@GHOST it means that bishops in that church are legitimate successors to the apostles

If it doesn't hurt us in those ways it hurts society and turns society into a place with no real morals

@Phil With Frankincense oh okay

Sin either a. Hurts us or b. Hurts others

Do you use porn?

Where in the bible does it say masturbation is a sin?

Some Christians believe the act of masturbation is a sin, i don't really believe that

It doesn't @⍟luminance

It does tho

Leviticus or Deuteronomy

People use that ome example of spilling seed

Dude jacks off and fucking dies

Also it’s adultery usually

Or lustful

**Matthew 5:28 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**

```Dust


<28> But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. ```

But remember he didn't die because he didn't impregnate his brothers wife but because he disobeyed God

Which is what all sin is

Disobeying God

Why do these narcissistic idiots all think that God's morality has to align with theirs or make sense to them?

He makes the rules, he doesn't care what you think is moral or not

If you don't use porn or have lustful thoughts masturbation is still a gray area

Right because you get to decide

Not the person who's literally God and knows more than you could ever comprehend

@⍟luminance thats my exact belief God is God who are we to question him ?

Sola scriptura is a formal heresy iirc

If not it’s formally condemned by the very *existence of the magisterium*

Because he says you can't and if you do you burn in fire for eternity welcome to reality

Have fun in the fire

Life isn't fair

There is objective morality because there is a God who have men rules of what is right and wrong

All records of people in the area and time period agree Jesus was not a normal human being

The Jews just thought he was a sorcerer

No one is made perfect except jesus who came from God and Mary

You’re one of those science only loser aren’t you

Nope

False

Heresy

Christ wasn’t made

We all deserve hell i deserve hell because i was not able to keep God's law

Historians agree he existed it's only a matter of if he was divine or not but read the texts from even the people who despised him

Mary was the one made immaculately
