/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

I wonder why OP thinks it's important for him to know who the true Christians are?

Is Op our judge? No.

God is our Judge, and God knows his people from the devil's.

I'm afraid God disagrees with you.

Have you heard the idiom "a wolf in sheep's clothing"?

Did God tell you "'Don't judge people' means you should be a blind fool", or "I'll tell you every time I see a wolf in sheep's clothing"?

If everyone can claim that they are Christians, then Christianity is nothing. Have you heard the term excommunication? Or does this Christian board mostly cater for the expelled?

"Christian" is the one who is like the Christ.

Being like the Christ means that he can apply the Law in the right way, or does walk through the teachings of the OT, applied with a wisdom that comes from the Gods authority.

God made men as his image and likeness, and the Christ was the perfect man, but remember that God didn't gave the Law to Adam.

The ones that follow the path of perfection are the so called "Christians", the Law (Pentateuch) is a good reference for this path, but is a limited reference, the complete one comes from the Holy Ghost inspiration.

Thank you annon.

It's clear what Pentateuch is. But what is the inspiration of God? Could you please tell more?

So Anglicans are just trying to figure out why they exist since their sect was founded by the horny instead of by any theological reasons.They're constantly trying to distinguish themselves from both protestantism and traditional Christianity (especially Catholicism), so different theological movements have been encouraged and suppressed to attain that. In practice it just ends up being general high-church Protestantism but without a point. You see a lot of homos that think the Catholic church is too mean end up there, some people with mostly traditional Christian beliefs that just reject the pope too (too retarded to look to Orthodoxy). Sometimes it looks like so called 'old / independent catholicism'. You might see some high-church inclined protestants that don't like Lutheran or Calvinist particulars. If the only protestant conviction a man has is sola scriptora, and they aren't even too radical about that, they might end up here. They are probably the most interesting protestants to me because they often claim to adhere to apostolic tradition and hold apostolic succession (really the things that separate protestants from the rest), but it is held as an auxiliary source of authority with scripture really being primary for Anglicans. Also, i don't think any traditional Christian church recognizes their line of succession. You have a range from fairly low-church and homo-loving, women-'ordaining' Anglicans to the anglo-catholics, some of which have even looked for union with rome in recent decades. Some of them have attained it. There is the 'personal ordinariates' in the Catholic Church. Basically very large dioceses that consist of anglican converts and hold certain anglican pratices, included a third anclican use form of the latin rite mass. Anglo-catholicism is part of the 'continuing anglican' movement. These are those more 'conservative' Anglicans that find themselves removed from communion with the archbishop of Canterbury.

What I do know is the bcp is great to use for daily devotion. So I thank their tradition for that. C.S Lewis was an Anglican, and his apologetics are great.

Anglcanism is going extinct lmao cope

The UK is 72% Atheist. Such a degenerate country. winnie the pooh the UK.

Anglican Church was founded by a man who wanted to divorce his wives so he could have a legitimate heir, and the Church said no.

So, he split from the church, stole church property, looted Church coffers, and allowed his soldiers to rape and murder nuns and priests.

It was born in the desire for mortal sin, and was bathed in the blood of martyrs.

Now the head of the Church is claiming she's some sort of Moslem Leader as well.

Same thing happened to me in one church I went to. Went to a Bible study group and had some good discussions then the sermon ended up being some weird storytime without any scripture or direction really.

I asked a friend from the Church afterwards why it was like that and they thought it was to attract more new members by not getting too deep into doctrine and focusing on the message . That made sense to me since I have left a church before for preaching doctrines I didn't agree with.(dispensationalism to an extent of essentially saying Jews didn't need Christ since they are chosen and if you didn't support the nation of Israel you weren't a true Christian)

I disagree with the practice of keeping your beliefs vague to get more members but it seems the most likely explanation.

Never seen that happen. Every mass every day has several Biblical references in the missal.

Thanks for the tip

>So the Vikings were the ethnically mixed "globalist" elite

I wouldn't even give them that title. They were little more than glorified bandits who got their butts kicked whenever they came face to face with people who could fight back.

Hi, please refrain from posting anti-white gaslighting propaganda and pretending it's anti-pagan.

I am reading a book about the Saxons right now and they not only had the death penalty for marrying outsiders but even for marrying someone of a different class.

Of course seafarers would intermingle with other peoples but it has nothing to do with new research.

>reading a book about the Saxons right now and they not only had the death penalty for marrying outsiders but even for marrying someone of a different class.

Ah yes, Christians should definitely model ourselves, our beliefs, and our culture after saxon pagans.

>>856002

Source?

Good people abide by good government, bad people do not. Bad people abide by bad government, good people do not.

I tell you God is the ultimate government, and no man can serve two governments.

>its another schizo using revelations to justify his politics

Revelations 22:18-29

For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

Matthew 24:23

At that time, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.

It's always a little odd how much they love the symbols and motifs of the Church, but little of that is reflected in Japanese life.

The only person I can think of that's associated with anime who is probably a little more sincere about it is Yoko Kanno. She's a prolific composer for a lot of anime. She had Catholic parents and first developed her music training in church. I don't know if she's exactly religious herself, but you can hear the influence in masterpieces like the GitS theme:

Also to add to the cool factor, Origa the singer was Russian and Orthodox. The lyrics are a mix of Russian, Latin, and English.

I think that for most of them Christian religions are just another mythology, like Greek or Egyptian. They don't use it for any kind of deep theological meaning, even when the symbolism is accurate it's just world-building for them rather than any kind of theological relevancy.

>“That is enough,” He answered.

Read it again. That is clearly sarcastic. In the same way we might say "Enough of this [nonsense]" or "I've had enough."

That verse doesn't mean what you think it does.

I don't care why or if I'm hated or not. I hate the world too. And I hate my old self who was also a part of it. I want nothing more than it's destruction. I can't really blame them if they think the same.
