@Deleted User Christianity in Ukraine came when Volodymyr the great baptized the Ruthenian Principality (Київська Русь) Christianity brought Ukrainians together as a people and had its ups and downs, Kyiv was considered the capital of Christianity in the East Slavs up until the late 1500s when the patriarch of Constantinople was bribed by the Tsar of Moscow to make Moscow the capital, which was the beginning of many Orthodox priests in Galicia, Volhynia, Podolia signing the Brest Union with Rome and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, founding the Ruthenian Uniate Church (the predecessor to the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church), during the partitions of Poland, Ukraine was divided between Austria and Russia, Austria upheld the Ruthenian Catholics in its Galicia and built the programs for the rise of the modern Ukrainian-Ruthenian National identity. in Russia, the Tsarist regime did many programs to revert the population to Orthodoxy, after WW1, the rise and fall of the Ukrainian National Republic and the founding of the USSR, the Orthodox Church in Ukraine was used by the Communists to make propaganda, while in Polish-owned Galicia-Volhynia, the UGCC was banned and Greek Catholics were forced into being Roman Catholics, which the locals of Galician Ukraine fought against. in Ukraine now there are three Churches, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, the Russian Orthodox Church and the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, the UOC and UGCC are pro-Ukraine sovereighty, the ROC is pro Russian and all that, and the ROC has schismed with Constantinople over the UOC's new existence.
there is a quick summary, I myself follow the UGCC
Christianity indeed is good for the west
It brings proper moral guidence to the western nations and other Indo-Europeans
whereas previously there was nothing
Such as some form of monotheism
Orthodoxy has only helped Greece
of which my Indo-European side comes from
And will only continue to help Greece thrive
@G a b e גבריאל christianitryt hwlpeed alot in all of Europe, it was the Catholics who vuild institutions for Ukraine and Belarus in the 1500-1700s in the Commonwealth as an example
it was Othodox Knyazs earlier who build cities like Lviv, Halych, Uzhhorod, Chrasky, etc, and build institutes within them

Indeed
Nahum 2:3
**Nahum 2:3 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<3> The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken. ```
Nahum 2:4
**Nahum 2:4 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<4> The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings. ```
The combustion engine prophecied in B.C 713
Nahum 2:4
**Nahum 2:4 - Good News Translation (GNT)**
```Dust
<4> Chariots dash wildly through the streets, rushing back and forth in the city squares. They flash like torches and dart about like lightning. ```
idk about that
Nahum 2:3-4
**Nahum 2:3-4 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<3> The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken. <4> The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings. ```
Pretty sure this pertains to Jerusalem perhaps
It is the description of the destruction of Ninevah.
<@&588707615643795456> Daily Question ✝
- What is the correct position for Christian's to hold on the topic of Jews? What biblical texts speak of the Jews?
Romans 9:1-8
**Romans 9:1-8 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<1> I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, <2> That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. <3> For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: <4> Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; <5> Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. <6> Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: <7> Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. <8> That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. ```
Christians should hold the position of treating Judaism as an enemy of Christianity and as children of Satan
Christians ARE Jews
Wrong
Jews can be Christians but all Christians are God's chosen, not exclusively Jews.
I talk of religious Jews
Not ethnic Jews
Revelation 3:9
**Revelation 3:9 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<9> Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. ```
simple as
@Deleted User Christ disavowed the Jews multiple times
In the early days of the christian roman empire Christians were Jews. Once Christianity took over they outlawed every religion except judaism
