If I can respect someone's choice to be atheist, then they can respect my right to be a Christian. It's not a one way deal.

I’m probably a closet Lutheran, because I’ve discovered two incredible YouTube channels that taught me that not all Lutherans are ELCA:
🅰️ The Lutheran Satire, which makes hilarious videos teaching the faith through odd animations and characters
🅱️ Fighting for the Faith, which critiques bad Christian teachings from a Biblical perspective, with a dose of fun along the way

To be honest, I believe most people would be Lutheran if they went and actually researched what the catholics did during the 30 years war.

I was mostly just surprised that “Lutheran” isn’t synonymous with “lesbian trans pastors”.

One channel I'll watch every now and then is Superbook. It's a pretty interesting way of teaching the Bible. It's about two kids and a robot that travel back in time to whatever Biblical event the episode is about.

@Way2Savage4You

what is a preist supposed to do if somebody confesses something illegal?

Well, depends on what they did that was illegal.

Probably help them confess then call the cops I'd imagine

Nah they dont call the cops

Priests arent mandated reporters

and as far as theyre concerned, having confessed to God and sought repentance is a greater turn around in ones life than prison would provide

interesting.

God bless yall

My pastor dispells the progressive notions with biblical accuracy

> what is a preist supposed to do if somebody confesses something illegal?
@DrStrange77 they don't tell anyone, no matter what it is, because of the Seal of Confession, which prevents them from saying anything that someone confesses to them

My uncle has lung cancer, so, can people please pray for him

Hi guys,
What’s the general thinking around here. Do Christians believe the words of Jesus that “we do not wrestle against flesh and blood” and what’s going on in the world right now is part of the end days?
I’m surprised at how many believers think the devil is going to come out openly and say “here I am”
Jesus said evil disguises Itself as as angel of light and to NOT be deceived.
.....
Here’s my take, it’s possible TO be deceived that’s why Jesus warned against it.

I believe we are nearing the end times, but have not yet entered the 7-year tribulation period. The Anti-Christ will appear at the beginning of the tribulation, being widely loved, and be almost as a "savior" to the world. But then later on in the tribulation, he will declare himself as god or like god, and be in the 3rd temple (that is not yet made, however they're almost all set to start building it). This is when the mark of the beast comes in, where anyone who does not accept the mark and 'worship' it's image, will not be able to buy or sell. Any Christians during this time will likely face death for their faith.
Although, I believe the rapture *(where all those who have died and those still alive in Christ, which are those that are saved, will be taken up into the clouds and Heaven to meet Jesus)* will take place either at the start of the tribulation, or be one of the final blows to the world which allows the Anti-Christ to come onto the world stage and make "peace" from the resulting chaos, therefore starting the 7-year tribulation.

How many of y’all got that BUSSY 😩👅💦

@HR I personally do believe we are in the end days. A lot of the book of Revelation is coming to fruition right now. But I do not think it will happen for a long time. Even if it did happen tomorrow, all of the Christians would be dead by the time it does happen because of the Rapture. Then there will be the 7 Year Tribulation, where anyone who did not believe is given a second chance. Then the False Prophet and the Anti-Christ will come. They will convince everyone that Satan is God. The Anti-Christ is the satanic Christ. The False Prophet will be the ultimate deceiver.

I'm an atheist, I would appreciate it if someone could explain what Christianity is about

Okay, I'm going to try my best based off of what I know. So, Christianity is all about the life and death of Jesus. That he is the Son of God, and that he died for your sins, and was resurrected on the third day. And that they only way to Heaven, is through him.

I think the first step as an atheist would be to realize that you did not come from nothing. Please if someone would explain how there was nothing and it went bang and now we have intelligent life that would be great.

First you must realize that there was an omnipresent God that created everything. That he took 6 days to make it, and took the 7th to rest.

When one looks at a beautiful painting you don’t say “wow look what came about randomly all by itself after billions of years”
Even a child would know this to be willful ignorance

People are infinitely more wonderful and complex than any painting could ever be

You also would need to reject evolution, because the Bible says that it never happened.
