The link to the longer video is found here: https://youtu.be/C8K8h0OL9sQ Proverbs 23:7 says "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he." For many people, this is a scripture that means that we'll attract what we think about.

In my opinion, one of the most misunderstood passages in the gospels is in John 10:33-36 when Jesus is talking to the Pharisees. It says, “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.” Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I have said you are “gods”’? If he called them ‘gods,’ to whom the word of God came—...
Is there a better way to talk to and treat those you disagree with? Does loving others with who we vastly disagree mean we have to sacrifice our theology (and humanity) to do it?

How can we act mor...

1 John 4:16-18 says: "So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishm...

Can homosexuals truly be delivered from same-sex attraction? Let me put it another way. When God "delivers" a Christian from a sin, does that mean that the temptation towards that sin just goes away?

In this video I feature clips from Dr. Christopher Yuan and J...
