When your soteriology/theology becomes a cope

This video is going to be very very different from like most of my content. This isn't really planned. I'm just going to completely wing this. This isn't normally the kind of thing that I would talk about, but I wanted to show this guy as really more of an example of not to not to follow. Now, I don't normally do videos on people that would profess grace. You know, I don't really do deal with videos attacking them unless they came after me first, I guess. But this guy, for anybody who doesn't know him that well, you may have seen him about. I believe that he used to be in the sort of hyper grace kind of area. So, very much aligned with uh Greg Jackson and David Benjamin and those kinds of guys. and I think he's been on YouTube for uh a while now, but I I think a lot of his old content is probably deleted. A lot of his old posts are gone. A lot of his old videos, I think, are gone. Now, I myself have had uh one altercation with this guy. So, I sometimes would see his posts come up on on my uh you on my phone app on YouTube. And I I didn't normally comment on his videos, but there was some sort of post about he seemed quite depressed and he he you know wondered how can I go on in this world and and how can I uh you know how can we cope and he he tends to be quite a moper like he mopes quite a lot on the uh the internet and a while a few weeks or months ago it kind of seemed like he'd stopped doing it but then he's kind of started doing it again. So the one altercation that I had with him uh I I basically commented on this like why why should we be so down and depressed you know if we are saved um you know you know we we've got eternal life why do we need to feel this way and and I was asking rhetorically but it was meant to be kind of an encouragement um that you know if we are saved and we understand that we have eternal life why do we need to feel depressed about the state of the world because it shouldn't really matter to us that that was my point, but I guess he misconstrued my comment. And it was only afterwards that I realized, oh yeah, I I can see why somebody would have read it that way. But he read it more in the in the sense of me saying, if you are saved, you wouldn't be depressed. So therefore, because you are depressed, you're not saved. Like he thought that's what I was implying. So he went on this rant in the reply and called me all kinds of names and then blocked me from any further reply, but then posted it as for edification for for his followers. And so then there were people in the comments going, "Oh, that's outrageous. You know, this guy must be a Calvinist or something like that." I mean, the thing is when people call you a Calvinist, it's like one guy gets called a Calvinist because of something they said about continuing in the faith or apostasy. another guy gets called a Calvinist because of free will or something or other what have they said about it or you get c called a Calvinist saying if you were this then then this you know it's funny how that definition changes with everybody who uses it but but anyway that's irrelevant so I I took that post and I tried sharing it on my channel but I didn't realize when I shared it for some reason it didn't create another post on my channel it just shared his post and I I had a really limited word count so I was saying in this word count that he was overreacting. It was being a bit unnecessary. He misunderstood. But I I I could only say it so much because of the tight word count. And so because it was sharing a link to his post and not reposting it on my channel, anybody who wanted to comment on it would actually be directed towards his post. So they couldn't comment on my channel directly. And so after I posted that, then his followers were saying, "He's manipulating you. He he's this. He's that. And he should apologize." Well, it's kind of hard to apologize when somebody blocks you from commenting on their channel anyway. And so that that's the one altercation with that I had with him. And it wasn't intended to even be an altercation. That's what what I wasn't even trying to do that. Okay. But it was heavily misconstrued. But this that kind of summarizes what this guy is kind of like though. and and hyper grace generally I've always found it to be it's like a safe space for for grace believing Christians they're kind of like the liberal end of our easy belieism they don't always like being criticized they don't like a lot of negativity they seem to live in in kind of an echo chamber where they only want to hear the voices of of people who agree with them but then what happens with guys like this is that they become come so far into that that they he started to see the the hyper graces as legalistic. So he's got to a point of even deciding that even David Benjamin and Greg Jackson are too legalistic now and I guess he's stepped into he's now a universalist. So we're going to look at that. I'm I'm going to sample a couple of his videos and we'll talk through some of the stuff. So, I I just want to be clear that I'm not doing this video out of personal animosity. I'm not even trying to be nasty to this guy. I'm going to try and not be a jerk in the way that I sometimes am when I'm doing this [ __ ] Spongebob impressions and stuff like I'm going to try and not be a douchebag, but I'm going to say some stuff that like if he did watch this video reaction, he's not going to like it. Put it that way. And one or two of his followers probably aren't going to like it either. So, let let's just get into this. But it it really is what this is when your theology starts to become a coping mechanism and and that's what this is. It it's a cope. So let's just have an intro as to what he says about this universal stuff. So I just want to, you know, boldly speak the truth of God's word that all in the end will be saved, including all the all the fallen angels, all you know, Satan himself, the beast, the false prophet. Everyone in the end is going to end up being purified and being saved and living forever with God, with all of us who've already believed and trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ alone as our savior. eventually even Satan himself is going to be redeemed ultimately and saved forever and live with us forever with God himself. >> Okay. So, so you've you've heard the claim that and that's actually quite um that's that's an over and above take where they go so far as to even say that uh Satan will be saved. Okay, that that's quite an unusual take. Uh but that that's pretty much the conclusion that he started to draw recently. So So he's basically he's he's a universalist now. Now, unlike our other tribes, like you've got free grace over here, you've got hyper grace over there, you've got NFB kind of guys, and universalists don't tend to have a tribe. Most of the there's no shortage of them on YouTube. I think there's quite a few on YouTube these days. I I see them quite often come up on my feed and stuff, but they often act alone for whatever reason. And I I think the problem is when you start to view everybody else around you as being somewhat legalistic, even even amongst themselves, they probably struggle to get along with each other after a while. So they're the kind of guys that really constantly need therapy. But um let let's carry on. Anyway, I I'll fast forward a little bit to where he tries to justify this claim. God loves every single one of us, whether we're justified by faith in Christ or whether we are yet unbelieving and still heirs of wrath by nature. Well, he loves the ones who are still heirs of wrath by nature just as much as he loves us who believed and are now heirs of God's promise according to the scriptures. Now, what you'll notice about these kinds of claims is that they are just that they are just claims. There is no like opening up the Bible to show why you believe this or why you've reached this conclusion or why this is a biblical precept. It's just making a claim that that God loves everybody because you know, trust me, bro, that that that really what what happens with a lot of the these theologies. It's a trust me bro theology. Okay. He doesn't love the unbelieving or any of the unbelievers any, you know, any less than he loves us who have already believed and are already eternally secure. Well, you know, everybody's already eternally secure because everybody's going to be saved in the end. though. But we have the Aeonian life, which means it's life that lasts through the ages. You know, we're you know, we are now it seems like he he I don't know if he plays some sort of game with this Anonian life. He doesn't do it in this video, but he did it in um a different one, I think, where this is this thing that they say that the the Greek Aon whatever it is, it doesn't mean everlasting. It it means like for a very long time or or or a long age. So then they'll they'll try and justify this by saying that hell is not forever. Hell is temporary because he he still believes I think that there is a hell it seems to suggest suggest but just that it's not forever and eventually that that you know they will be reconciled as well. But that same word is used for both eternal life in let's say John's gospel and the um eternal condemnation described in Revelation. So you you can't really say, well, one is for an age and the other is eternal based on the Greek because the Greek word is the same, right? The Greek word is what gets translated as forever in our English Bible. So there's a bit of a don't let people play games with the eon thing that there's a lot of uh inconsistency when people start to try and go go down that road. But but this is where he's going to lay that out. He's he's going to lay out here how how hell works in his his model. are not of those who are going to miss out on the special ages that are to come. That's the only downside of of you know those who have eternal life in Christ but don't um have not yet believed or have died in their state of unbelief and just won't won't be spending you know the ages to come with us necessarily and won't be resurrected and you know brought you know back into life until the consummation of all things be fulfilled. >> Right? So, so what he's done there, so the way I'm trying to understand how he his doctrine supposedly works is that unbelievers or the unsaved, they they do go to hell. They so they they will miss out on the I guess the millennial reign or or the first resurrection or however that works. They'll get cast into the lake of fire, but the difference is it won't be forever and eventually there will be what he calls a consummation of all things. Now, that phrase consummation of all things, I don't think that's the only time he says that, but he he often has these catchy phrases where he's taken a verse from the Bible, in this case, I believe it's Ephesians 1:10, and he's kind of altered the language slightly. And I don't think when I looked at this verse on Bible Hub, I didn't see any of the other common translations say the consummation of all things. So he's taken that verse kind of out by itself and then he he's implied in a video that this means, you know, Christ is going to gather everybody and everybody is going to be saved. This is the consummation of all things. And it sounds really biblical. It sounds authoritative because he's using this slogan. But this is completely ignoring the fact that when you go to the Bible where that phrase comes from, there is an application as to who that even applies to. So I don't think an honest person would ever read that and think this means everybody is going to be saved. And what happens is people like this. They like statements like the consummation of all things because on its own it sounds quite vague, doesn't it? And if you don't have a passage like Ephesians 1 where you're reading verses in sequential order, you can make a vague statement like that sound anything that you want it to mean really. And anybody who doesn't know a Nazarite from a Nazarene is going to think that you really know what you're talking about when really you're just doing the same thing that works hard do. You're just picking slogans from the Bible and then just slightly rephrasing them and then quoting this if some sort of obvious point that you're making when there there really isn't though. >> Thanks be fulfilled. And that's that's ultimately what we're all longing for anyways is the consummation of all things be fulfilled. You know, we as a church, we tend to >> well, I mean, we're waiting for the the dispensation of the fullness, I guess, but we're waiting for it in the con in the context of Ephesians 1, not in the context of something that we wish was true, but unfortunately probably isn't. >> You know, to think that we're just longing for the rapture, which we are, it's it's the next thing. Now that's another one because he was part of hyper grace before I believe. Um and now he's he's suddenly switched to his universalism. A lot of his channel and a lot of his I would say like complaining on the internet and whining in his posts are by and large rapture watching and there is a lot of that in hyper grace anyway like this rapture watching. People are absolutely obsessed with the rapture and like come Lord Jesus now please come down now Jesus we can't take this life anymore life is unbearable it's insufferable it's a bit like this Buddhist mentality like everything is suffering so our goal is just to end it right our goal is just to be raptured up out of here now this may upset some people I don't actually subscribe to the pre-trip rapture I think it's complete nonsense so I'm not really looking for the rapture right I'm looking for the man of sin to come first, right? If that upsets you, well, I I guess it upsets you, but I I'm not obsessed with rapture watching. And the thing is, like I I only think that it tends to be people with a very defeist attitude in life that are constantly rapture watching and obsessed with Jesus coming back right now and, you know, taking me out of this world right now. I'm not really that kind of person. I can't really relate to that because I'm not desperate for that to happen now. I kind of think I've still got loads to do. You know, there's more channel content I could make. There's more things I could talk about. There's more people that could get saved. All kinds of I'm not just in this defeatist mode where I just want Jesus to come and take me out and just like take the coward's way out basically. I I kind of think like what what can we do next? What what exciting thing could come next right now? So, I don't really resonate with this rapture watching and I think the mentality behind it is I don't have a clear verse on this, but I do think the mentality is wicked because it it creates this woe is me. I'm Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh. I'm depressed. I can't take life anymore. Please Jesus, just get me out of here as desperate as possible because it's so unbearable. And and I'm thinking, how bad is it really? You know, we're not we're not all having a bad time down here. We're not all desperate for the rapture to come right now. Um, I if I've shocked anybody, I I wasn't trying to be shocking. I'm just trying to say it as it is. I'm not obsessed for the rapture to come right now. Okay? I've got things to do. I think that does need to happen. Um yet um what we're really longing for though is really the consummation of all things where all things will be satisfied ultimately and all things will be brought into the everlasting life that is given all of us freely anyways by God himself according to the riches of of his glory and his grace. And this is what again what he's doing like with these slogans that he's taking. It's like four sort of different talking points kind of merged into one. All right. And and this is another thing that they do. It's like they take a little bit from that verse, a little bit from that verse, a little bit from that verse, join it up to make a new sentence. And again, if you don't know the Bible very well, you don't know where those verses come from or you haven't studied them to apply them in any way, it sounds super authoritative. It sounds super biblical, but really it's actually quite vague if you just take it on a surface level of what what he's saying. Well, what is the consummation of all things? What does that mean? Um, all things will be satisfied ultimately. Well, how will they? I it's very vague. You say all things will be brought into everlasting life. Well, if we go to the original verses from those statements, it doesn't prove that that's what that statement means. Where do we get from consummation of all things, which is it's not how the King James Bible, I don't know what Bible he uses, but where do we get from that to all will be saved? I'm not seeing the connection. But when you do that and you just pick random bits from a verse and fuse it into a new sentence, it sounds like you've made a really good biblical point. work salvation guys do that do that all the time. Okay, it's nothing new. I've seen that before. >> So that's what I wanted to say. I just pray that the Lord continues to give me more boldness and utterance to speak to the mystery of Christ the way I understand it, the way people want to attack me about it all the time. So I I don't know who these people are that are attacking him. He's got quite a small number of subscri for YouTube anyway. is quite a small number of subscribers. Obviously, it would be a large church, but on YouTube, it's it's barely anything. His videos don't get a lot of views. I don't know how much opposition he really gets. Now, I'm not in a position to say he could be on I I have seen him once in some sort of online discussion, so I guess he does have presence elsewhere online. I'm not in Discord group, so he could be in a Discord group for all I know. But like I haven't seen loads of videos on YouTube exposing I haven't seen any videos ex exposing this guy. I haven't seen any work salvation person ever do a video against him. I've never seen a free grace person do a video against him. I'm not saying it doesn't exist. I'm just saying I didn't find it. So I don't know how many enemies he's got. But you will see this later as I review a different video. I I think people like this kind of create enemies. It's like they create boogeymen to be at war with. And so he says that I I just want to preach with boldness and I Jesus gives me the boldness from I I know some of you if you don't run a YouTube channel you may think that like what we do like what I do is really brave for speaking the truth. All right from personal experience it doesn't require a lot of bravery. Right now yeah you do have to be comfortable about your face being on the internet. In my case, because I put my name on, obviously, I kind of hope that nobody's going to try and find out where I live and I work and I just hope that the one in a million chance won't come true where somebody that I work with who's offended by everything discovers my channel and re, you know, realizes some of the things I've said. So, yeah, I I get that like people might have that kind of worry. It doesn't require a lot of boldness, though, okay? Nobody can knife you over the internet. Uh, the internet's already full of douchebags. So, if somebody does a video being a douchebag towards you, who really cares? Like, what is going to happen to you really? And I think this is something that a lot of people, and it's it's not just the works, guys. Free graces do this. This guy is doing this. They they have to exaggerate their boldness for Christ that exaggerate their bravery almost to vindicate themselves, like to justify themselves, like, well, I'm being persecuted for Jesus. I'm taking a stand for Jesus. Well, the thing is, you're not. you're taking a stand for your personal interpretation of scripture that's very niche and so it disagrees with most other people because what he's professing most Christians would regard as a heresy and I I'll maybe talk more about that in a bit, you know, just because the Bible doesn't say verbatim that that you know we as believers are are going to have brides, it doesn't mean it's not going to be the reality, you know. So, this bride thing, I'm going to pick up on that talking point in another video where he talks about it in more detail because it's it's a little bit like um it's slightly strange, but I I'll get on to that in a bit. But I'll I'll leave it for this video. Let's get on to the next one. So, um it has these kinds of like um dramatic titles like I'm done, right? Like I just can't take it anymore. You It's that kind of thing that people post on Facebook where they say I'm this is it now. I'm sick of this. I'm not dealing with this anymore. And you think, come on, Sandy. We know you'll be back on next week saying the exact same thing. Okay? And you get people who post comments on social media saying, "I'm not dealing with any drama in my life." But they post that so often it makes you think, "You have lots of drama in your life." So like this like this thing when you read a title saying, "I'm done." You know, you think, well, that's going to be the end of his YouTube ministry. He's got to finish. That's not what it means. It's really it's just it's a baity title. Um it's it's just being melodramatic in my view. Uh just being o over the top. Uh but but he's going to voice something important that one of his frustrations is going to come out in the beginning here. >> I want to do this video real quick just to express that, you know, I'm really sick and tired of all the fighting that's going on in the body of Christ. I've said it before. I'm going to say it again here now. >> Okay. So you you can kind of feel his frustration here a little bit. I think a lot of my own subscribers probably share that same frustration that he's just voiced where Christians are always fighting and um you know we're always falling out. We can't agree on anything. And even like in people who profess grace, I mean we have some complete and utter oxygen thieving douchebags as well. It's like a few days ago that that Chris Tucker guy commented on one of my posts. He's never commented on my channel before. Basically calling me unsaved ba based on nothing. There's no evidence for any of it or no clarification as to why he's saying this. He just posted on my comment saying, "You're an unsaved devil." Out of nowhere. And I basically told him like, "Piss off Satan." Basically, you're calling a a truly saved person satanic. Well, you just called me unsaved. It's like they act like a victim when it happens. I get that Christianity has douchebags in it. And I'm sure some of you watching at least can think of maybe one person who espouses grace, probably multiple people who espouse works where you wish they would just die. Okay, I I obviously that's the flesh talking uh you know that's that's not how like Jesus or the apostles behave and that I get that. But we we feel it sometimes. I I do get his frustration here that like Christianity is just full of well people like me just douchebags who are just like meany weenies and always disagreeing with people and always trying to be right above everybody else. I think some people do find that very frustrating and it does make them feel like they just want to give up. What's the point in any of this? It doesn't make me feel like that because I don't care. I don't really need to feel the need to get on with all Christians and be united with everybody. I could care less. But for some people that does really bother them, okay? And I I I do understand his frustration with that aspect. The problem is again, I think he invents boogeymen to be upset with. I think he kind of invents a war that's against him. And I I think that there's a little bit of a persecution complex going on there, but um that may not be immediately obvious, but there'll there'll be certain psychological things coming out of this if if we carry on watching. Um, I don't understand how so many people can be so seared and so hard and callous-hearted that they can't grasp and see very clearly from the very uh clear verses of scripture in the word of God that make it very clear that all of humanity which God has created ever shall create will be saved in the end. >> Okay, th this is another one and and this is um maybe on the back of my comment I just said about the persecution complex overinflated opinion of the self, right? is quite egotistical. I don't want to say narcissistic because everybody on the internet says narcissist and everybody's an internet psychologist. All right, narcissism is is a detailed psychology. I'm not going to call it narcissistic, but it it is egotistical. It's it's very self-absorbed because the the language that he just used there. Why are people so seared? Why are people so callous and and hard-hearted? Well, really what you mean by that is why don't they agree with you? That's that's what you really mean by that, right? But that that would be the truthful way of saying it, but not the manipulative way of saying it because it's this thing of he's got this niche belief that most of us would regard as a a heresy, right? But it's not him that's the problem for having this heretical belief. Everybody else is the problem, right? And and this is this religious bias that a lot of people I mean we're all in danger of this, but it's this thing where anybody that doesn't think like I personally think and interpret the Bible that I personally do. They are all morally suspect, right? They're they're in it for some sort of agenda. They're not just people with a different opinion who in their own mind love God as much as I do. No, they're sinister people, right? And and that's kind of what's going on here. He's changed his belief system, but we're all hard-hearted for not joining it. And apparently this is something that we should clearly see from scripture. But this is where this is gaslighting essentially because I'm sure most people watching, the vast majority of people watching this have eyes, right? Unless you're blind. And if you're blind, you've got the audio Bible. We can all open the Bible and we can look at a verse like, let's say, Revelation 20:10. There are others where it says the devil that deceived him was cast into the lake of fire where the beast and the false prophet are and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever. Now that sounds pretty eternal to me. Other verses, you know what they are. You know, worm that dieth not. Um that the smoke of their torment shall ascend forever and ever. Um so on you know what they are. Sorry, not it's late at night. My brain isn't kicking in, but we read verses like that, right? So, this thing that he's saying that like we're all callous and we're all hard-hearted. He's trying to make it out like the reason no other Christians will agree with him on this universalism is because we're all old-fashioned footy duddies with Pharisee beards and we're all just stuck in our ways and we just don't want to see this. Well, no, that's not the case. I I mean I'm sure some Christians are like that. But the thing is we have eyes and we read the Bible say things like the devil that deceived them in tormented day and night forever. So when I read that verse and I then listen to him saying even Satan is going to be saved. Well, my religious framework is built on the Bible, not on the arbitrary claims and whims of some random person on YouTube. So who am I going to believe? Well, I'm going to go with the Bible and assume that the devil is going to be in hell forever and ever and ever. Unless at the very least this guy needs to come up with some sort of framework or some sort of a very good a very very good explan. It would have to be very convincing of an explanation to get me to believe that the devil will eventually be saved and that his torment doesn't go on forever and ever and ever. And so, no, actually the Bible does not clearly see this is that word that gets thrown around. doesn't clearly say this. The Bible says these kinds of things, you're not answering them very adequately or not doing a very good job of explaining them. So then when you make claims that are contrary to verses like that, we are naturally inclined to not believe you. And it doesn't necessarily mean that we're being sinister or we're just Pharisees or just can't take it anymore. Well, no, your argument is stupid. It doesn't make sense. Okay. So, you know, we're just reading the Bible and we're just we're not seeing these claims that you're making. It's as simple as that. >> And of all this, people don't understand the the distinction between things. You guys don't understand anything about God's heart or anything. And it's really >> And there it is again. You guys don't understand anything. Not me personally. I I get this. It makes perfect sense to me. You're all the problem, right? You're the problem. You're the problem. Everybody else is the problem, but not me. This is that religious bias again. Okay. Again, the works tards do this. I understand. You know, the sinless perfectionists do this. This thing that everybody else apart from me is the problem. Th this is what it comes down to. It's very egotistical. It's very self-absorbed. It It's very sanctimonious really. You know, he's sick and tired of everybody else. Well, the thing is I'm sick and tired of universalists running channels on YouTube. I'm, you know, we're all sick and tired of work salvation guys. We're sick of some people in easy belieism behaving like absolute [ __ ] to other easy believers, which I'm I'm sure he would at least sympathize with. Um, but it's it's this thing of he he's come up with a doctrine that's basically to help him cope with a reality in the Bible that he can't really face, right? And then he's sick of defending that doctrine because he can't find anybody to agree with him, right? and and and so he's he's really exhausted by nothing other than what I would describe it as his own behavior here. Okay. Really frustrating me at this point. I'm sick of I'm sick and tired. You know, ultimately all I' all I've ever wanted is was to have a female partner. All I >> Okay, and this is this is the big thing. Now, I I don't want to reduce this to worldly terms like incel and all because I understand that's just a worldly concept. You know, as Christians, we are commanded to be chased until we're married. And, you know, we we big up people like Paul who who was never married. You know, we we don't feel the need to shame people for being celibate like the wicked world does. Okay? But this is a big part of a lot of his behavior, a lot of his how he runs his channel, his general attitude towards the Christian faith that he just wants to be raptured out of here. this is all just a cope because he seems to be quite desperate for a a female companion and he is very very vocal about that and in a way where you kind of think like maybe this is just something you should keep to yourself rather than broadcasting it on the internet. So he's desperate for a female partner. He's been praying for this for years and God's not giving him one. And that really is going to be the source of of all of his frustration. So let let let's keep listening to this. >> Wanda was my true bride. My my true forever wife, my forever love is probably the best. Uh instead of wife, which has freaking to do with world, I don't like that word. Bride makes it sound like a temporary thing. Oh, it's only a, you know, you know, she's not really yours until you marry her. She's, you know, well, I guess. >> See, I don't really understand what the complaint is there. Um, if you're in a relationship with somebody, they are your pride until you're married. You don't know that you're going to marry them until you marry them. So I I don't really know what that complaint is to be honest. >> What I want my forever love then. That's what I refer to my woman. All right. That that the Lord Jesus Christ created for me to have eternally forever. Ever you know you know you know forever without end in him. >> So this is this thing where he he has this ide borderline desperation for a female competent. And I sympathize. I'm I'm sure I have some subscribers who perhaps feel this same frustration. Okay, if you've been looking for a love of your life and you got one, uh, you haven't got one, sorry. I understand that's frustrating, especially in the wicked world we live in today with all the online dating and all that rubbish. But he he's got this idea that he he's going to be married forever and ever and ever, even into eternity. And again, this is an idea where he's saying something that sounds spiritual and we're all just hard-hearted for not getting this idea. But it's because this idea contradicts something in the Bible that is quite clear because the bi Jesus did quite clearly say to the Pharisees were trying to ask him a trick question. You know, they they will be as the angels neither married nor gifted in marriage. So most of us, most of you, I'm sure, myself included, would read Jesus's statement there as saying, well, it sounds like there isn't going to be marriage in heaven then. But he's quite obsessed about this idea that not only is everybody going to be saved, he's going to have this bride for all eternity. But it it's going to get weirder than that, though. I have to forewarn you. And I do have to warn that later into this video, in the next one, there's going to be some uh he's going to use some swear words. Okay? Just have to forewarn the people that don't like that. You know what? Yeah. I'm going to stand on my universalist belief that all will be saved in the end. All men, all women, and all the principalities, including all the fallen ones, and Satan himself, are all going to be saved by the Lord Jesus Christ. Because you know what? That's how good our heavenly father is. >> Well, again, he's saying that's how good our heavenly father is. Our heavenly father gave us a Bible that said some people are going to be in the lake of fire that burns forever, even though we're not. So that that that's giving me mixed messages. The loving father is so loving he's going to do this, but for some reason he's told me that he's going to do this, but I'm just supposed to be as humble as this guy and just figure out that he's not really going to do this, even though he said he's going to do this. It's so confusing. And and again, this is manipulating the love of God to trick people into a doctrine really. Um which it's very um manipulative. >> I just want my wife. I want the Lord Jesus Christ to finally just bless me with a woman in this life to have who's actually going to be serious and not play games and not actually have 10 other guys she's talking to while she wants to friend zone me. I'm I've already went to the Lord. I already trust I was very specific. >> I mean, that sounds a little bit like a Freudian slip. I guess that that might have been a thing that's happened. He tried to get a woman and she wasn't interested in him. Um, [snorts] again, this is things where like maybe you should kind of keep some of your private life private, but some people insist on being vocal about everything. And the problem is when you're vocal about everything, sometimes if if it's female related, if it's related to your frustration with getting girlfriend or or a bride, but then you're very vocal about that on the internet, that can actually work against you in actually finding a bride. Just saying. Um, but we I'll I'll talk more about that >> about what I wanted from him. And I've been waiting for the past 10 years and still waiting for the Lord to finally fulfill the desire of my heart to have my true wife, to have my true female partner cuz that's all I ever wanted anyways. And I don't care what anybody says it says about that. And I don't care. Okay. So this is again this is his frustration coming out, right? You know, he's been wanting this for 10 years. is not been getting it. Um, again, I do understand the frustration with that. I a lot of guys do struggle to be single. I I I and you know, I do get it, okay? And we want companionship. And and it does feel to us, and I'm not accusing any ladies, you know, that subscribe and watch this. But a lot of men today, even in the secular world and the Christian world, feel that like women are only interested in dudes at the top level that are way beyond what they can get anyway. or you know there's like 90% of women chasing 10% of the men and they they don't have any grace for men that are less good-looking or or earn less money or whatever. I I get that frustration but the thing is though like it it it's really just a lot of whining and complaining on on the internet but he's not going to do in fact let me just show you this because he's not going to do anything about it according to the worldly societal beliefs of like oh that makes you less attractive to women because you you're showing yourself to be clingy and needy and all that stuff. I don't really give a [ __ ] Okay. >> Okay. Um, >> you know what? >> Yeah. Apologies for the language. I did warn you it was coming. So, this is this for me really kind of tops it all off. He he's complaining about the fact that he can't get a woman and he's quite vocal about this. But then something that is hold that is holding him back from the possibility of getting a woman. He doesn't care when that's brought up with it. So, he's acknowledged that it comes across as needy and less attractive. He wants a woman that makes him less attractive, but he doesn't care, though. It's like he should be entitled to get the woman while not doing the things to make to make that happen. It's It's sort of like this. Okay, David from Noonsense Christianity wants to get rid of his mops. Okay, but he's not going to hit the gym and he's not going to uh cut down on the bag of crisps that he likes so much. Uh, but he just expects that God is just supposed to rain in from heaven and I'm supposed to have a six-pack and big abs for doing nothing. That's not how life works. That's not how God works. That that's just not how anything works. Okay? If you want something to some extent, you have to be willing to put in the time and the effort to make those goals. Now, salvation notwithstanding, because that is a free gift, everything else, there's a reason why the Bible calls it works. Okay? takes work. It takes effort. It takes perseverance. It takes trying. It takes efs in the towel and say, "Well, the the demands are too high. I'm not going to reach for that." Well, it's your right to do that and you are, you know, we have to accept our limits and there are things we can't do. But you can't you can't say, "Well, I want the limits, but I also want to reach for the thing that's above my limits." Now, I'm not an expert on women by any means. I am certainly not the catch. Okay? Bit scruffy looking myself. But the difference is I'm not looking for a relationship. Okay? That's the difference. So, I understand I don't know everything about women. Okay? But I do understand at least that a lot of women do like a man who is somewhat ambitious. Okay? Now, he has posted in the past posts complaining about the fact that, oh, I might have to get a job in this wicked world. and oh my EBT. And so based on those little tidbits, I'm guessing that he hasn't been employed for quite a long time. I could be wrong, of course. I don't know what kind of life he lives. I know nothing about him really. Um, but it sounds like he's been living on welfare, so he's not going to have a lot of spare money. He's not probably not then doing a lot with his life. Okay. Probably spends a lot of time at home. YouTube channel not notwithstanding. That doesn't tend to be the kind of guy that a lot of women are going to go for. Even Christian godly women who aren't going to set the unreasonable worldly expectations of the gold digging [ __ ] that are out there in the world, even they still to some extent want a man who is ambitious, want a man who has a drive, want a man who can at least provide or at least put himself to work or do something with his life. Okay? In fact, that was my my mom once openly confessed that that's one of the things that uh she found attractive about my dad, that he was ambitious, that he goes to work and earns a living and he has a good job and he strives to do better and he strives to do a good job. My mom wanted an ambitious man. And I think a lot of women probably feel that way. Um so they probably don't want a guy who just lives on welfare, sits at home doing no not much. Okay. And also as well like women can sometimes be a bit hypergamous. So they think, well, if I'm earning money or if I'm doing this or if I'm doing that, I should be entitled to a man who also does that. Now, we can debate as Christians whether that's actually even right or or wrong. I get that. That's a separate argument. But think of it this way. If if a woman goes into the effort to put on makeup and look pretty, she might actually expect that a bloke puts in some kind of effort into his appearance. Now, she might there are women who openly say, "I want a bloke who's uglier than me so that I get the attention on the catwalk." But but still they they might at least expect that that you do something about your appearance. Dress up a little better. They might not like the scruffy beard, the slightly greasy hair, maybe needs a haircut. And again, I know I'm not in a position to talk, you know, if we were criticizing what he looks like. I'm not looking for a female, okay? And I I don't consider myself a catch. So, and again, right, if if you're a female subscriber, please post the comments if I am wrong about what I am about to say, but I would guess that most women aren't attracted to somebody who just goes on the internet and complains, but won't take any steps to do anything about it. Okay? It's just it's not attractive. And the thing is as well, ladies, I would say actually, it's not attractive when women do it for men either. Okay? Cuz I knew somebody like that. I knew somebody who she would complain. She would always have a problem. There was always something wrong. Doesn't matter what adjustments you made, it was still wrong. Somebody upset her. And it's really exhausting to be to be around somebody like that because they're like to me they're like a happiness vacuum. They just suck the happiness out of life and you just feel like emotionally drained. Okay. Now, I do have a brother in Christ who has an on I'm not going to say who he is, but he has an ongoing health problem and because the body's all connected, basically his mind is like if you think of your most fed up day where you don't even feel like getting out of bed because he just feels so awful. Well, he feels like that almost every day. Okay? And like this guy, he can be very frustrated. He doesn't have a supportive family. He uh has not really as far as I know any friends in the city where he lives that he can confide in or that can help him. So he's a very unhappy person a lot of the time. But the difference is he doesn't go on the internet whining and complaining for sympathy and then making everybody else behave like this because when you are on YouTube there are certain people who when they subscribe to you they will pick up on how you behave and they they will copy your mentality. Now, I I try to behave in all kinds of different crazy ways so nobody copies me too much. But if you're a person who just complains and it's Christ, get me out of here, you're going to make subscribers that are like, I can't take it anymore. Christ, get me out of here. Right? That that's the kind of people that you're going to build as a as a subscriber base. It's a very defeist attitude. It doesn't help people to get off on their feet and motivate themselves to do better. Um it's just it's just playing the victim really really is all all that it is. What? The Lord Jesus Christ supersedes all that crap. All the freaking masculinity, you know, the freaking semen retention, all this [ __ ] no fab crap, all the [ __ ] worldly wisdom that you hear, all all that stupid [ __ ] So, I'm all dead. I'm dead to all that [ __ ] because I'm in Christ Jesus who died in my place and rose from the dead on the third day for my justification. He's given all these women for me to actually have in him in eternity. How about that? How's that sound? >> Well, right, it sounds creepy. Okay. Now, again, I'm not an expert on women. If I was a woman, I would probably find that creepy. Okay. Because first of all, we're complaining that we just want to find one woman. But now he he's saying um women in the plural, I believe. Yeah. He he said women in the plural. Okay. So, it's like all women like he he he said this before actually, like he said this weird thing where he will be married to all women for all eternity. It it just sounds really strange. I mean, for again, the Bible clearly articulates that we won't be married in eternity. So, unless you can come up with a good explanation for that verse and articulate why Jesus would say something like that, if what you believe is true, it just sounds nonsensical and it just sounds weird. I I don't know what to make it, but that that statements like this might be the reason why you are single. Now, I spent most of my 20s up until about 27 being single. And one of those reasons were because my autistic spectrum brain would say something that women found strange or weird or annoying or just not attractive. Okay? My mouth opened. I talked. Lo and behold, women weren't interested. Okay? And so then he goes on to say, "I can't wait for eternity. I'm going to have all the desires of my heart." Well, the thing is, is it the desire of the heart or is it the desire of something else between the legs? Because first of all, that thing between the legs, I assume, won't be an issue in eternity anyway. Um, if it's the desire of your heart, well, your heart really should align with what God's heart is. And God's heart is that we will be as the angels. We will neither be married nor given in marriage. So, uh, I this thing of eternal bride of of women. Again, if you want that one woman, you want that exclusive your wife, that one person for you, saying you're going to be married to all women probably isn't going to work for now. Again, he could listen to what I'm saying now and he could complain. Well, I don't care. I don't care. I don't give a crap. Well, okay. But you're going to carry on being single as you have been. You're going to ask God to help you find somebody, and it's not going to happen. That's what's going to happen. Okay? Because these people ask act like we should just ask God for stuff and sit down and not do anything. Okay, there are things in the B like the Bible does command men and women to behave a certain way. The Bible commands you to conduct yourself in a certain way. But again, it comes from hyper grace. They don't like commandments in the Bible. Even if you apply them not in a salvation context, they still think you're being a legalistic Pharisee because it's a cope. It's a big cope. Okay? But the Bible has these instructions on how to be a man, how to be a woman, you know, the kinds of things that that, you know, men and women go for. And and so this is why it's just rapture watching uh Jesus come take me back because there is, you know, it's just complaining all the time and it's just nothing's going my way. Well, it's not going to go your way. I'm sorry to tell you. If if this is your general attitude towards life, um you you can call that unfair, but I didn't design the world, okay? It's not my fault. It's like that. So, what you see is you can see like the cope kind of evolving because then, you know, we get to this very harshly titled video. You know, he he's reached the end of his tether. He's sick of it. He he can't take this anymore. I mean, he's still going to post another video on YouTube, okay? Ministry is not going to stop, but this is going to be a lot more of the same thing. So, I'll just see if I can skip through to a few talking points on here. So, I'm praying that the Holy Spirit gives me utterance to say everything that he desires to be said in this video. >> Now, I always find statements like that to be very suspect because we can get a spectrum of Christians with all kinds of different beliefs saying, "Oh, I pray that God will speak to me through his word. Oh, by the way, you have to turn from all your sins to be saved. Oh, by the way, unless you live like me personally, you're not going to heaven." Okay. It It's incredibly manipulative because it sounds powerful. You know, I'm speaking the word of God. This is authoritative when really you're speaking your religious beliefs, but you're trying to make it sound convincing to Christians who don't really know a Nazarite from a Nazarene and aren't really going to be able to challenge you with this. And the ones that are able to challenge him, he's just going to dismiss people like us. So, whatever's said from here on out, because I'm trusting the Lord, I'm trusting it's going to be his Holy Spirit ministering and speaking and giving utterance to things that he desires to speak to the body of Christ without my flesh and my own understanding and my own carnal mind and my own events and my own emotions and all that [ __ ] getting in the >> Again, it sounds spiritual the way he's phrasing it, but just because you get on the internet and say, "I'm trusting in God that what I say will not come from my flesh," doesn't mean that what you're saying doesn't come from your flesh if you see what I'm because again sinless perfectionists and work salvation hardcore guys will use this same language the same talking points it's it's very manipulative I'm very very suspect of of people who try and try my my argument is right if if you tr if you believe that what you are saying is true and you're you believe that you know the truth and you know what correct doctrine is and you know how to interpret a passage correctly You should be able to show it me on the screen. Show me the language. Show me the words being and how it fits with your model. And if there's something that seemingly contradicts that, you should have a good idea of how to explain that, right? So like if I for example, I will explain from Matthew 25 the sheep and the goats. I will just show you the passage on the screen and I can say look at this here, look at that there. And what I generally find is that my subscribers either didn't see it before and then they see it and it's so obvious they wonder how they missed it and oh, I see I see what he's saying. I see it for myself. I can trust what David is saying. Or they already knew what I knew anyway. They already knew it before I got up and did a video about it. It's just that maybe they couldn't articulate it as clearly as I articulated it and then once I articulated it, yeah, I found that also. That's what you should be able to do if what you say is true. If you just have to say, "Well, I'm trusting in God to speak through me." Well, yeah, you and everybody else with their own belief system. It doesn't really help me know that what you say is true because I I'm still only basing on trust me, bro. I've got nothing to go on. So, I I would stay very clear of of using this language if you're going to try and convince people to believe what you say. So, I'm going to wait on the Lord. Hope I'm going to wait on the Lord to just give me the utterance already because one of the things I want to address is that very thing about the triune God. Everybody want, you know, certain people want to they they have they they they have it right that Jesus Christ is the propitiation not only for our sins who believe in him but also for the whole world that ultimately in the end all are going to end up being saved and living forever with us with God himself to his eternal satisfaction. Well, again, I don't know who they are there that he just mentioned, but again, he's using phrases that don't precisely come from the Bible, but they sound similar to some verses in the Bible. You know, his eternal satisfaction. Again, that's not how let's that's not the language of Ephesians, but it sounds similar to Ephesians, but on its own, it's very vague. So, it sounds like he's being authoritative. There's there's nothing here that I can pick up on that I I should believe any of this. >> And yet people want to deny that Jesus Christ is God. The universalists, they have the the gospel and essentially the part of the gospel that says all are saved in the end. They got that part right. >> They didn't get that part. >> Eternal torment is a lie from Satan. The the the lake of fire is a temporary the second death, which is it's the second death, by the way. But the well again he he can say that and he can say that he prayed that the Holy Spirit would speak to him that doesn't address the verses that we have a problem with if he wants us to take his view seriously right why because the thing is like a lot of people and I find this like with the works guys right the the he's doing something very similar to what the works guys do except that he paraphrases a lot that's the main difference but they'll they'll quote random verses in a point that they're making, but they're not really explaining those verses, nor are they explaining the verses that would seemingly contradict this idea. Right? So, let let me give you an example. If Paul truly meant to say that we are saved by a faith that will produce good works, why would he say it's by faith and not works? Right? Why wouldn't he say it's not by works on their own or trusting in works, but it's by faith that works? Or they'll say, well, you know, he means works of the law. You still got to do this. Okay. Okay. So, if it means works of the law, that's a different category of works. Why wouldn't he still say, for we are saved by faith and works, not of the law, but of something else. That's how Paul should have phrased it if he meant what the works meant. But that's not what Paul meant. That's not what he said. Right? And and obviously they can't pick that apart. So they just run off to another verse or attack me personally. You can have a belief, but you're not explaining. It's not just the fact the Bible says this verse. Because we can say, "Oh, well that's just, you know, it's hyperbole or you've got to explain why would the Bible actually say that if what you say is true." Think about if God knows all things, if God knows the end from the beginning, if if hell is temporary, why say forever and ever using the same Greek word that's used for everlasting life, why would God do that? Is God trying to confuse us? Is God just having fun with us? Is he just playful and he likes to play these tricks on us? What's your explanation for why the Bible should be phrased like this? If what you say is true, a lot of Christians don't explain why the Bible says stuff. They just tell you what to believe. That is very unfortunate. But that's that's that's Christianity in a nutshell. That's what most of it is. Unfortunately, >> second death is not operative eternally forever. The second death is is going to to come to an end for all who are hurt and touched by the second death. It's going to all end at the consummation of all things. >> So, it's going to end based on a verse that's not talking about that. Are we just supposed to ignore the verse that is talking about that? Like again, it's it's the gaslighting. It's like, "No, don't look at what your eyes can plainly see. It's not there. Just listen to me instead." It's it's very frustrating. And like he says, "I'm tired of this. I'm sick of this. The people falling out." To be honest, the feeling is kind of mutual here. Um, you know, I'm kind of pe sick of people saying consummation of all things and not explaining this verse to me. You know, I I'm sick of Christians telling me what to believe but not actually explaining why I should even take them seriously. >> Uh when even Satan himself is is going to end up being saved because that's how good God is. >> Well, again, you can say God there's no evidence for this in scripture. It's just I quoted a verse from Ephesians, changed the wording, so now this other thing it that that doesn't work. It's not how it works. >> Who is Jesus Christ himself, by the way, who died on the cross as a man? Oh, yeah. God can't die. And to say that um Jesus Christ is God is to deny his death and resurrection. No, it's not. >> Well, I don't I don't know who's saying that, Straw Man, but I have no idea. >> Because all throughout scripture, it's just as clear that Jesus Christ himself is God himself. Just as clear, just as clear the word makes it that all are going to be saved in the end. >> So again, it people do this. This is part of the manipulation. throwing the word clearly around. You can throw the word clearly around all you want. That doesn't mean that what you say is clear. What makes something clear is everybody around you agreeing with you. We all agree that Jesus died and rose again. So therefore, that must be pretty clear. Okay, we're not so clear on uh why do women have why are women commanded to have long hair? Because of the angels. That's not clear. A lot of Christians have no idea what the answer is. So that you can't just say, "Well, the Bible clearly says the claim I'm making on the internet." It doesn't clearly say that. That's something the Bible clearly says. So unless you can come up with a good explanation for why the Bible would clearly say the verse that we can see on the screen, you can't justify it as clearly saying the thing it doesn't actually say. Okay? God can do anything he wants. Jesus himself being God himself actually said, "No man takes my life from me. I lay it down of myself that I may take it again. By take it again, he means being raised on a third day for the justification of all of us, including the ones who don't believe in him. >> Well, no, because the the verses where he's referencing that Jesus would die for us are in John where he he told us to believe in him or face the condemnation. So, this doesn't work. So yes, Jesus Christ is God. He's very much just as much God as as the father himself is God. Jesus himself said in John 14. Oh yeah, and by the way that that you know certain people are saying too like uh I think it was Martin Zer or somebody, but this is why I'm not going to like I'm not really I don't really watch anybody anymore. I mean I'm I'm not even I I really pray the Lord does not allow me to even recommend any teachers anymore. Even if I think that they're good at first, I >> and and this is all part of the cope that I was describing. It's all because anybody now anybody could offend this guy. Anybody who gets on YouTube and has a contrary opinion, it's like he perceives that as being quite threatening because obviously the vast majority of Christians around him aren't universalists. Most of us aren't. Most of us regard this as a heresy. So if he strongly believes this and this is his coping mechanism, we are all a threat to his religious bubble, his um echo chamber, right? We we are a threat to that idea. So of course he doesn't want to listen to anybody else. And if you if you go so far that even hyper graces are legalistic, you you there's a really serious problem there. Um and again, it's part of this kind of self-absorbed thing. Nobody else can get it right. I'm the only person that gets this, so I should just not listen to anybody else. I it it's very strange and it this is what happens when people fall into a very self-overly inflated trap of they just think too highly of themselves really more than they ought. >> I don't recommend anybody anymore. I don't recommend myself even sometimes. >> I mean that that's just that like I mean why are you even on YouTube if that's the case? This is what I don't understand about about people like this. I I I don't understand the mentality behind it, >> but but that's because I I'm still in the flesh and I have to, you know, take take that freaking humble road of like, oh yeah, you know, like God be true and every man alive, including myself. It's [ __ ] when So there and there it is again. People from a hyper grace background, they don't like being challenged on their I mean, none of us be like being challenged on our behavior. Nobody likes being criticized. Nobody, no Christian takes criticism very well. But hyper gracers really don't like it. Even if you're not telling them personally, just the idea of we should do good things. We should we ought to do this. Let us do this. It it's it's like, oh, legal is they cannot cope with it. They they really take it. It just bothers them. It just disturbs them. I don't know why, but it's I don't I don't know what it is. And you know, you know when I should already be seeing myself in Christ, so I shouldn't even have to make that freaking stupid humble like stance. and stupid. >> And again, that that's another what I assume to be a traditionally hyper grace. I mean, I say traditional, it's only been around for a couple of years, but that's what they all like. They, you know, we we're living a new life in Christ. We don't need the law. We don't need to do God's work. We need to live in our new life. Well, the thing is the the Bible that tells you about living your new life is the same Bible that gave lots and lots of commandments and requirements and uh things to the free in Christ body, you you know, body of Christ, the free in Christ believers. The Bible commands us saved Christians to abstain from fornication, to avoid drunkenness, and this that and the other. The Bible commands these things to the free in Christ Church. But like hyper grace. Oh no, you're not supposed to be talking about these verses. It's about living the new. We don't have to do any of that. We just have to live our new life. When the Bible is talkings about living your new life, right? Obviously, we understand doctrinally that the sinless perfectionists don't understand this, but we understand doctrally the flesh itself hasn't materially changed when you get saved. Okay? it doesn't miraculously become less horny or less, you know, drug addicted or whatever problems it carried with it into your your Christian life. What the Bible tells you to do is fixate on your eternity. So, if I understand in eternity there's going to be no cigarettes or I assume I might be wrong, I don't know. If I assume in eternity we're not going to be getting drunk anymore. If I assume in eternity we're not going to have these raging hormony feelings anymore and we're not going to get constantly mad and upset with each other and we're not going to behave like [ __ ] and this that and the other. If I'm fixing my eyes on eternity, I recognize that that's how I'm going to be living in eternity. So the goal is to try and get a bit of that lifestyle now so that it's like we're we're sort of putting our minds on what our life is going to be like. Because if like if your whole life was just how much can I drink and how many women I slept with, but you're still saved. Well, you're going to be a bit disappointed in the afterlife, right? So, it's about fixate. That that's really what it comes down to. It's not trying to be saved. It's not uh just making you work for the sake of being a a back whipppper, you know, or it's it's not just this vague hyper grace thing of don't tell me any good works. We just live this full life, but we can't really define clearly what it is or what it looks like or what it entails. Just live it, bro. like no live your life now. Acknowledge that you are in sinful leisure, but we still have this eternity where we won't be like that. So, fixate your mind on that eternity. That that that's really the the middle way that I I can really interpret that for you. >> All I've ever really honestly want to talk about me. Well, all I've ever wanted was my bride. >> And there it is again, the the obsession with finding a woman. >> And at this point, that's all I care about really. But because >> and I I think if you only care about that probably a YouTube channel complaining about your situation, I I just assume it's not going to work. He's welcome to prove me wrong. He's welcome to find a woman and prove me wrong, but I I honestly don't think it's going to work. And I can't see God blessing that prayer because I don't think that getting up on the internet and complaining about all of your problems and making feel people feel sorry for you and creating an echo chamber of everybody that agrees with you and blocking everybody else that doesn't, I don't personally perceive that to be a godly attitude. Now, it's hard for me to prove that directly from scripture because they didn't have YouTube back then. Okay? But, you know, we do have verses like do everything without grumbling and complaining. And you know, we have the example of the Israelites in the wilderness grumbling and and what God did to them. We we do see the Bible's attitude towards people with an attitude. Now, I'm an Englishman. I'm a stereotypical British person. I do complain a lot, but for me, a complaint is like, I get it off my chest and then two seconds later, it's done. Right? I've moaned about it. I'm over it now. It's yesterday's news. Or it might be like sometimes that's just how British people bond because we're not happy all the time like you Americans are. Or it just might be like sometimes I might complain because the people that I'm talking to, I want to get their feedback and suggestions. Did I do anything wrong? What could I do about my situation? And that's quite a guy thing. Like we complain to other guys in order to summon their complaints, right? Whereas I think this is perhaps more of a feminine trait, but not that all women are like that. But he's displaying this trait certainly where it's just it's complaining to get sympathy even if the sympathy is not necessarily deserved. And just to be clear what I said at the beginning, I'm not I don't have any animosity towards this guy. I'm not trying to be mean to this guy. I'm not trying to be nasty. I I mean the thing is I would say I'm saying it to help, but he's not going to perceive it that way. He's going to he's not going to perceive this video as trying to help him. But the rest of you, would it help you? Because I'm saying don't have this kind of mopey attitude defeatist eor Christ get us out of here I can't take life anymore kind of attitude right you can have that attitude in private but don't have it in public and drag everybody else down with you okay >> because I have to be here because this is what God has for me I have to be on here I have to attend to things I have no [ __ ] nothing else to live for really and >> honestly I'm just waiting for the Lord >> nothing else to live for so quite sad really quite that's quite depressing right now again going back to a friend I mentioned earlier with the health problem I I I he has he's not planned this he's not tried to do this but he has asked the question what if I killed myself right or what if Jesus just took me now you know I wish that would just happen like he he generally feels like he can barely take life anymore right and that's hard because like as friend, you want to do something about it, but also, you know, you can't sometimes. And you try to be there for them, but I'm not really a counseling kind of person. I'm not really good at therapy. I'm if anybody ever thinks on just because I get up on YouTube and I sound like I know what I'm talking about. It doesn't mean I can provide therapy for all your personal problems. I'm not that good at it, right? I think there are people that are much better than me at doing that. So I can't necessarily help his situation and and so sometimes it can make me feel depressed as well because it's like again it's like that happiness vacuum thing but the difference is that person he will let he will lodge his complaints to me personally right so it's a me and him thing it's a brother on brother thing he doesn't go on the internet feel everybody feels sorry for me mope mope with me in the comments um you know Jesus come take us back soon we can't take it and I'm just going to vent. I don't agree with this attitude. Okay? And I've known other people like this where they think, "Oh, life would be better if I was just dead." Well, it wouldn't if you found a more useful purpose in your life. I don't think, you know, someone with ill health problems notwithstanding because they can't help that. But I think there are a lot of people who they just need to be given a a metaphorical whip and and just like, you know, told to get over it basically. I I understand that's hard to accept in this day and age where everybody's got a mental health problem and everybody's got trauma and we don't know how to suffer anymore. And I get that not everybody has ears to hear what I just said. But really, I think as a as a species, God needs to send some hard times and we need to start toughening up because we we don't know how to cope with adversity anymore. And I and I think that this this person epitomizes that kind of that type of person >> where Jesus Christ to rapture us. And I can't wait for the consummation of all things. I can't wait for all all of even the temporarily damned into the lake of fire. I can't even wait for them. I can't wait for them to be saved either. >> I mean, you'll be waiting a very very very very long time to say to say the least. >> I can't wait for the consummation of all things when all of God's creation is finally glorified and unified and made one in himself. That God is all in all. I cannot wait for that. I mean the thing is when that happens and and all is made all and all is one in Christ. The reason it will be that way is because the wi the wickedness of the world that we now live in will at least be somewhat dealt with to to a large degree. Okay? So that's why the world's going to improve based on that alone. It's not going to be because all of those people are going to get saved. I'm I'm sorry to tell you, you know, I'm I'm not even longing for the rapture. I'm longing for the consummation of all things to to be fulfilled already. That's what I'm longing for. But but here's the problem. He he's longing for a certain version of it that that isn't described by scripture. I I think that's a big problem for him. Uh and this is this again this is why this is all part of a cope because I do believe that Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the sins of every single human being that's ever been born and ever shall be born to very last onto the consummation of all things. >> See now notice as well the repetition the consummation of all things. consummation of all things. Consummation of all things. It's kind of like as well as being vague that you could apply it to anything. It It almost sounds like brainwashy. And I think a lot of hyper graces are kind of like this where they they just repeat these slogans over and over again. And because like is it Greg or David once said that um you you or they've said probably multiple times, you should preach the gospel to yourself over and over again. To me, that just sounds very strange. I I don't know why. I I you know, it could be an arrogant thing. Maybe I'm just more confident about I don't feel the need to do that. And that sounds arrogant, I guess. I don't know. It's not meant to be. But it's this thing that we constantly have to keep telling ourselves something to convince ourselves that it's true. I mean, why don't you just believe that it's true? It's very odd. But it's like they have to say this statement over and over again, and then they create these parrots that just repeat the same things. It's very nauseating when you're not part of the club because I I I mean, correct me if I'm wrong. I don't think I'm like this. I don't just repeat slogans constantly. Um, notwithstanding. Okay, but that that's just me making a joke and I believe that he just happens to be God himself. So no, I'm not a universalist because the universalist believe one thing at the expense of the other that are both equally as important, both equally the gospel. >> I mean, he's inventing a caricature of what a lot of universalists are like. A lot of them are really just like him really >> that we are to believe in order to have the age during life for the next two the next two eons. >> And and this is again because he because he's playing with the word eon here. I think he can't just say eternal life. He can't just say forever. It's got to be age during it's got to be eons. I it's these play on words. And if it's not to manipulate the definition of eon for why eternal condemnation isn't eternal, I can't otherwise explain why he's doing this. >> The next two ages, for us to be a part of the millennial reign and for us to be a part of the new birth, we have to believe the gospel. be justified by faith. But ultimately, even those who don't who don't who end up missing out on the next two eons to come, they're still going to be saved and live forever and receive all the benefits that we who have believed to have received even though they were the last and I'm asking this question rhetorically because I I know what the answer is going to be. Where is the clear passage in scripture that articulates this besides half a verse where you've rephrased it into consummation of all things which which is so vague. Where is the clear articulation of this idea from scripture? Cuz I I can't find it. >> Last to be brought in first shall be last and last will be first. Right. >> And that's that's see what again it's misappropriating statements from the Bible. Well, ultimately, everybody's going to be brought in because that's how good God is. Because that's how faithful God is to his word. That's how confident he is in his own will to have all to be saved and to have all live gloriously and in perfect union with himself and in himself. That way, he is going to be all in all things, all people, all things. So, again, it's like paring. I don't know if anybody else finds this ve this language very annoying. I find it very annoying. I mean to be fair, I'm sure he probably if he's if he has watched this far, he probably thinks I'm annoying. I don't know. >> Including all. >> Right. Uh this is going to be So somebody's going to ask him a question. And this seems like a fairly innocent question. Why do you think all will be saved? Right. And I and I think I I have the same question. And I and I would I don't even think that comes across as a rude or a sarcastic question. To me, it seems like a genuine question. I know with written communication, it's hard to tell. Are they being sarcastic? Are they being rude? Do they mean something very different than what I think they mean? You know, we can read it the wrong way if we are in a bad mood ourselves. We just assume that written communication is being rude when we're in a bad mood. It's really going to set him off though. In the last couple of minutes in this video, this question is really going to set him off. >> All the ones who take the mark of the beast in the tribulation, they're ultimately then the end too because that's how good God is. >> Well, it's also a heresy. >> I think I I don't think all will be saved. I know all will be saved because the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished the redemption by shedding his blood on Calvar's cross and rose for the justification because he's the propitiation for the sins of everybody, not just for those who actually believe the gospel. And this is again random tidbits from different verses and then mashing them up into a completely new sentence. You can believe something as arrogantly or smuggly as you believe it. That that doesn't make it true though. Okay. Mike Kowski is pretty smug about what he believes. James Fraser is pretty smug about what he believes. That doesn't mean that it's true though. No matter how fervent you are about what you believe. Okay. Now, if you hopefully believe in the right gospel and you're fervent about that, that's great. But that the things the Bible actually taught you that though. That's the difference. >> That's why I believe it because of the word of God. The word of God who is Jesus Christ himself made it very clear that all will be saved in the end because that's how good he is. Because he really did accomplish the redemption >> because his will is for all to be saved and he will have his will accomplished. God will have his will eternally fulfilled to his eternal satisfaction to have all that he's ever created to be glorified, >> eternally satisfied, to be one with him. That is what that's the reason why I believe what I believe and that's why I speak so boldly on it. So, you can go ahead. >> Well, so I'd love to believe this. Again, it it's not this to me doesn't seem like a mean-spirited comment. It just sounds like he's saying, "I wish I could believe what you believe, but I can't accept your belief." Right? And again, that's why I speak so boldly on it. It doesn't require that much boldness to say things on the internet. Okay? Especially when you block people that upset you on the slightest thing and you surround yourself in an echo chamber. Now, again, I don't know what adversity he faces on any Discord groups. I perhaps one or two of you should probably stop bothering with Discord, but that's something nobody will ever take a leaf on my book about avoiding social media. I'm just I'm I'm not on Discord, so I'm not constantly surrounded by people attacking me left, right, and center on the internet. Every now and then you you know I have those like demoniacs that are commenting on my posts recently. Like every single post, I just set their mute notification thing to mute so I don't even notice most of the time what they're posting. I don't notice. and one of them like I didn't even have to mute him because he's so rude in every single comment. YouTube doesn't even tell me that he commented anyway, so I still don't, you know, who cares. Um, and that's the mo, you know, the most opposition I receive from the internet is keyboard warriors. It's not bold. It's just this is just it's stroking your own ego. It's inflating your own um, you know, value to the kingdom really that. So, but it but he's really triggered by the question that this guy asked. It seems >> and question me all you want. All you guys go ahead. I invite you to guys keep questioning me. Keep testing me. Keep putting me under the freaking rod red line freaking heat until I [ __ ] blow up in the [ __ ] fiery inferno. Go ahead. [ __ ] go right ahead. I don't [ __ ] care anymore. I it look I've been criticized by one or two subscribers every now and then for the way that I've answered questions in the comments. Okay, I I'm not a saint when it comes to not overreacting to questions and comments mainly. The thing is often I actually know that the person asking a question has an agenda. I I I wouldn't treat this question as an agenda loaded question. It just sounds like somebody doesn't know his channel very well and saw this and is just curious. I I don't But he's taking it as such a personal attack. Everybody's out to get me. This is a certain type of character. Complains about everything. Everything's always wrong. They never get what they want, but they won't do things to get what they want. They just want sympathy and they just want to complain about it. But then every single question, every single bit of micro opposition, people that just won't see your point of view is a personal attack. And this is why he has this theology. It's a coping mechanism. He can't cope with opposition. He can't cope with the fact that most Christians don't agree with him. He can't cope with the fact that he doesn't like the doctrine that most Christians believe in. Even if you isolate works, Todds, he still doesn't like what most of us easy belieists believe. You know, he doesn't like free grace. hyper grace is too legalistic for him. He thinks I'm a Calvinist because I he misinterpreted a comment I said that had nothing to do with Calvinism or well one of his subscribers. I guess it wasn't him that called me a Calvinist to be fair. But it's just such a cope. Like this is all coping is what this is. And he's taking everything as a as a personal attack. >> Go [ __ ] right ahead. [ __ ] bring it on. [ __ ] [ __ ] questions you want. I'll [ __ ] answer them all [ __ ] goddamn day. >> But he's not answering them though. He's just getting angry and upset because the question was asked and he's like, "Man, relax. What What's wrong? That's a good question." So, if you if you're watching this and you were one of his subscribers who saw his post showing his reply to me and calling me all these insults and call, you know, people calling me a cowardice in the comments and then you said that I manipulated when I tried to share my side on my own channel and I had a word limit. If this doesn't tell you that he does overreact, I don't really know how else to defend myself because how he's reacting now verbally [snorts] is essentially what he did to me in writing when he misconstrued a comment that was meant to be an encouragement as like a Calvinistic you're not really safe type comment. Now again when when I read the comment I could I realized oh what an idiot. I realized I worded that comment stupid. He could have misinter but it's this thing with written communication. You assume that when you think it a certain way, you assume that everybody reads it how you think it and often you overlook that that could have been misconstrued. But he overreacts to even the slightest opposition. [ __ ] bring it on. [ __ ] keep [ __ ] asking me [ __ ] questions. Keep [ __ ] testing me. >> Nobody's testing him. It It was a simple question, right? This is not a difficult question. But this is what I meant earlier though about when I said that he makes these boogeymen that he's at war against. Everybody's out to get him. Everybody's out to attack him. Everybody's against him. Everybody's trying to, you know, put a demon in him. He's invented a wall that nobody's fighting. And then he's having to claim that he's having to boldly stand up for himself when he isn't. He's just overreacting to a simple question, saying that he can answer any question, but he hasn't actually answered the question. >> [ __ ] you all. And there it is rebuking random people on the internet who have done nothing. And I think because he deleted a lot of posts like I I can't like show you posts on the screen and give the evidence for everything that I'm saying today, but I do remember once seeing a post by this guy where he was whining and complaining at his subscribers for not replying to a previous post like, "Oh, nobody cares about me. You all just don't care." And it's like it's such just like 14-year-old attention seeking, right? It's it's it's it's really ridiculous. And again, it's like he he just can't cope with anybody. And this is why universalists and people with a cope doctrine like this guy can't find other people or enough other people that agree with them on anything. And everything's a personal attack. So they they just hardly have anybody that listens to them. And the few people that will listen to them are just people that just don't argue with them and will just they're just they just listen and they spectate, but they don't have anything to contribute. >> All I ever [ __ ] cared about all I ever all I ever [ __ ] wanted was my female partner just to enjoy this life with. But you know what? [ __ ] it all. >> Well, again, females aren't going to want to spend their life with somebody who behaves like this. I know I don't speak for all women. I know I'm not an expert on women by any stretch of the imagination, but even I can take a guess at certain things, and I would take those odds to a casino. >> [ __ ] you all, too. >> And the thing is like he can say that, right? He can dismiss us all and and throw the f- word around and this, that, and the other. He's the person, and this is the strange kind of paradox with people like this. Throughout this video, he's constantly tried to reaffirm and repeat positive language, the consummation of all things. Christ is going to s save everybody. It sounds wonderful. This is great. Everything's going to be consumated. This is going to be brilliant. Hell is temporary. Even the devil's going to be saved. It's going to be so good. God is so loving. Does this strike you as a happy person? Right. If if you had to judge his whole life based on how he presents himself on YouTube, he doesn't strike me as the person who is very happy with his life. So, you've got this person who only ever speaks about positivity. Positivity. doesn't want to hear anything negative, but he's not a positive happy person. And that ought to tell you that his mentality doesn't really work. And and it's all just a coping mechanism. The Bible is not clearly articulating that the devil will be saved and that hell is temporary. It's not articulating that. He doesn't like chunks of the B. The bottom line is he struggles with parts of the Bible. It makes him uncomfortable. He doesn't like the Christian disagreement and the fact that Christians all call each other heretics and hellbound devil. And I understand that some of you feel like that. I get that. You know, I wish it could be like the Bible where we have all these churches everywhere and we all kind of agree, but that's just not how it is. So, so you know, he's frustrated with this and he's frustrated with that. So, all of this the consummation of all I can't wait for this Jesus take me now. I can't wait for the end. It's all a cope because he can't deal with anything in this life. He can't deal with adversity. He can't deal with reality. He can't deal with things that the the Bible says that you won't be married in eternity. I'm sorry to burst your bubble. I didn't write the Bible. And I I I'm I'm not doing this video to be this is a lot longer than I anticipate because this is completely unplanned. But I'm not trying to be mean to this guy. I'm not trying to be nasty to this guy. I don't want any of my subscribers to go into his comments and start being mean to him or rebuking him or or I don't want you to laugh at him in my comments. I don't want you to mock him. I'm not saying this to be a bastard. I'm saying this because I want to tell you, my subscribers, please don't behave like this. And I'm not saying it for my benefit cuz I don't really give a damn how you behave. If you want to set up your own channel and behave like this yourself, it doesn't affect my life. I don't care. Okay? I'm not trying to be friends with everybody and come by and get on with everybody and we all agree on everything and everybody approves of me personally. I'm saying this for your benefit, okay? Don't mope around whining and complaining but not doing anything about it and expecting to use the internet as some sort of free therapist where we all owe it to you to to make your problems go away and we're all supposed to donate to sometimes he's asked for donations to help with his EBT. I think I I I apologize if that's a false claim on my part, but like but the thing is if you didn't whine all day and you got a job, then you might not have that problem. Now, if you've got some health problem or some mental problem or or some sort of reason why you will justify to the bitter end why you can't get a job, right? And that's your limitation and you can't do it. Okay. Well, the thing is the least you can do for the rest of the internet though is not drag everybody else down with you and make everybody else miserable and just turn your channel into just a pity party where everybody just has to console each other and feel sorry for each other. Now again, I know people who are struggling. They are struggling in ways that I cannot relate to. I struggle to empathize with because I'm not feeling it. Okay? and they're reading this victorious life that Paul talks about and they're not seeing it and that's frustrating. Okay, I get that people are struggling. But they don't all go on the internet whining and complaining about it in public and then ripping on every single person that even in an honest fashion just wants to know why do you feel like this? What's wrong? Why do you see it this way? Look at it. Have you tried looking at this other way? But people like this they they they don't want to hear it. Right? This is a This is an example of what not to follow. And I didn't want to do this video. It's very different from the kind of subjects I would talk about. It's not a biblical training video of any kind. You know, it's not my best content. I don't like to do content where I just expose everybody else like I'm the only person who's right about everything and, you know, everybody else who's not me is a is a something or other. I don't want to be famed for that. But I have seen this guy for quite a long time in my YouTube feed and so I finally wanted to just come out and say this like don't don't fall down this trap. That that's all I'm saying. Okay. So I I mean no personal animosity towards him. I don't know if he's ever going to watch this video this far. I can't imagine him lasting this long to be honest. Um but yeah, I I hope somebody else benefits from this. It just just an example of what not to follow. basically just, you know, don't use the internet as your therapy tool for just complaining to everybody else, okay? Because it's not actually our fault. It's not our problem. And we don't all have this mentality. Not all of us are desperate for Jesus to come right now and take us out of the world. Some of us actually aren't that bothered about the way the state of the world is. We don't even think about it. Okay? Each to their own. You may disagree with me on that. You may even have a problem with the fact that I'm like that. And I I seem very kind of like I don't care. I'm apathetic. I you know that you're welcome to criticize me for that in the comments if you like, but we're not all like this. And but this again, this is this is a happiness vacuum. It sucks the happiness out of everybody else. And if you constantly talk positive things from the Bible, but you're not a happy person, what whatever you believe about the Bible isn't working for you. And you're not you're not dealing with reality. You're not coping very well with what the Bible says. And so this theology, this universalism, this everybody is going to be safe thing, it's a cope. I I I don't know what else to tell you. So, um, do do like comment on this by the way. Like I, you know, do say if you don't agree with me doing this video or if you have a problem with the way that I've handled this guy or, you know, if you're one of his subscribers, maybe tell me what you think and what your take on all of this. Um, I I don't know, but I I'll I'll just leave it there. So,
