Edgar, what's your background? I'll turn on my camera. Or no, you don't need to, unless you wanna try to get a woman to marry you. Are you married? Yeah, I'm married. I'm married. I'm married. It's up to you. Wanna keep the camera on? Yeah, I'll keep the camera on. Um, just background, see my face. Um, I came, I, my background currently right now, um, I was on your stream like, I would say, three weeks ago. I was the one-ness kid that was asking you about the one question. Um, so I finally, yes, so we finally left and we went to our first, uh, Divine Liturgy at the Orthodox Church last week. Yeah, so I just wanna kind of thank you a lot, Sam, because you are the, the, the person that opened my eyes and made me test where I was at, and now I'm finally going back to the roots of the church. And so I want to thank you. I want to thank you a lot for that. Um, you're, you're the one that pushed me to be here. Um, thank Jesus. Thank Jesus for using me. And pray for me, then, that God will save me and I don't shame the Lord. Brother, but go ahead. Praise the Lord. Yeah, exactly.

Um, so, okay, so I'm here. I also had some friends from the same church that I kind of, I kind of talked to them about the Trinity, and they also left. But amen. Shoot. Yeah, yeah. Amen. So, but they didn't follow my steps because I think they kind of question still a lot of things, which I, I, I assumed it was gonna be normal. They weren't gonna just submit to the Catholic Church yet, but they've been getting really convinced by that. Need, need, God, dine it. Why don't you come and ask me questions? He's, he's pathetic. He's one of the worst. He's a sad excuse for a human being, let alone a Christian. But where are they? Yeah, so right, right now, they're currently in like limbo. They, they stopped attending church. But where are they now? Are they there? They can come and ask me. No, no, no, no. They're not. Um, so I wanna like answer, I, I wanna truly answer them. And I kind of give them scripture, but they use Ryan's theology a lot. Like, most of his theology is a from the pit of hell. He's a false teacher. He's a tool of Satan. So yeah, that's why I'm saying, why don't you have them come and ask me? But you know, set it up. I mean, I'll bring it up. But I mean, what could Ryan say to? I mean, listen, I, I don't blame them because they're still young. Yeah. There is no one who is semi-intelligent. I'm not attacking them. They're babes. So don't take this the wrong way. I'm not saying them. Yeah. There's no one who's semi-intelligent, semi-semi-literate, and knows the Bible and church history would ever be convinced of Ryan. He is a joke. He's one of the worst. And I'm saying this honestly. He's one of the worst. I'll tell you, when there's a good Protestant, a good Protestant who is good, is Gavin O'Toole. You have to give credit where credit is due. I can see why. Alright, yeah. Gavin, you know, he's intelligent and he's not stupid. Anyone convinced by need facelift.net and need growth hormone badly dot com, then it's because they're very biblically uneducated and ignorant of history. Yeah, because I've seen also that I think he wanted to debate Jay Dyer. And oh my goodness, he was trying to put the subject as in like, it's either faith or works, it can't be both. No, because he stood up. Yeah. I don't know if you can just help me. So like, maybe they can just refer back to this video and help if you, um, Romans, like the context of Romans, because they love to use Romans 4:5. Hahaha. Hold on, hold on. Edgar, I love you. You're my favorite loser. You know why? I'll tell you why you're my favorite loser. I, I answered for you. But have them come and say, hey, bring up Ryan's arguments because I've already demolished him and others' notion. Romans 4:05. But right here, you're gonna see on my playlist. As long as you don't play me, cause you got a list. Ha ha ha. Hey, don't laugh at me. Alright, let me show you the false gospel of false YouTube preachers. This is a list where I demolished need growth hormone badly.net. See right here, the false gospel, false YouTube teachers. Yeah. Alright, that's I did that in honor of him. But then also water baptism, I did that in honor of him. Okay. But I'll answer that because that shows you he's a special kind of stupid. You know, they're stupid, but then they're special kind of stupid, right? Yeah. And then they, they see also James 2:24. When I asked them, what do you guys think about that? And they said, oh, it's just works that don't profit unto men. Well, come and prove that's what they got from Ryan. That's what they got from Ryan. And I also got hemorrhoids from Ryan. Does that mean it's a good thing? No. I'm not gonna ask how. Don't ask how. No, I'm just saying because, you know, from from getting me so depressed for lies and stuffing my face, that's why that's how you know. And then you get constipated. You know what happens, man? You're so sick. Hey, yo, what are you, what are you talking about, man? You're the one who said it, not me. Could you see it says, does water baptism save? Yeah. See that right there? Okay. You see that? Okay. This was all done for need facelift badly.net. So Romans 4:05. This tells you, if they follow Ryan, then they're gonna have Paul being a false prophet, an antichrist, and they're gonna have to become Muslim. You ready? Why? You ready why? Why I'm saying that? If they follow Ryan, that means Paul is a false prophet. He's an antichrist. Can you explain? Can you guess why? Uh, he, why he's an antichrist? Paul, if, if you believe Ryan, then you make Paul an antichrist. You know why? Because even, even, even, even Christ himself says, uh, faith is a work. So then why do I need to answer the question? Yeah, it's cause they, they don't, they, they, I don't know that if they're like just spiritually blind that they don't want to hear it in a way. But I think they just been really. Why, why are you gonna force them? Because this is the passage. But to the one who does not work, but believes on him, upon him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness. So what is the faith? The one who believes on God, right? Yeah. And here it says, see, the one who does not work, but believes upon, upon him. So he's saying, see, belief, faith is not a work. No. Jesus says it is. John 6:27-29: "Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you, for on him the Father God has set a seal." Therefore they said to him, "What should we do so that we may work the works of God?" What should we do to do these works? Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom He has sent." So if you're gonna interpret Paul to mean believing is not a work, that means he's an antichrist, 'cause Jesus said believing is a work, the necessary work you must do to be saved. Yeah. If that's, yeah. And I've seen how Ryan explained it because then he, on that verse, he says that it's not the work that we do, it's the work of God. But can I try this again? Let's try this again. What must we do to do the works of God? The work of God, that you must do, is believe. Who's doing the work of God? We are. So the work of God doesn't mean God is working. Because that shows you he's more illiterate than Muhammad. It means, what is the work that God requires of us? The work of God means the work that God requires of us. I mean, here, believe. Even a five-year-old will see. What shall we do that we may work the works of God? Meaning the works from God. The works that God demands us to do. This is the work of God. This is the work that God wants you to do. Believe in Him who sent, sent Him. Do I have to really break it down to that minute detail for you, brother? Yeah, I know because you're some, yeah. But it says it's a work of God. Do I really need? I mean, honestly, if you want, I know because, yeah, you know, with divine mercy, I have to really like go like syllable for syllable. I have to say this word has two syllables, this one has three. So that's the level of depth it requires. So when it says, what work must we do? Oh, it's not you doing it, it's God doing it. So God is believing for them. Yeah. No, exactly. Yeah. And then that, but yes, sir. Sorry. And then that's like the, that's why I kind of told them that. But then then they were like, oh crap. Like, then, then does that mean? Well, 'cause the theology that Ryan teaches, they asked me, they're like, so does that mean we're only saved by works? So Ryan puts this perspective of like, you're either saved by faith alone, or you're saved only by works. And who told you faith alone excludes works? What is faith that alone saves? Yeah. So that's why I was trying to just trying to kind of explain. But I'm not that. What is the works that Paul is excluding? What works is Paul? Yes, because in the chapter 4, he's talking about circumcision, and that Abraham was justified apart from circumcision, and that's a carry from chapter 3. 'Cause he's trying to refute the Jews who say the only type of faith that God will accept and reward with immortal life, the only kind of faith is being faithful to the Torah. And Paul says, no, you don't have to be faithful to the Torah to be rewarded with immortal life. You just have to be faithful to do what God tells you to do when he tells you to do it. So when there was no law of Moses, how was Abraham faithful to God? There was no law of Moses. So how is he faithful to God? I'm not sure. Think about it. The opponents of Paul, they're debating with Paul saying, look, you need to believe in Jesus, but then you have to have faith in God, and that faith is being faithful to do what God tells you to do. And faithfulness means you need to be Torah observant. There's no other way to be faithful to God except observing the Torah. That's the entire debate in Romans 4. The law of Moses. So then his argument with Abraham is simple. All right, did Abraham have the law of Moses? No. What's your answer? But was Abraham faithful? Yes. How? There was no law. Yeah, exactly. Okay, that's the argument of Romans and Galatians. So in that context, is Paul referring to Genesis 12 or 15? What context? Uh, where Abraham's faith was counted for righteousness? Genesis 15. He quotes it right in Romans 4:3. But what does that got to do with the point of what Paul points? Explain it to me. Because isn't it in like, in their context, I'm not that knowledgeable, but isn't it in their context like it has to be, if sola fide were true, then Paul must have had, must have had reference Genesis 12 to prove their doctrine. But he's actually referencing whose doctrine? The sola fide doctrine. No, they'll tell you Genesis 15 says what God credited was Abraham's faith. So you see, it's all you need is faith. That's why they run to Genesis 15 'cause Paul used it. But that tells you that they're not too bright. Why do you think Paul used Genesis 15? I'm not sure. That's like where I'm kind of like, I, what other passage could Paul quote to show that Abraham's faith was credited as righteousness without needing the law of Moses? I'm not sure. I don't know if you can show me. I'm about to lay hands on you and shave your head. Alright, brother. I'm the, hey, I'm just trying to, I'm trying to learn, brother. You just quoted it. Genesis 15, brother. Yeah. Is there any other passage in Genesis where it says Abraham was reckoned righteous besides Genesis 15? No. So why would you be shocked that he quotes the passage where it explicitly says, because Abraham trusted God, it was credited to his righteousness to make his point. Judaizers, God already reckoned him faithful and righteous without the law of Moses. That's the only passage that uses that language. Okay, okay. So do you understand why he would appeal to Genesis 15? 'Cause Genesis 15 came before the law of Moses, right? Yeah, exactly. So how would Paul set about to prove his point? You Judaizers are wrong. You don't need to be faithful to the law to be righteous and justified before God. You need to trust God and do what he tells you whenever he tells you, whether he tells you get circumcised, right? Leave your country, live in a strange land, or get baptized in Christ. Paul's point is the only constant throughout salvation history is being faithful to God. What that faithfulness looks like will change depending on the circumstance. What do I mean? When there was no law of Moses, were those people still faithful to God? Yes. But you just made Paul's point. Faithfulness doesn't come about the law of Moses. Because if that's the case, then none of them were faithful because they didn't have the law of Moses. But they were faithful. And what is Paul's point? Faithfulness does not depend on keeping the law. Yes. When the law was revealed, the only way to be faithful at that time was to keep the law. But now that Christ has come, faithfulness requires you being faithful to Christ and His covenant. This is the argument he's making. Let me explain to you why Paul quotes Genesis 15 and nothing else. Okay, here, common sense. If you're not a Bible pervert and demonized, it's common sense. What Paul is saying, here's the passage that Paul quotes in Romans 4:3, right? And he quotes it also in Galatians 3:6. "Then he believed in Yahweh and He counted him as righteousness." Right? That's what he quoted. Romans 4:3, correct? Yeah. Okay. Now follow me. The same language is used of Phinehas in Psalm 106:30 and 31. "Then Phinehas stood up and interceded, and so the plague was checked." I'm gonna show you what the context is. Phinehas is the time of Moses when the Israelites committed sexual sin offenses by sleeping with Midianite Moabite women and worshipping Baal. God was angry and disgusted and brought a plague. So what did Phinehas do? There was an Israelite man who brought in a Moabite woman to fornicate with her as they're worshipping Baal. He speared them through and killed them dead. He speared them through and killed them dead. And here it says, what he did when God saw it, He stopped the plague. Now, that act he did, you see the language, "and was counted to him for righteousness." Same language used of Abraham. Yeah, exactly. "From generation to generation." You see it? Yeah. Same language. Abraham believed God and was counted as righteous. Same language in Hebrew and Greek if you look at it. But notice, Phinehas was counted righteous for showing his zeal and faithfulness to God by justly killing the Israelite and the Moabite, right? Well, now, why do you think Paul didn't quote this? I'm not sure. Why do you think Paul? Because this comes after the law, and it would make the Jews' point because they'll say, see, Paul, he was zealous for the law of God, and that's why he was righteous. So this would not have made his point. Okay. So, and, um, just like a little question, uh, how was, how was Abraham's faith counted for righteousness? Did he do works leading up to his faith getting? Brother, don't make me angry with my shoestrings. When God told him to do something, did he do it? Like, leave his country? Yeah. Live in tents as a stranger? Yes. Get circumcised? Okay. Yeah. Or no? You're like, that is it? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And offer his son Isaac? Yes. So his entire life was a life of doing what God told him to do. Okay. Nice. Yeah. I was, yeah, that's why I'm like, I'm, I'm saying I'm asking this because I want him to understand. Like, he did stuff leading to his faith getting counted for righteousness. Of course, he did stuff. He did this first step was when God told him, leave your land, and he did it. That is an action, an act of obedience, doing what God told him. That's why Hebrews 11:8-10 says Abraham was already justified before Genesis 15. Let's read it. This is what happens when you put the Bible in the hands of a son of Satan like Ryan. Here it is. Hebrews 11, the entire chapter is about the faith that saves, the faith that pleases God, the faith that makes you righteous, and the faith that God rewards. So I'm starting at 6 so you can see it. "Without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who draws near to God must believe that He is, and He is a rewarder of those who seek Him." So what kind of faith is Hebrews talking about? Dead faith. What kind of faith? Say it again. Dead faith. You're about to be dead in a minute, brother. What kind of faith is he talking about here? I don't understand. What, what do you mean by what type of faith? What kind of faith does God reward those who seek Him? Okay, what would you call that faith? Seeking faith. God have mercy on your life. You're gonna, hey, you're gonna save her a lot of time from purgatory. I love you, man. Be patient. All right. How old are you, young man? I'm, I'm 24. I'm 25. You're the son I never wanted. But anyway, come back here, brother. How is a man justified according to need Growth hormone.net? By faith alone. All right. What is the faith that God justifies and rewards? True faith, right? Yeah. True faith. So what is this talking about? This chapter, fake faith or true faith? True faith. Okay, now we got it, brother. Yeah. Now I got. Okay, now, sorry, I'm a little slow. Xbox and iPhone, get off. I thought you repented of Xbox, brother. But and Netflix. But okay, now, did Abraham have this faith that pleases God before Genesis 15? Well, let's read. Let's read. "By faith Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world and became an heir of righteousness which is according to faith." Now notice, everyone's faith is active. Everyone's faith is a faith where they're doing something. "By faith he built an ark." Now, this is the faith that God justifies and rewards. His righteousness, right? Yes. When did Abraham have it? Here you go. Hebrews 11:8-10: "By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed by going out." There is an action he did, a deed he performed, which he was to receive for inheritance, and he went out not knowing where he was going. "By faith he sojourned." Look, it's action. The faith that pleases God is an active faith that is obeying God and acting upon what He tells you to do. "He sojourned in the land of promise as in a foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same promise, for he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God." So did Abraham already have the faith that pleased God that God rewarded and in which God saw and made him righteous before Genesis 15? Yes. Yeah. How do we know? Before Genesis 15. How do we know? Yeah, because he left up the land he was told that. Oh, because this happened before Genesis 15, right? He had already left. Genesis 11, Genesis. Okay. So Ed, you got it here? Yes. That's so was he already justified in Genesis 11, 12, and 13 and 14? Yes. So he wasn't justified in Genesis 15. He was already justified. And how did he maintain his justification? How did he remain justified throughout that period? Doing the deeds he did. You got it. By actively obeying God throughout his whole life. That's the Catholic Orthodox doctrine of justification. Yeah. Okay. Faith is obedient. So how can one, as like, um, 'cause I'm, I'm still new. I, I missed the first catechism today unfortunately, 'cause I got out of work late. Um, for example, he always like, when he debates Catholics, the first thing he goes to and resorts to is, how sure are you of going to heaven? On a scale of 1 to 1? As sure as God's word tells me that if I am faithful and I remain in union with Christ, then Christ will forgive me. I'm as sure as what God tells me in His word. Okay. What did Jesus say? "If you abide in me and I in you, you shall bear much fruit. But if you don't abide in Him, what happens?" "You shall be cut off and burned up." Right? Yes. So instead of asking me a stupid question, I'm not you. Him. Hmm. You have a false security 'cause your security is based on a false gospel which will damn you to hell. You have no certainty 'cause you're preaching a false gospel. My assurance is based on what Christ tells me that if I remain in Him, and remaining in Him doesn't mean I'll be perfectly obedient. Remaining in Him means acknowledging my sin, sin and confession. Why do you think there's confession? Why do you think there's confession? He will be faithful to forgive me and pardon me. That's not me, that's what Jesus says in John 15, all the way from verses 1 to 10. He says, "Abide in me and I in you, because if you don't abide in Him, He'll cut you off." So if He tells you He has assurance, say, "No, you're a deceiver and deceived 'cause you have a false gospel. You have a false assurance based on a false gospel, and you'll be one of those whom Jesus says, 'I never knew you.'" So how sure are you that you have an assurance of salvation when you don't know the gospel and pervert and mislead people? 'Cause here's what Jesus says. John 15:1-10: "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away, and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, so that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit from itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me." Clear as day. "I am the vine; you are the branches. He who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up, and they gather them and cast them into the fire; they are burned." So how do I remain in Him and abide in Him? Notice it's abiding, it's continual. He tells you, "If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, it will be done for you. My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be My disciples. Just as the Father loved Me, I also have loved you. Abide in My love." How do I abide in His love? How do I know that I will be forgiven? "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love." So is He saying Jesus is lying? Why is it when I quote Jesus' words, "Well, how much assurance do you have if it's on works?" Jesus' words, I'm quoting Jesus. Are you disagreeing with Jesus? So I quote Jesus saying, "Abide in My love, because if you don't abide in Me, you'll be cut off and burned." But if you abide in Me, and how do you abide in Me? "By obeying My commands," then you won't be cut off. And you're now still telling me, "Oh, so it's works salvation." You have no assurance, buddy. I'm telling you what Jesus said. Exactly. Why do you have a problem with Jesus' gospel? 'Cause he's a false teacher, son of Satan. He teaches what we call antinomianism, right? Against the law. And Jesus condemns those who are against the law. I'll show it to you. "So if you keep My commandments, if you keep My, you will abide in My love." If you keep My commandments, that's how you remain in Me. Well, what if I don't keep His commandments? You'll be cut off. Do I need to show it again? Cast them to the fire. I mean, I quote Jesus on me. Well, do you have assurance? As much assurance that Jesus gives me right here. I'm quoting Jesus, and you're giving me your opinion. No, that's faith and work. No, that's true faith. "Just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete." If that's still not good enough, here's what Jesus says to those who teach antinomianism, right? Against the law, lawless salvation. So they can say, "Faith and works." No, I'm saying it's faithfulness is defined by Jesus. Jesus, how am I saved? You abide in Me. Continue abiding in Me. How? Obey My commands. Yeah, but I'll break Your commands. That's where confession and repentance comes in, and I'll forgive you. Matthew 7:21-23: "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' like Ryan, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who hears and believes, he who does the will of My Father." How is it these Bible perverts or can only give you one verse out of context? But when you give them verse after verse, chapter after chapter, context, "Do the will of My Father, abide in My love." And how do you abide in My love? "By keeping My commandments." 'Cause if you don't, you'll be cut off. And then they accuse us of preaching a false gospel. How? I mean, look here. Does it, does it say whoever says and believes, does the will of My Father? Does them? And then what does he say about Ryan and his false gospel? Because he's, he is the son of Satan. To repent. He's misleading people and damning them. "Who does the will of My Father, who is in heaven, will enter." Does the will, right? "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord,' like Ryan, 'in Your name didn't we not prophesy?'" Like Ryan, a false teacher. "And in Your name cast out demons? In Your name, did many miracles?'" And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you. Depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.'" See, you who do not obey My law. Could Jesus be any clearer, brother? Yeah. And I kind of mentioned it to them, but they've already been kind of, they've, they've been kind of trying to say like, "Oh, the will of the Father is in John 6:40." I think. Oh, you mean the same John that says that if you abide in My love by keeping My commandments, you won't be cut off? That same John? Yeah, I guess so. The one John that I just read, John 15? Yeah. You mean this John here? Hold on, wait, wait. This John here. This John who said, "If you don't abide in Me, you'll be cut off and burned. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up, they gather them and cast them into the fire; they are burned." That same John? That same John says, "If you abide in Me by having My words abide in you, and how do you abide in Me in My love? By keeping My commandments." That's how you remain in My love and abide in Me. That same John? Wow. So what if I don't do what He commands? Am I His friend? Nope. That same John? Huh? Yeah. Wow. Oh, I see. The same John who says this here. Same John. So you're making me go over stuff I've already went over, but that's okay. Yeah. Same John. It's alright. You know, John 14:21-24: "He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me, and the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him." Judas, not Iscariot, said to him, "Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?" Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words." That same John? Huh? Yeah. Wow. That says believing in Christ is obeying Christ, doing His commandments. 'Cause if you don't do His commandments, that means you don't love Him. And if you don't love Him, you're not abiding in Him. And if you're not abiding in Him, you'll be burned up and destroyed. That same John? Huh? Yeah. Wow. That's crazy. I'm gonna, um, try my best. I'm gonna see all your, uh, your playlist. I'll now send it to him and say, "Listen, come on up and ask them questions because he will shish kebab need growth hormone.net." Yeah. And I think I'm gonna tell them that because I think they would be actually very interested because I want them to see the truth, like how you explain it. But I think when I think they're, they're just so convinced right now by Ryan. Um, but just one last thing because I know there's a lot of people here wanting to, uh, yeah, go ahead, join the live. When it comes to the baptism, does save, is part of salvation? Um, I think somebody commented to him that Mark chapter 16, verse 9 through, I think 27, is not scripture we are to use. Is this scripture here, First Peter 3:21, "a corresponding that baptism now saves you"? So is that also not scripture? Wow. But why does he say that? Why, why does he say that? Because he's following French scholarship that assumes because Codex Vaticanus and Sinaiticus do not have the longer reading of Mark 16:9-20, that they were added later on, which is again, shows you he's dishonest and wicked and a son of Satan. Because 99.5% of all the extant copies of Mark in Greek that have Mark 16 with the longer ending have verses 9 to 20. And secondly, Irenaeus in the second century cites the longer ending of Mark 16 as part of what Mark wrote. But he doesn't care about evidence. Because you see what I did? All right, we'll ignore Mark 16:16. But then you go here and says, "Oh, but no, that doesn't mean it saves you." Even though it says, "Baptism now saves you." 'Cause here he can't say, here he cannot say it's not an original Peter. So what does he do now? Well, it doesn't mean that, but it just says, "Baptism now saves you, not by washing you from dirt, because we don't believe when you get dipped in the water, you're just taking a good bath. It washes your conscience, cleanses your heart and soul, because of your pledge to Christ, who by the resurrection makes these graces effective and guarantees they do what God promised will be done in these sacraments." Wow. Nice. Thank you so much. He's a joke, brother. He's a joke. I told you. That's why I don't respect him. Yeah, 'cause I, I'm not gonna lie, when I first left my, uh, the one-ness church, I did go to a Baptist church 'cause their sola fide sounded beautiful at the time. But once I realized it sounded way too good to be true, let me actually, um, verify I'm actually in the right. And then I started seeing your videos and I'm like, nope, I gotta go. It's an E, it's a license for easy beliefism. Believe me, brother. All of us here, every one of us would love Ryan's false gospel. You know why? That means I can live like a pig as long as I say I truly believe Jesus is Lord, Son of God, and forgive me, I'm okay. Who doesn't want easy beliefism? Yeah. So if we're all honest, if we're all honest, we all struggle with sin. I'm daily struggling with lust, daily struggling with the flesh, daily struggling with laziness, daily struggling with slothfulness, daily struggling with body dysmorphia that hinders me from getting. I'm under destruction. God gives me what I deserve. Don't you think I want to believe in easy beliefism? Yeah. Wow. Dude, yeah. Nothing. I, I just wanna give you a, I wanna, I wanna thank you and I wanna praise the Lord that He put you in my path because you truly convinced me to find the true church. I hope that you guys can pray for me and my wife so that we don't get discouraged from this path 'cause I know it's a lot that I still need to be convinced of. But, um, I pray that the Holy Spirit just guides me, continues to guide me in the right path. So thank you, Sam. I'm gonna see your, um, your playlist and I hope that God blesses you and James every day and He multiplies the, multiplies the converts like me to be 100 times more than me. So thank you, good man. Keep praying. We finish the race. And thank the Lord your wife married you 'cause you're gonna make sure she spends less time in purgatory. 'Cause you are a purging. Alright, thank you, Sam. God bless you, brother.
