Can't expect God to do all the work

baste

brb registering democrat

well that's what she says she wants to do lmao

AOC is retarded lmao

Alright I've made my decision. If someone can explain to me 1 Timothy 4:1-4, then I might turn to the Catholic church. If someone can dm me a reputable source on Apostolic Succession, I will turn to the Catholic Church.

It'll hurt me to the core because I have loved ones in the Church of Christ.

**1 Timothy 4:1-4 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**

```Dust
False Asceticism

<1> Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will renounce the faith by paying attention to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, <2> through the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared with a hot iron. <3> They forbid marriage and demand abstinence from foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. <4> For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, provided it is received with thanksgiving; ```

Catholics forbid marriage to priests (Sure, you choose to be a priest but if you choose to be a priest you're still forbidden to marry.)

I imagine abstinance from certain foods refers to Islam, and other heresies.

Would prefer dm's.

hello

I'll take care of it

Notice he said "they forbid marriage AND demand abstinence from certain foods"

About the only things Catholics can't eat are people and shit

Yeah

>imagine eating shit

Anyway

So Jews then?

I only want catholics speaking

Read the canons of the ecumenical council's, there's a lot you'd think they wouldn't have to make rules about.

Even the OT shows that. Whoever has sex with an animal must be put to death

You would think God wouldn't have to actually tell people these things

Covered in sexual immorality.

And also, no one who has been emasculated by crushing can enter the assembly of the Lord

Laws are generally reactive and only made because someone already did it

Also, for whoever was asking, Paul makes it clear that each woman will have her own husband, and each man his own wife. The key word here is *each* and the language is using singular nouns, so this defines monogamy.

So apparently having sex with animals, and crushing your own balls until they were gone were a significant enough problem that God saw fit to make it part of the Bible

antiquity was lit af

@Deleted User that's not still law is it?

There's nothing that is "still" law

Wtf Remus

Yes you are still forbidden to have sex with animals

The Law of Moses outlined moral precepts as well as ceremonial rules

the latter has been abrogated

while the former adapted to fit the new Covenant

Rag no I meant crushing balls

that goes against the teaching of not unnecessarily amputating or maiming yourself
