Turek should stay away from philosophy. He makes things up as he goes along.
David Newhart
I've always had this mindset.
Everyone has freewill/freedom, but you need restraints/rules/laws. Praise God!

For those who never heard an for those who wanna share it.
HERE IS THE MILLMILLION-DOLLA. QUESTION: Will you go to Heaven when you die? Hereβs a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used Godβs name in vain? Jesus said, βWhoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.β If you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart, and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called Hell. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke Godβs Law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: βFor God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.β Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you…

This is the best message I have heard.
Success doesn't come from what you do occasionally, it comes from what you do consistently. Much knowledge shared on this video.

I have a serious level of respect for Mr Turek. A very gifted and knowledgeable man.

No one is free. Either you are a servant of God, or another master, a mortal master, shall step in.

Why are you conflating Freedom with Safety? Regardless of how smart or safe it may be being βfree inside the restrictionsβ isnβt Freedom.

Beloved, don't believe the dishonest scammer impersonating Cross Examined. In fact, not just this channel but they also impersonate many other youtubers as well. In fact, if anyone can send their contacts to scambaiters would be great. God bless

True story. I presided over driver license hearings (administrative hearings) for many years. One day a young woman appeared for her informal hearing; it involved just her explaining her behavior to me and then I would decide upon an appropriate action based on her record, her testimony, and my determination of risk. She suddenly said to me, "I wonder if I am saved?" It completely took me by surprise since I never expressed any religious ideas or concepts during hearings. I was surprised enough to not think of asking why she would come up with such a question at such a time. I did give her a brief explanation of the plan of salvation before continuing with the hearing. I do not recall what sanctions I imposed.
A few months later a formal hearing on a fatal traffic crash came up. A young male driver out late one night struck a woman crossing the street and killed her. As the case was presented I recognized the name of the deceased. It was this same young woman. She lived just about a month after seeing me.
I presided over several hundred fatal traffic crashes. All were tragic. This one in particular was memorable. The police, as part of their testimony, showed pictures of her lying in the middle of the road. She was about 20 years of age. One never knows how long one will live.
I recall a couple of children about 10 years of age riding bikes and killed. One was killed by a speeder. One was killed by a drunk driver who tried to flee the scene but could only drive a short ways because the bike had rolled up behind the front wheels and he could not steer the car around a curve.
Interesting Dr. Turek would use driving information in this video. Started memories flowing.

I think equating freedom with skillfulness gets into weird territory. As a fine point, I would say youβre free TO play the piano regardless of how much youβve practiced, but you will find your quality of playing suffers if you donβt submit to the disciple of practicing π

Freedom of thought
Freedom of speech
Freedom of religion
Freedom from religion.

That's a problem with America is we think Freedom means no discipline

Excellent insight Frank. The leftists need this message drilled into their heads.

Question: what is the definition of a prophet? What are some of their characteristics? Can a prophet get it wrong and still be considered a prophet?

Freedom from tyranny.
Freedom to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Atheists want the freedom to do anything but without the "restraints".

Thanks for removing comments.
The owner of this channel removes comments from Muslims.
He is afraid that his fans will discover the reality of their sect based on the lie about God and Jesus.
He takes advantage of their ignorance …
And this proves the weakness.

Lots of people claim to have seen loved ones alive after their death.
Itβs a wonder people havenβt made up stories about them.

"Freedom from" and "freedom to" are the same thing. If you have a car and a license, then you are "free from" the restraints of not being able to drive, or you could just say that you are "free to" drive. You have a freedom from religion or you can say that you are free to practice or reject any religion you want. I see no difference between freedom from and freedom to other than the way they are used in a sentence.

Allah has no name. But a title. Why did allah split the moon in half to show his miracle to the world at the time when everyone is sleeping except mohammed who was the only one up
upclose&personal 123
Allah only speaks one language. Arabic. And 90% of muslims cant speak arabic
upclose&personal 123
Why did allah give mohammed in wriiting form to spread to the world his teaching sent by an angel that asked him twice to read it and shook him the third time and told him to read it when mohammed cant read

There are three primary sources of religious energy which are the Holy Spirit, religious spirits, and soul power. During times of no outpouring of the Holy Spirit (as in this day and time) it is extremely rare to find someone speaking by the anointing of the Holy Spirit, but it is quite commonplace for religious people to have the anointing of a religious spirit, and/or to run on soul power.
Religious spirits and religious soul power seek to mimic the Holy Spirit, and sometimes they can be very convincing with their 'Do-Gooder' persona and their busy 'good works' agendas.
Sometimes soul power can be a good thing, as in construction trades, mechanical trades, sports, music, art, chess, math, science, higher learning, anything that requires special talent and ability. But religious soul power is pretty much always exploited by religious spirits, which is what is going on with all of these YouTube religionists who are being driven by religious spirits to be obsessed to post their worthless videos (YouTube was concocted by the kingdom of darkness overlords [aka fallen angels/principalities] as a forum for religious spirits to manifest through human mouthpieces, and it is working famously well for them).
Religious soul power sometimes drifts over into witchcraft which is also always exploited by religious spirits. Psychic phenomenon can be a form of witchcraft ( alsoTarot cards, 'law of attraction,' mind over matter phenomenon, etc.). Simon Magus of Acts 8:9-24 is an example of that.
The Philippian girl of Acts 16 beginning with verse 16 is an example of how a religious spirit manifests through a human mouthpiece, as in what is going on with all of these YouTube religionists (i.e. teachers, so-called 'prophets,' and other assorted self-appointed 'Do-Gooders' who are doing their own thing in the Lord's name, some of whom are making a lot of money doing it).
Politics is actually a lot of people's religion, and politicians and their followers are often targeted by religious spirits. There are a lot of spiritually defunct false teachers and false prophets whose credibility is dependent on their ranting about politics. YouTube is awash with them. If they didn't rant about politics nobody would pay any attention to anything they have to say.
If you decide to look up the accounts of Simon Magus and the Philippian girl, I suggest you read those sections of scripture in the King James Version.

Heres a funny one. So i asked a muslim friend of mine. What do yoi think of mohammed marrying a 12 year old being the old man he is. And he said it was different back then and agreed nothing is wrong with that. Then i asked him. If i have a 12 year old daughter that any man would desire including yourself. Would you take her. He said no. Why… cuz shes 12 years old. How funny. I also asked him if iys ok with him and not be a problem if that if he divorced his wife and the only way he cam get her back is if she sleeps with another man

Hello. I am an atheist. I define atheism as suspending any acknowledgement of the existence of gods until sufficient evidence can be presented. My position is that I have no good reason to acknowledge the existence of gods.
And here is the evidence as to why I currentlyΒ hold to such a position.
1. I personally have never observed a god.
2. I have never encountered a person whom has claimed to have observed a god.
3. I know of no accounts of persons claiming to have observed a god that were willing or able to demonstrate or verify their observation for authenticity, accuracy, or validity.
4. I have never been presented a valid logical argument which also employed sound premises that lead deductively to a conclusion that a god(s) exists.
5. Of the 46 logical syllogisms I have encountered arguing for the existence of a god(s), I have found all to contain multiple fallacious or unsubstantiated premises.
6. I have never observed a phenomenon in which the existence of a god was a necessary antecedent for the known or probable explanation for the causation of that phenomenon.
7. Several proposed (and generally accepted) explanations for observable phenomena that were previously based on the agency of a god(s), have subsequently been replaced with rational, natural explanations, each substantiated with evidence that excluded the agency of a god(s). I have never encountered vice versa.
8. I have never experienced the presence of a god through intercession of angels, divine revelation, the miraculous act of divinity, or any occurrence of a supernatural event.
9. Every phenomenon that I have ever observed has emerged from necessary and sufficient antecedents over time without exception. In other words, I have never observed a phenomenon (entity, process, object, event, process, substance, system, or being) that was created ex nihilo – that is instantaneously came into existence by the solitary volition of a deity.
10. All claims of a supernatural or divine nature that I have encountered have either been refuted to my satisfaction, or do not present as falsifiable.
ALL of these facts lead me to the only rational conclusion that concurs with the realities I have been presented – and that is the fact that there is no good reason for me to acknowledge the existence of a god.
I have heard often that atheism is the denial of the Abrahamic god. But denial is the active rejection of a substantiated fact once credible evidence has been presented. Atheism is simply withholding any acknowledgement until sufficient credible evidence is introduced. It is natural, rational, and prudent to be skeptical of unsubstatiated claims, especially extraordinary ones.
I welcome any cordial response. Peace.

The freedom God gives us will always have boundaries, we are free to cross those boundaries but must understand there will be a price in doing so

this is a muslim argument. good to see you submitting frank.

I don't necessarily disagree that effort is required to realize freedom, but Dr. Turek's examples are extremely bad. Take his car on the road example. "Freedom from all restraints" would in that case mean that there should be no road, no guard rails etc. In fact that situation would more closely match what the world looked like in the old days, when people were free to roam wherever they fancied, which I think most people would recognize as a more "free" state of affairs.
Dr. Turek's piano example also fails. He is completely free to play the piano badly. His example of hard work being a restraint on the freedom to buy stuff is also weird. There are people who inherit their wealth or win the lottery, are there not?
