(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) but i hope you'll be more sympathetic for those dear hearts outside that say god is dead god is dead hey guys this is matt powell so i wanted to do a quick video regarding jim jones and there's a lot of people that say that anybody that listens to creationists or anybody that listens to myself have really drunk the kool-aid and they love to use that phrase that our listeners have drank the kool-aid well anybody that makes that statement it just goes to show they haven't actually even done the basic research they don't even understand who they're referencing they're actually referencing somebody jim jones who was a god-hating atheist somebody who hated the bible hated christianity and hated the lord jesus christ admittedly and there are even videos of jim jones admitting that he hated god and that he claimed that god was dead my bishop knows that i'm an atheist i'm an atheist i'm an atheist he he knows that i i recognize only love when i say i'll say god is level you heard my preaching so anybody that says that people have drank the kool-aid by listening to my content just goes to show they don't even understand who they're referencing they don't even understand what they're referencing and they don't understand uh the seriousness of such a claim and they're trying to use an atheist to paint christianity as bad they're using a bad example of an atheist who took a bunch of lives as proof quote unquote that christianity is somehow bad i mean this stuff is bizarre and it just goes to show that these people that make these claims they're unscientific they're illogical irrational and they don't care what the facts are they don't even care what the truth is if they did they would research claims before just throwing out the blanket statements that we've all heard a million times there was a little girl named julie reynolds that was being forced to take she was about 13 i guess and she kept spitting it out and they were forcing her to take it only a few people drank it willingly you would drink it too if they were standing over you with a gun that said you have to drink drink the juice right now you didn't have a choice even my son's ninth grade math teacher said it and my son came home and he said mom she said you know don't drink the kool-aid and i'm thinking why does she not know and she's a teacher why would they not know why people not know this what's really behind that why minimize something like that i'd love to start something that people would understand please please don't take that so lightly people suffered god is dead if he ever was alive that god of the unknown variety is dead well thank you for the feedback because i must say i felt somewhat hypocritical for the last years as i became an atheist i became an atheist i have become you you feel tainted by being in the church situation because everyone knows where i'm at my bishop knows that i'm an atheist i'm an atheist i'm an atheist he he knows that i i recognize only love when i say i say god is love but i hope you'll be more sympathetic for those dear hearts outside that say god is dead god is dead if he ever was alive that god of the unknown variety is dead that's why there should be for a moment as a good john birch leader says that's why there should be for a moment as a good john birch leader said he said he wished that everybody for a moment would wake up to what i've said just for a moment think that there's no god he said then maybe we might do something to help ourselves i am a savior because i save everybody that comes to me but don't call me your creator sky god i would rather you call me the devil because he had the sense to rebel he had the good sense to rebel i then would have nothing to do with god have nothing to do with that sky god have nothing to do with this bible you're going to help yourself and you'll get no help there's only one hope of glory that's within you and i'm showing you the thing within you the revolution in me is showing you the christ revolution and you that's the only hope of doing it there's no hope up there nobody's going to come out of the skies nobody ever come to save us there's no heaven up there we'll have some more the worst enemies we got are preachers the worst enemies we've got is religion and it's churches that's the worst i was a lawyer and attorney for the notorious jim jones jim jones had set up his colony in the forest in guiana they were not christians jim jones did not believe in god it was a cult he was a Satanist indeed he believed in anything he believed in a communist ideology which he proclaimed his last will and testimony leading everything to the soviets bottom line again jim jones was not an atheist if you could show me the proof i'd very much appreciate it
