@ventuz If I can use science to prove that God is real, will you stop being cringe?

<@&588707615643795456> Daily Question 🔖

-Do “Good Samaritans” go to heaven or hell, or perhaps someplace else, or maybe nowhere at all?

Heaven. Hell is reserved only for those who deny the God, Jesus and the holy ghost.

depends

what if you accept them but are a sodomite?

I don't know which denomination he is. Lutheran would say he goes to heaven

The act of continuing sodomy means you're also rejecting god lol

"I consider getting cock up my ass more important than eternal life"

God will deliberate with mercy, but it is impossible to reach heaven without christ, and one does not accept christ without reflecting it via his works

Samaritans?

Like people who commited suicide?

Samaratins were an actual group of people though, perhaps it's worth considering the relationship between the Jewish people and Samaria to understand the parable

Depends if the Good Samaritan was in mortal sin at the time of their death

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samaria

Oh I got it wrong kms

It's a different ethnoreligious group similar to Judaism that would have existed in modern day Palestine

The Jews and Samaritans didn't really get along. In spite of that, the Samaritan helped the fallen jew.

The question is asking if ethnic/ religious adversaries who show mercy upon you are deserving of salvation.

Showing mercy upon someone one time doesn't grant you a free pass

Why show mercy at all then

It depends entirely on the rest of your life, whether you committed mortal sin, whether you were Baptised, etc.

what does being baptised grant you

Grace

There are gnostic denominations like the Manadeans that also practice baptism, does that give them Grace?

They call it Baptism, that does not make it so

Baptism can only be performed by the Catholic Church

The Manadeans consider John the Baptist a prophet, it's not like they're not Christian

There is only one Christian Church, the one founded by Jesus on the rock of Peter

What beliefs do Samatarians hold?

Samaritanism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samaritanism

They believe themselves to be the original jews essentially.

@ComradeChaos but still continue holding their beliefs regarding Torah, Yehva and other Jewish aspects?
