Interesting
It's the nature of gematria to start to see patterns in the words and phrasees that correlate but some of these are pretty interesting
Ur possessed by demons
Maybe, but the correlations are self evidently real.
The phrases clearly make sense together.
I'm looking to be a shepherd of wolves more than sheep anyways: they're much less likely to get chewed up and spit out than a sheep would be
<@&588707615643795456> Daily Questionโ๏ธ
- Should extra-biblical texts be considered? That is other works not included in the Bible and/or canon. Example would be the book of Enoch or Jasher. Should they be tossed out? Examined? Believed? This also doesnโt just apply to Christianity but other religions.
I don't see any benefit to not knowing what's in a book
probably for greater context, sure
The bible is not the sole authority on christianity
Donno about that statement
The Dead Sea scrolls tho
To an extent god is the ultimate authority
Donno about those
How can the bible be the sole authority, it was compiled by 12 men
The church is an authority
No.
Simple as.
Also no
Ultimately, you are your the authority in determining what is true.
The church is based on the Bible
Don't determine it wrong.
The trinity isnt mentioned in the bible, yet the church preaches it as fact
Trinity as in the connections?
God is said to be life, light and love in passages within the bible. That is a trinity of sorts
Yes but it is never explicitly described as the trinity, because it was agreed upon by churchmen
God is not just the trinity but the trinity is God.
Well yes
As a method of understanding the holy spirit
The trinity is derived from understanding the Bible and determining the essence of each element
Jesus declares himself to be the light, making him satisfy one third of the components of God described within the bible
The holy spirit could be life

The trinity makes more sense from the standpoint of kabbalah and the three nothings
That's just trying to turn Christianity into Satanism
God is being, he is not nothing.
"I am", he is in the most simple terms Being
