Yeah, that's not in line with Orthodox theology

2019-12-05 22:16:13 UTC  

Explain..

2019-12-05 22:17:13 UTC  

Theological autism is not my forte. All I know CI is we wuz kangz for anglos

2019-12-05 22:17:57 UTC  

Replacement theology is not specific to Baptism if you were to have that belief

2019-12-05 22:21:32 UTC  

What does that even mean

2019-12-05 22:23:19 UTC  

How does baptism factor into it

2019-12-05 22:23:51 UTC  

Well I see Baptist churches talk about it most, but you said it aint compatible with Orthodoxy

2019-12-05 22:23:59 UTC  

@Lieutenant Phys everyone who believes is God’s chosen people

2019-12-05 22:24:07 UTC  

Yup

2019-12-05 22:24:14 UTC  

That is essentialy Christian identity

2019-12-05 22:24:23 UTC  

whether Chinese, Europæan, MENA, or Subsaharan

2019-12-05 22:24:34 UTC  

We that believe in the lord are god's chosen people

2019-12-05 22:24:46 UTC  

We are __spiritually__ Israel

2019-12-05 22:25:01 UTC  

but what Christian Identity people tend to promote is ‘White people’ as God’s chosen people

2019-12-05 22:25:09 UTC  

Okay. Then why the autistic "Identity" cling-on?

2019-12-05 22:25:29 UTC  

my Christian identity was given to me in baptism

2019-12-05 22:25:38 UTC  

and my parents rejoiced

2019-12-05 22:25:38 UTC

2019-12-05 22:25:56 UTC  

yeah, that’s not a religious tradition

2019-12-05 22:26:18 UTC  

It's a belief not a tradition, never stated it as one

2019-12-05 22:26:26 UTC  

then it’s not an affiliation

2019-12-05 22:26:38 UTC  

because affiliation has to do with sonship, from Latin *filius*

2019-12-05 22:26:48 UTC  

Whatever

2019-12-05 22:26:56 UTC  

it’s about the tradition in which you count yourself a son of the Church

2019-12-05 22:27:19 UTC  

Son of god you mean

2019-12-05 22:27:35 UTC  

We are god's children

2019-12-05 22:27:38 UTC  

both, as St Cyprian says and John Calvin also affirms

2019-12-05 22:28:31 UTC  

‘He can no longer have God for his Father, who has not the Church for his mother.’

2019-12-05 22:29:20 UTC  

What if the Church turns for the devil like what we see with Catholic churches, and eventually even deny Jesus as their messiah?

2019-12-05 22:29:47 UTC  

Would it even be a church anymore?

2019-12-05 22:30:13 UTC  

then it ceases to proclaim the word of God and administer the sacraments duly

2019-12-05 22:30:30 UTC  

such a diseased member is to be cut off

2019-12-05 22:30:39 UTC  

lest its gangrene take over the whole

2019-12-05 22:31:29 UTC  

but at all times ‘there is no health in us’ – that is, in ourselves

2019-12-05 22:31:37 UTC  

for Christ alone is the source of health

2019-12-05 22:32:17 UTC  

It's alike a plague when this gangrene grows from Church to Church turning into heresy more than god's truth and fact

2019-12-05 22:32:49 UTC  

God's word is to be followed

2019-12-05 22:33:27 UTC  

But those that misidentify his own rulebook and use it for their benefit in negative fashion I agree should be cut off

2019-12-05 22:35:08 UTC  

They are sinners, they go out of their way, breaking moral boundaries and spreading a type of toxic moral relatavist ideas that slowly kills Christianity as a whole.

2019-12-05 22:36:18 UTC  

so where, concretely, do you partake of Christ’s body?
