What about repeating the psalms and scriptures in prayer? Those are not your own words

They are...just saying I got 'skills'; mad skills...LMAO

Nu uh, you said no repeating or it's not genuine

I'm not sure what you mean American. I'm not insulting your faith, I'm just curious, but you have to hold your own argument. We can talk at a later time, brother.

888 what church do you go to? I go to a Church of Christ.

You said "Then it holds no meaning if they aren't genuine words of your own."

There are only 800 common use words in the English language. You are bound to repeat some things. You two shouldn't make this an issues between you because it only has meaning to God

Just pray with whatever is good and true lmao. If a prayer is good, and you don't enter auto mode, then fine.If you kind of enter auto mode, then it could be better, but the intentions are good. If you modify an existing prayer, as long as you don't change anything badly, then there is no problem, and so on

If they aren't genuine it holds no meaning. If you mean by heart the phrases they prayed, pray them.

So there is no problem with scripted prayer

Some risk becoming less genuine, but it's not as if you are being evil

Only if the people praying them don't mean them, but scripted prayer imo can be a dangerous path to just mindless babbling.

What @Mozalbete ⳩ said.

@Iakovos I stopped going to church when the Pastor was sleeping with the people he was counseling and the youth pastor was caught sleeping with the youth. Was enough for me.

F

OOOOOOOF

Lmao in the early Church people would be brought to a jury for that

And much lesser things

Didn't paul rebuke a man who was sleeping with another man's wife?

Repent and cease, and be forgiven.

I was talking with a high level satanist who said that most Churches are utterly infiltrated (I am sure he wasn't 'biased' or anything) but some of the things he said have stuck with me.

Of course they are. There is literally nothing preventing people from putting on a nice smile and infiltrating whatever gorup

Yeah I know...discouraging.

Ragnarok caught a satanist desecrating the Lord's supper.

I think this is our 'failure'.

Too weak, too much mercy.

And many more

888 it is a commandment to eat the Lord's supper and sing praises to God. If you are in the Nashville area, dm me and I can take you to a good church. I am directly connected to the leaders in one.

I'm 20, so don't worry about me trying to hit on you lol

@Iakovos Will think about it. I am afraid I am more influenced by Luther's break from things that are defiled than I care to admit. Almost got thrown out of class last semester for arguing that to join any body or institution is to partake in all the good and evil that institution commits. That didn't go over so well...now I am uber cautious about everything.

My church is simply a congregation.

@Deleted User Ummm ?congratulations? Haha.
