New Video Out Now! Christianity Doesn't Teach "Pay or Burn"

One common criticism is that Christianity teaches a "pay or burn forever" message. But that isn't what the gospel teaches. According to the New Testament, salvation is a free gift of God's grace, not something that can be purchased with money, earned by good works, or bought through donations to a church. The gospel teaches that every person has sinned, that Christ died and rose again, and that forgiveness is received by repenting and placing your faith in Jesus Christ. In this clip, I respond to the claim that Christianity is built on financial manipulation and explain what the Bible actually says. 🎥 My new video is out now!
