Dan McClellan Can’t Stop Spreading LIES About Me…

Christians need to get honest about Donald Trump, because he is a fake Christian and an immoral man who uses God’s name in vain to promote himself. And I’m sick and tired of people pretending like he’s a Christian or a good person or something. So in this video, I’m going to say what I think every Christian should be willing to say about our president, because calling out our political leaders is a biblical and even Christ-like thing to do.Hey!

Is “once saved, always saved” a doctrine that Protestants can’t defend? Well, that’s what Catholic Apologist JesusandWhatnot has claimed in a recent video. So today, I’m going to show you how this doctrine can be defended, and how the Bible undeniably teaches it.Hey!

Abortion supporters will often claim that the Bible supports abortion. For example, they’ll say that life begins at the first breath according to Genesis 2:7, meaning that the unborn isn’t actually alive yet. Or they’ll say that killing a child in the womb doesn’t constitute murder in Exodus 21. And most shockingly, pro-choicers will claim that Numbers 5 gives people instructions for how to perform an abortion. But as a pro-life Christian, I’m going to show you why the Bible doesn’t support abortion, and that it very clearly condemns it.Hey!

Most people who reject Sola Scriptura don’t actually know what Sola Scriptura is. And that is the case with Father Paschal Uche, a Catholic Priest in England. He recently posted a video talking about why Catholics reject this doctrine—but he constantly misrepresents it and what Protestants believe. So today, I’m going to break down his video, showing you what we actually believe and why Sola Scriptura is a necessary doctrine that is taught in the Bible.Hey!

Is Mary the mother of God? And if so, then what implications does that title have? Would that mean that she existed before God or that she gave Jesus His deity? Well, as an evangelical Christian, I’m going to explain to you why Mary undeniably is the mother of God—and why it’s heresy to reject that title for her.Hey!

Did the apostles believe that Jesus wasn’t God? Well, that’s what heretic Paul Davis (RealGoodNewsXP) has claimed in a recent video. So today, we’re going to listen to his claims about Jesus and the early Christians, and I’ll show you why he’s wrong about pretty much every single thing he says.Hey!

I recently debated Jacob Hansen, who is widely considered to be the #1 Latter-day Saint apologist. And today, I’m going to break down that debate and why I found Jacob’s arguments for Mormon doctrine to be ultimately unconvincing. I’ll also share a few ways that I messed up, and what I would do differently if I got a second chance.At the time of this recording, it’s been a little over a week since the debate. I’ve had some time to collect my thoughts, review the debate, and think through some better rebuttals that didn’t come to my mind at the time. So I’m gonna break everything down, and then at the end, I’ll answer the question of who I think won the debate.Hey!

Does the Bible teach the Trinity and monotheism? Or was Trinitarianism just a later invention influenced by Hellenism? And is the Trinity a salvation issue? Well, I recently sat down with my friend Braeden (GospelGuardianLDS), to discuss these issues and where Mormons and Protestants agree and disagree. This was not a heated debate, but rather a civilized discussion between two people who do have great disagreements, but also still have respect for each other. So, here's our conversation.
