Atheist Asks TOUGH Questions: EPIC Response! (Q&A)

Cliffe Knechtle takes a visit to Texas State University where answers some tough questions about Christianity and also clears up some common misconceptions.

PERSONAL COMMENTARY:
I love how Cliffe handles each scenario with a lot of kindness and you can really tell he cares and is listening to everything the students are saying. Props to the students in this video for being willing to speak up about their reservations with God and pursue the truth.

This is my first YouTube video about Christian stuff, and I've been hesitant to do this because I am worried that I might get caught up in chasing "things of this world" instead of chasing after the Lord, but so far it seems like this is the direction God is leading me so I'm going to continue with these videos.

If you found this video entertaining or informative, I'd love to hear from you in the comments below.

I’ve been watching Cliffs for 2 decades since I was in middle school. He was extremely influential to me coming back to a relationship with Jesus in my mid 20’s. A few years back my wife and I drove to his church in CT because I needed to shake the man’s hand and tell him thank you. He was so kind and prayed over my wife and I. Can’t wait to spend more time with him in Heaven one day...

[johnnyhopkins]

The fact that he got down on the knee to address the first young lady made me watch. Anybody with that level of respect for another human being can definitely have my attention.

[fletcher]

It is nice to see a young man not afraid to believe and claim God so publicly. God bless you that you stay on the right path.

Love how this guy literally physically got on the girl's level & spoke with her instead of down to her. That sort of small gesture goes a long way in honest discussions.

I was worried this would be a typical, low effort reaction video.

I was wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed your commentary and actually felt like it added to the video !

God bless you Jaiden ! Keep up the good work bro !

Pastor Cliff absolutely rocks. He has a quick, sharp, well trained mind. I admire him greatly.

[johangouws]

He speaks with so much compassion and truth. However he gained also respect by going down on one knee to be on her level and not talking down from standing up. 👍

[scottyroper]

I am relatively new to listening to Cliff but I truly like his common sense approach to true faith in Christ. Thank you for introducing him to me. I pray God bless your ministry. It is good to see a young man like yourself seeking and sharing God the way you do. God Bless

Just found your channel, and I’m really impressed. Was shocked you have only been a Christian a short time, you have a lot of wisdom and depth that many Christians don’t have for years. I am loving the videos you are picking to respond to and I love your responses and your research. Keep it up and I am going to look forward to watching many more videos from you! Thanks!

I find Jordan Peterson prospective quite fitting to answer the pain and suffering question.

There simply isn't value in good made in an all fair and just world. To do good, despite the possibility of evil, is what makes good actually virtuous and valuable.

To that, I would add: we are not called to fully understand God's plan. There's plenty of stuff I still don't understand. But if I were to fully grasp it all, I would then be God. Since I'm not, I just stopped trying to rely on my own understanding.

When I can't see the point in something, I put my trust in the Lord. Still, I ask him to open my eyes, allow me to understand and all .... but I trust him

[johnwayne]

This kid wont let him explain a single point before he changes the question.

Suffering makes you more compassionate towards others and ultimately brings you closer to God if understood in the light of faith. Jesus suffered more than anyone during his Passion. He showed such incredible love for us! 🙏🏻

[WatchmanRanch]

I'm so glad to see someone of your age serving the Lord in spirit and in truth. May God bless the works of your hands, in Jesus Christ's mighty name. Amen and HalleluYah 🙏 🙌

[melchiormapa]

Iam not a fertilizer, Iam a child of the Most High God. Thank you Sir 🙏🙏 this is an impact ministry, our God guides your ministry.

Cliff is such an amazing evangelist and apologist. He challenges without being confrontational. Often he tries to get people to a place of common ground and then builds from there. His son Stuart does very well at following in his father's footsteps as well.

[theazjones]

The simplest answer to the second question is this: it wasn't just people and animals that feel the effects of the fall, but all of creation groans. My interpretation is the reason the Earth and everything in it suffers is because it is under man's dominion, his responsibility. The same way a man's decisions could destroy his own family, who may be blameless regarding his mistakes.

[chrisbarbosa]

I love you commentary Jaiden! Some of this may seem obvious to many but there are those who have not understood the depth of the of what Cliffe says. Thanks for making it even more clear to those who do not have the eyes or ears to see or hear the word of the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise God!

[drewbravo]

Pastor Cliff is always an enjoyment to listen to as he explains the Word very effectivly....as long as someone is open to listening. Great job in bringing your humbleness to the for front of how we all are as Christians are still needing to grow and be watchful of his Holy Spirit that speaks to our hearts through his word. Keep up the great work! Love in Christ!

[RobotDude]

This answered a lot of questions for me. Not just the video, but your responses as well.
God bless🙏

[carlodechosa]

Thank you for sharing this brother! Keep strong in the faith too! 🙏
