and the moment something bad happens they will go "How can a good god do such bad things? I dont beleive in him anymore." despite beliving in him in the same way a person beleives in a vending machine.

You’re right, you need so much more than that

They need to implement the readings heard on Sunday into their every day lives. Which is why priests or deacons usually say “Go and announce the Good News of God.” At the very end of mass

Well i mean look at James 1:27. God, first and foremost, wants a relationship with you. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t want you to do good works. Rather, he wants those works to be a result of your faith, instead of works being the entirety of your faith.

thats a great way to put it!

i found an interesting principle while reading my bible and thats that before we are saved we have to follow the 10 commandments, but when we get saved we GET to follow the law. sometimes it feels like some Christians make it sound like the law is bad but technically its the way God wants us to live our lives so it must be the best way to live. just my thoughts on the subject of works in regards to faith

Exactly

God isnt a buzzkill, he has rules for a reason, and he wants us to live our best lives with Him.

yeah, and the rules are good, we just don't see it that way sometimes :/

Yep

So this is an interesting video, basically explains how the jews are not God's chosen people, the Israelites are. (no this does not mean it's okay to hate jews. It's a historical misunderstanding)

(also if I need to move the video, just let me know. I figured it would be best suited here as it pertains to religion and religion history)

Chosen for what?

If my knowledge is correct then it would be his chosen people to bring forth Jesus, but I don't know the lineage of Joseph. I do know he is a son of David though.

Read genealogy of jesus

Bible gives genealogy from Joseph and mary side

yeah, Matthew 1 gives the full genealogy all the way from Adam iirc

Judah is a jew, and Jesus is from the Judah's lineage.

David is a Jew

i'm acctualy fuzzy on where the term Jew came from

can anyone explain?

Tribe of Judah

OH man I love all these people who got pretty big twitter balls going anywhere and everywhere that bothers paying any memory to Rush in their hate mobs.

Problem is they are too stupid to be self aware of the ethical paradox.

But its pretty delicious watching someone say "He said terrible things! He even cheered for the death announcements of people on his program!" While they say terrible things about him, cheering his death announcement.

I love people who play the morality card like a bible thumper while being the very thing "they hate"

thanks that makes sense
