As a teen I rejected Christianity and dabbled in occult fields. All those occult texts led me to the gnostic gospels, and then the gnostic gospels led me back to the real Gospels of Jesus.

Hi, Muslim (in a faith crisis) here. Just discovered your channel and I love how succinct and yet effective your videos are. The cherry on top is your animations :D . Your videos on the Quran have confirmed that my religious doubts are not unjustified, and while I still have quite a few reservations about the Bible, I hope your other videos might provide me with some answers. Thank you & peace x

I like the one where Judas’s wife says “Jesus is no more likely to rise from death than this chicken I’m cooking” and then the chicken rises from the dead.

EDIT: That was the “gospel” of Nicodemus

[benedictjajo]

I'm convinced that after Jesus' death and resurrection, a lot of con men tried to capitalise on it and Muhammad became the most successful one.

1:53 my atheist parents asked if i could debunk it i said it was fake because it was written hundreds of years ago and it does not fit in to the whole biblical timeline they just said "thats what the church says they forbid everything what they dont want to hear"

You know something is wrong when a writing claims that Jesus is the Christ but not the Messiah. "Christ" is Greek for "anointed one". "Messiah" is Hebrew for "anointed one". How can Jesus be both the anointed one and not the anointed one at the same time?

So I can get behind the idea of "cosmic completion" in the sense that God created the universe for a purpose, and each of us has a part to play in that.

But the idea that God doesn’t love you, and is just trying to accomplish some hidden agenda is way off base. He calls us His beloved children, and we call Him Abba (which is a word jewish people use to refer to their dad affectionately).

It’s interesting how the canonical gospels “discrepancies” can be harmonized with such ease that there is practically no rebuttal, just a rejection of these harmonizations. Whereas there is no real “harmonization” of the talking cross, denial of the crucifixion, and outright contradiction of Jesus birth/divinity in the apocryphal gospels.

[maureentuohy]

These “Gospels” are NOT LOST!!! They were rejected because they were obviously false.

"Some say Mary was conceived by the Holy Spirit; they're mistaken... When did a female ever conceive by a female" is the funniest line I've ever heard in my life.

[hansdykstra]

Skeptics: why don’t you believe these anonymous Gospels written 100s of years after by non eye witness not in the Bible?
Also skeptics: I believe the 4 Gospels are anonymous, written 100s of years after by non eye witnesses so I don’t believe them.

Christian Apocryphal texts: exist
Mohammed: lets put that into Quran

This is probably my favorite video from Testify. Will be looking forward to a sequel to that if it’s planned.

As you said: People are just looking for new Bibles to justify their wickedness.

[MrFunnesss]

It's amazing how people believe the gospel of Nicodemus is real
