God Made Everything Happen
I believe in God but I really can’t stand religious fanatics, Our way of thinking is exactly one of the reasons why Jesus came down to us. We do harm and blame the devil, in a way I blame religion for thinking this way. Evil is real but I don’t believe it’s responsible for our evil ways, we are. In order for us to truly have free will God had to give us free reign with our choice’s. We have the ability to either do good or do bad that’s what free will is, to be able to choose what you want to do or not to do. There aren’t any evil spirits making us do these thing’s, we tell ourselves these things to absorb ourselves from our evil action’s. The devil doesn’t make us evil nor does God make us good, we are born with a clean slate, we learn what good is & also what evil is. We spend our lives pretending to be righteous instead of just choosing righteousness. Life on earth is a gift, a gift from our creator. He gave us a taste of life in a “moment” of time before we could experience “eternity” with Him. God is the true example of what goodness is and the devil is the example of evil, Both are necessary in this moment called life. We are given a choice to either choose God or choose evil based on our choices in whatever we experience while we exist in this life.
We were born from sin into a fallen world filled with EVIL we must sidestep sin on our journey to rightouness which keeps us on the path to the kingdom of God almighty for eternal life evermore (the Bible is our best guide to accomplish this)
He was completely innocent and exonerated by the finding of actual proof and evidence of his own family! We can take a deep sigh of relief and rest assured that this was a gentle, kind, reverent and true man of impeccable faith and character and we need to pray for his family. We love you and miss you and thank you Ravi for your tireless devotion to Jesus Christ Our Lord and Saviour! We rebuke and renounce any smear campaign against our teacher and pure hearted, loving man of God! Hallelujah! Jesus reigns forever! Glory be to God!
If only god judged people by the praise they get in the YouTube comments, then Ravi would be a saint already.
Great Servant of God.

Love Ravi, GOD bless his sweet wife and children.
Can I translate his messages to my language for teaching purposes and will reference him?
Who is the other speaker in the Q & A, I didn't get it from the introduction?
Today I have been well directed and helped to understand God's Word better and apply it to life today. Thank you for sharing all this.
A man who fearlessly stood for God , God is Truth. John 14:6. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and Life. No one goes to the Father ( God) except through Him (Jesus).
I have a few words of encouragement in the midst of what's going on. It might sound wierd, but it is for real and I thought that it would be important to say it.
Its long because I've tried to and any faqs!
Hopefully this will answer some of those nagging questions –
Why can't evil be forgiven and let off, how is the whole "Jesus dying" thing really relevant to anything?
To you? if you still have any questions let me know x
Do you ever struggle? Or doubt that God Loves You After what you've done? Do you wonder if He even exists for that matter? Read this:
Every one of us have lied, stolen (even tiny things count as stealing), spoken badly to our parents and had embarrassing and detestable thoughts in our thought life. The Bible calls this "sin", the breaking of God's laws. You might think, so what? Everyone lies and thinks bad things about others! Its human!
You're right. That's exactly what the Bible says, we're "born into sin" and that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" – Romans 3:23
What is that "glory", morally speaking?
Well, the opposite of human nature and desires.
Not lying, not stealing, and having a perfect thought life is God's standard for us.
But if its God's standard and we were made in "God's image", Why don't we meet it?
Well, Remember Adam and Eve and when they sinned. Before sin they were perfect in thought word and DEED completely, but after the first sin occured due to Satan's tempting in the Garden, it destroyed that part of us that was morally perfect and in perfect harmony with God's morals, standard, and love. So while we kept certain things, the ability to be thinking individuals with unique personalities, the moral part (affecting how our thoughts, actions and personalities operate) was damaged. To the point where we are "opposed" to God, hence His nature and standards being the opposite of what we see as reasonable or possible. The Bible even makes it clear that "apart from God you can do nothing" – John 15:5. Without Him, it will 100% feel "opposite", unreasonable and alien to us. Only WITH Him can we gain victory in these things.
Why doesn't God just let sin off and leave it?
The Bible describes God as a "righteous judge", many wonder why God doesn't just let sin off and leave it, but He can't. Why? That's like a if a judge let off a
murderer who broke the state law. Everyone would attack that judge and call Him corrupt, saying that he had not done right and should be fired for failing to punish the murderer for his evil. AND to completely love and be good as God is, means you need to, in turn, hate all forms of evil. You can't truly love good unless you hate the existence of evil.
This means that God needed, as a righteous judge to punish sin with the ultimate penalty of death – expressing His hatred of evil – and separation from His presence forever. Hence Hell.
"The soul that sins shall die (in Hell and suffer damnation)" – Ezekiel 18:20
But God, who is also love, did not want to see His creation tortured and cut off from Him. He cares so much for is that He couldn't bear to see us fall into Satans hands and suffer death, even though we broke the law and deserve to bear the guilt, pain and be cut off from perfection forever through damnation.
Because of justice, God could not leave sin and evil unpunished, BUT because of LOVE, God provided someone else to take that punishment on our behalf, satisfying both justice (by punishing the evil committed), and love (by sparing OUR lives) despite our sin.
God sent His own SON – think about that. His *Son*, the one whom He loved infinitely (the same way He loves us).
God allowed Him to take the pain we deserved, He took ALL of Gods wrath for every single sin you and I have committed. He was punished brutally and completely as if He was the picture of mankind's sin itself so that we do not have to be punished.
Back in the courtroom scenario: He paid the "fine" at His own expense (His life had to be morally perfect on this Earth, then He had to be killed as a sinless sacrifice on our behalf).
So when He returns to remove all evil from the face of the Earth, we can be spared and free because Christ has already BEEN punished on our behalf. He then rose again on the third day, conquering not only life and sin and temptation, but DEATH.
"I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live (immortally and eternally in Heaven when I return)" – John 11:25,26
ALL we have to do is accept it by faith. Faith alone in Christ alone.
Religion = rules to be saved
The gospel = Christ saved us already we just have to believe it by faith. If you lack faith (as I did before), pray. He will make it strong it time. Trust Him as you would trust those close to you. He knows you even better than that. He created you and knows you inside out.
…WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
What does it actually mean for us?
It means we can be completely free from the penalty of damnation.
Not only that but we can be restored to Him and recreated into His moral image AGAIN as long as we accept Jesus having paid the price for us and accept Him as our Lord, the one who is in the front seat of our lives. He has a plan for your life, He's created you for a purpose. Just remember that. A purpose that includes being recreated into His image, one you can only accomplish through Him and reliance on His power and by following HIS way of life.
What does this new way of life entail?
It entails love, true love and service and aid to others, to "love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength" and "love your neighbour as you love yourself" Matthew 22:37, 39.
Sharing the message of Christ's death, resurrection and soon return on this Earth to give justice OR mercy depending on what the person chose.
Sound "opposite" again?
God knows it sounds opposite, which is why, as The Bible states, this is NOT something we can do alone. It's not in our nature.
We need a new nature in the front seat, and the first step is to repent (turn from and reject our sin, pursuing the opposite direction and drawing close to God)
Christ will give us an actual DESIRE to do these things. Through the Holy Spirit, sent by Him to us after the ascension. He speaks to us through thoughts of love and truth and conviction, verses, ideas, prayers and He guides us so that we gain a desire to follow God and be able to do these "opposite" things through Him.
"With man it is impossible, but with God, NOTHING is impossible!" – Matthew 19:26
What is the way FOR though?
Firstly its to save you from sin – the only way to gain victory over sin and not have it as your master is through having Christ as your master and following His aid to resist the devil's temptations.
Christ lived down here for 33 years suffering EVERY FORM of temptation that you have ever faced – "who in every respect [has] been tempted as we are, yet without sin" Hebrews 4:15.
Therefore He is able to help us through our struggles. When the devil knows people have left his camp, he always tries harder with more temptations and evil attacks. BUT – His way is also there to guard and teach you daily in the midst of this (and despite this) sinful, selfish world.
The path He wants you to walk is a path of committment and love – its not about rules and regulations to save us – what Christ did GAVE us salvation.
All we need is faith.
The rest, the "fruits of good works (the will to obey and follow Him)", are what come through true, maturing faith. It's all about faith and the relationship God wants with you just like before sin arrived.
God preferred His own Son to be tortured And killed to give a chance to us (who broke His law of perfection) so that we can live as His children again. He wants us to love and trust and worship Him.
What if I still find myself sinning after I have accepted Christ?
That's why Christ died, For our sin. His death doesn't fix us in a snap like that, but it does protect us from the damnation that our past, present and future sins would bring without Jesus.
It's a process – a lifelong process – of God bringing you back to Him, away from the destructive pleasures of sin (greed, selfish temptations, trampling on people to gain). This process takes a *lifetime*, as it does for all, but NEVER give up, when you fall, know Christ paid for that sin you committed already – just acknowledge your sin and ask for forgiveness – and you can get back up again because He already bore your guilt and shame.
Regardless of the darkness you are in or the extent or frequency of the sins you have committed or will commit, regardless of how doubtful you may feel, know that Jesus UNDERSTANDS completely and He is faithful.
"those who come to Me, I will by no means cast out" – John 6:37
…HOW DO I LEARN MORE?
Don't know where to start?
Note down the Gospel of "John", or "Luke" (if you want a more detailed account of it all).
Remember that He will "NEVER – and that means never – leave you, NOR forsake you" – Deuteronomy 31:6
Regardless of what goes on down here, God knows,
Jesus has been down here and felt all the emotions you are feeling.
You can go to Him with them and be assured that He loves you and is for you.
Even in the storm, God is still there, walking on the water alongside you!
Keep your heart open to Him and remember that if we pray for Christ to enter our lives, He will.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotten Son, that whomever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life". – John 3:16
Thanks for reading if you did. I just felt that I should tell you regardless.
Let me know if you have any more questions or if you need any clarification on anything. xx

Did the Bible seem logical and can we actually understand it? The Bible is a mystery and written in the language of the kingdom of heaven that must be interpreted with the Bible. But most churches take the Bible only at the human level, picking out a verse and mixing moral lessons and philosophy into their sermons. Now, all sermons preaching lies differing from the Bible must be abolished! Hear what the Spirit says to the churches and turn from all lawlessness!!!!
Missing you Ravi…it's so sad we can't see you next year in our yearly IDC..
The pure evil of Hitler and his minions is just too much to contemplate! A true beast he was… an antichrist of the highest order… yet he was just a foreshadow of what is coming on the entire world… Two thirds of humanity will die in the Great Tribulation
Obama tried to throw out the Conscience Law.
The spirit lead me here
These teaching should be translated to Hindi language so that millions of North Indian believers come to the knowledge of truth
Ravi’s answer on the Catholicism question was so brilliant and so beautiful.
“How a surgeon, an intellectual, an intelligent man, could’ve done what he did to these little children, defies an imagination”.
This is how I feel when I look upon the Family Court judges in LV, NV. Astonishingly sickening. Leaves a person speechless.
Its too bad , or maybe good for him that he did not get to see the insanity in America since the pandemic. It would be nice to have him here and give us intelligent answers.
I know the world has bigger questions, but when my 21yr old son was killed in traffic accident years ago I had questions. But God is good and who am I to question Him
Ravi… you are an amazing man of God… it is such a joy listening to you… as an ex-Hindu and a new Christian… you inspire me more and more… you have strengthened my faith in Christ Jesus to an all time high… your using of scripture and the word of God… is so reassuring and exemplary… even in your absence… your sermons are so heartfelt… your legacy will live on for a long time to come… now Ravi Zacharias… as a disciple of Jesus…speaking to the multitudes… all around the globe… and for your good work on Earth… i now give you my own personal rating as follows: ten points out of ten 10/10 well done Ravi… all honour and glory to Jesus.
Thank u,I m dead,with out faith ,in God,I have not seen,what this man ,has seen and Minister,too,by the grace of God,here is Walter Martin,in this u find,we r like prophet hosea.chriist buys us back,I m moved,to return again to my father's work,God alone is my redemption.the voice written by Susan Walker,I may order. Copies,thru famous poets,publishing ,talent Oregon,p.o.box 21. Here is the poem,The Voice ,He was not is the wind,He was thunder,He was not in earth quake,but in the still same voice,that resonates in each one of us,be still and know,he is inside of each of us, corrections ,still small voice,instead is same,God bless u,1 kings 19
Sorry Ravi, but you probably found this by now. Jesus indeed reduced the 613 commandments to ONE! (min. 60). Whoever's concerned, will find this one, three times, in the gospel of John. John 13:34-35, 15:12, 15:17. Understanding this, will make christianity what was supposed to be from the very beginning!
Pharisees were the ones who reduced the law to two commandments! See Luke 10:27.
God bless you all!
Does anyone know where his quote about African missions can be found? I'd like to read the whole thing.
FREE WILL..LOOK AT HEZEKIAH..GOD'S PERFECT PLAN FOR HEZEKIAH WAS TO DIE OF HIS SICKNESS TO SPARE ISRAEL FROM MANASSEH REIGN OF 55Y OF IDOLATRY?
HE TURNED HIS FACE TOWARDS THE WALL…HE WAS GIVEN 15Y ADDED WITH THE GREATEST MIRACLE IN THE BIBLE..YHWH CHANGED IT TO ALLOWABLE WILL FOR HEZEKIAH …ACCEPTABLE..
Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
SEEKING TRUTH YOU CAN ONLY DEPEND ON THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!
Joh 7:15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
Joh 7:16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
Joh 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
Joh 7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
Joh 16:12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
Joh 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
Joh 16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Joh 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Don't i wish i knew this man. Listening to him is sooo relaxing. Such and Intelligent man.
Love you Ravi and Dr. Nabeel Quereshi! So happy you are both now with the LORD Jesus, who you lived your life to Glorify and make an apologetic stand for.
I'm So excited that you are now part of that "great cloud of witnesses" Hebrews 12:1- that is spurring us on to "throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles and run with perseverance the race marked out for us"– like you did Ravi.
I've only been abiding in Him and His Word abiding in me, now-
for a little more than 1 year-so it may take awhile before I bear much fruit, and show myself to be His disciple-as you were clearly, Ravi and Nabeel, as well– but I Pray in Jesus Name, that the Son May bring Glory to the Father for the remainder of my Second year in Christ and on into and through 2021, for the rest of my life. (John 14:13-14, 15:7-8).I know I'll need to turn to your sermons and other talks and apologetic offerings– often, to aide in being "transformed by the renewing of my mind" in Christ Jesus, as it says in Romans 12:2 — Then I "will be able to test and approve what God's will is– His Good, Pleasing and Perfect Will".
Thru sermons like yours, and apologetic responses like Naberl's, that bring us straight to the cross– and keep our minds on the eternal and not the temporal, even as our bodies continue to waste away (2Cor 4:16-18) — thru remembered leaders like you two, who have spoken the Word of God so clearly to us and as we are mindful of the outcome of your way of life, and imitate your faith-(Hebrews 13:7)-I know I have a better chance at becoming as "Others, like seed sown on good soil, (who) hear the Word, accept it, and produce a crop– Thirty, Sixty or even One Hundred times what was sown." Mark 4:20
Long Live Ravi Zacharias International Ministries and may they always stay true to the Gospel, with All Glory to our Great Triune God!
