man's nature in our fallen state. Hiding our faults and sins always leads to issues. We are told to live honestly worts and all. Thankfully the truth about christianity does not lie or rely on those who call themselves christians but in Jesus Christ. Believe me, Jesus judges us, and is judging his church, because of our many sins. Yet that does not mean we give up, rather we admit our faults confess it and trun from it. Our sin is/was comitted before the world so our repentance should likewise be open and before the world. He calls us to repent and live in truth and rightiousness found in him and his true faith given by his spirit, this happens by the preaching of the word and not mans religion, nor in false religion and dead works...i can feel the pain you are in I was there once i hated religion and wanted nothing to do with the hypocrisy but then i realized that wasnt true religion at all. When i read the word i realized everything i assumed was "christianity" was not what it really was nor was what i had experienced what the faith is all about...anyway i know my simple reply might mean little, but i will say on behalf of those who call themselves christians who have done so much damage i am truely sorry. I can either be part of the issue or part of the solution, and i strive to be a solution. Yet i admit freely that Christ came to save sinners of whom i am chief and all men need that truth, not the religious clubs that call themselves churches and act like elite social clubs, but they need christ and his new birth not a religon that puts new clothes on the outside of a person but inwardly they are the most wicked of people...i pray God will be with you and show you the truth of who he really is, and not what man has made him out to be.

    I am Gen X. My adoptive parents are part of the Boomer Generation. My adoptive parents went to church with us as kids, but stopped going by time I was in middle school though they still made us attend. By time I graduated high school they had stopped going altogether. My adoptive mom has started going back to church now that us kids are all adults. My adoptive father has not. I grew up So. Baptist where fire and brimstone was very much taught. In fact, I would say it was taught more than God's grace, love, and mercy. And I still struggle with seeing God as loving even as an adult because of how I was raised both in the church and with my sexually abusive adoptive parents. I have wanted to get back into church today because I have been struggling with unbelief and doubts (ultimately, I believe 100% in God and Jesus as my Lord and Savior, yet I still live in my willingness to sin). But, I have had a lot of issues with finding a church home here in Washington State. The churches are either too accepting of sin (heterosexual and homosexual), the music is too loud and too performance-based so much so that I feel like I'm at a mini-concert, and no apologetics is actually taught, and there is just so much finger pointing even within dominations...calling out wolves in sheep's clothing/false prophets seems to be quite the thing to do on KZread these days. So it's been so hard to find a church home that is a good healthy balance of consequences of sin, but also teaching us about God's love, grace, and mercy. I also miss churches that sing out of hymnals, as well, as a mix of contemporary Christian and Gospel. Everything is too happy, feel-good, and me-centered even within the church. I feel that Christians are the ones that hurt Christianity. There is a reason that Christianity is a million, even billion dollar industry today and I really don't believe money was what Jesus and his disciples were all about. Anyway, it's just my two cents worth of unsolicited comment. I don't think the Westernized version of Christianity looks anything remotely like the early Christians, yet we think we have it right and everyone else has it wrong.

If you want to draw near to God learning through reading, fasting, and prayer is the best way. The holy Spirit is powerful and will lead you and fully heal you. I recommend Rabbi Baruch Korman and 119ministries. The life of following God in righteousness is a lonely road and getting to be more so but the rewards are infinite.

    6:15 The salt losing its savour is not about contamination. I have seen two interpretations. A) salt was packaged together with clay, and you broke off a piece of clay with salt in it to use in the soup or whatever, and when the salt content is depleted - you throw the clay to the group B) salt was extracted (not sure if this can happen with dead sea salt) with an admixture of salpeter - if it's stored to long, the moisture extracts salt before salpeter, and while salpeter without salt is disgusting, it's at least a good fertiliser.
