I don’t know I’ve always had low expectations
😂😂
the moment i looked in the mirror at myself was when i started
That’s true.
I’m going to college soon enough.
i'll do that after my first contract with the navy is over
College is fun
It’s stressful
But the freedom is great
Especially if you’re dorming
good to know I'm going to go for pastoral ministries so i can be a youth pastor at my church back home
Congrats!
How long are you going to be in Ministry?
until retirement hopefully
You are a true man of God
Hey guys what's up
Thinking about reforming the knights templar
Hey @americanaf I saw this debate saying that suicide is a sin in the Christian religion and some say it's not. What's your view on that
It’s a sin, though not a mortal one if someone does it while not being in the right mind set.
So even if that person was a good man or religious does that mean hell for him?
Tattoos, circumcision, and some other things also.
It’s mutilation. You alter or permanently destroy what God has made.
But if someone wasn’t in the right mind set (ie. Mental illness) they can be forgiven and enter heaven with purgatory or whatever other sort of place of cleansing you believe in. Toll houses, perhaps.
Alright
okay but where in the bible does it say that one sin is worse than another?
When they started ranking them
The Ten Commandments
that doesn't say what sin is worse than others at all
In a way it does
thats up to interpretation though.
Generally speaking, the gravity of a sin determined the gravity of the punishment. So yes, there was obviously an understanding murder and adultery were worse than let’s say some white lie.
And, of course, Christ himself discussed particular sins with more gravity. Like scandal.
**”It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones." -Luke 17:2**
but in God's eyes sin is sin it doesn't matter what sin it was. there's a reason why Christ died on the cross. it was to forgive all sins of those who repented and asked for forgiveness, not just the "small sins"
I had a cousin way back this was before I was born he committed suicide
This citation can be interpreted in different ways, but in general it refers to either misleading children (scandal) or pedophilia, both being opposed clearly by Christianity.
No one knows why
Or even think of a reason he would do it
off topic but who else thinks the 2018 Predator movie was the worst one of all 4 of them
