So someone is sent back in time to realise being sent back in time wouldn't fix anything, since he needs to repent more fundamentally of something else?

That, and second, that the fact that God allows our fall in certain cases to teach us is a greater mercy for all mankind, and also the fact that people who do not repent stay condemned is also mercy as it would be no fair either, as each one of our choices matters, a God who would avoid us to make these choices or that does not let the consecuence of those choices to unleash, it's unmerciful, as it would mean he does not care.

It's also meant to eliminate the conception of God as some mystical mage in heaven who sould protect us because people misunderstand what his love is.

So it's a novel but it has a lesson in the end.

Several, and i'm trying to be careful on how to say them.

Most of these i have learn them from learning theology, so they aren't really my idea, i just want to convey those in a story, where they can have a name and a last name, like a parable if you want.

Also, the fact of people misunderstaing God's mercy leads to the mispractice in our society.

When christ appears before me

I'm going to have a panic attack

Because of all the sins i commit

😔

tfw

We're not even there yet and i'm already ashamed of my sins before God tbh.

I'm just worried I won't pass through the tollhouses because I keep forgetting to pray before meals

Don't you mean the tollhouses?

Because if i'm not mistaking they aren't really a dogma.
and i have seen this vid on that.

Tbh Who cares though.

If you live a least sinful life as you possibly can and repent for any sins you happen to commit and live a righteous life. I don't see a problem with it.

Yes, you can and you can always do alms, and hope others pray for you. God is merciful.

Tollhouses are 'dogma' inasmuch as every church father that mentions them, reaches them. When the Fathers agree, you'd best believe it

I think i'd have to see that for my self to know if they actually mean the concept of tollhouses.

I'd find them conflicting as what the guy in the video says is very convincing.

Bible Illustrated is a bit of a modernist

@Byzas Which is sad because a lot of his work is great

You want the real cold hard facts with no apologies, you go to Jay Dyer

Here is an *actual* authority on Orthodoxy talking about them

JAY DYER IS AN AUTHORITY

REEE

I was typing before you mentioned him. But he himself hasn't really studied the tollhouses

Jay Dyer is brilliant but he's a layman

We wuz laid back men
