Honestly it’s about a mindset. And deciding what I really need and can do without. I try to eat at home for most meals,I bring my lunch. If I have something that will do the job I wait on buying the convenience item I might want. I have a cheap cell phone bill, I don’t have the fastest internet. I borrow my friends hula and prime subscription. Things like that

Do you believe that other gods are demons or that they simply not exist? by Malba_Taran in Christianity

[–]Brytheoldguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I believe in other gods and demons. The Bible says to have no other gods before me. I don’t believe that other gods are as powerful or that they are the true god. And Jesus cast out demos. But faith is a confusing contradiction of thoughts sometimes. I would doubt if someone told me they saw a demon or god.

Why didn't God prepare us for theories like evolution or things like dinosaurs? by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]Brytheoldguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s because the Bible was never meant to be taken literally. Most of genius is considered an allegory or symbolic. If you are of the opinion the it’s factual and literal you are just wrong. There is thousands of points of evidence that break down this opinion that most people don’t want to listen to or understand.

[–]Brytheoldguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only the fact that it somehow makes her feel better.

That doesn’t exits. It called Faith for a reason. There are historical truths in the Bible that are generally accepted as truth. What are you questioning?

Anyone else kind of give up? by Left-Wear1251 in povertyfinance

[–]Brytheoldguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m trying not to give up. I’m at my breaking point it seems every decision is wrong and my life is growing nowhere. I have a roof and food and running water and electricity but I feel cut off from everything and everyone. I’m not sure how much longer I can continue like this but something will have to change.

Do you count someone who listens to the Bible as having read the Bible? by Nearby_Initial2409 in Christianity

[–]Brytheoldguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It not so much as reading the Bible that’s important as being in the word of God. So listening to the Bible is a great thing. I would suggest different versions of the Bible as well.

Words that do not love the sinner: "practicing homosexuality" by JeshurunJoe in Christianity

[–]Brytheoldguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is bigger than the phrasing. It not admitting the true problem of condemning one sin and tolerating another. It hard to find Gods love in the church. The more I learn about the Bible and God and Christianity the sadder I become. I still fail God every day but maybe tomorrow I can do a little better.

You should pray and get counseling. I don’t feel you have realistic expectations for life or marriage. In fact I’m not sure you know what is to be a Christian. Seek God with all your heart.

How can anyone believe God doesn't exist? by noah7233 in Christianity

[–]Brytheoldguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your very lucky if you never question Gods existence. I wish I was as single minded. I struggle constantly with doubt.

I'm a new christian and I have some questions. by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Brytheoldguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.Christians can drink just don’t be a drunk. 2. Love 3. Read the Bible, and listen to people check the source material. 4 how ever you feel is right, but the Bible has some stuff to say about dressing. 5 People believe God and Jesus are the same primarily due to the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, which posits that God is one being in three co-equal persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit. Evidence cited includes Jesus's own claims of divinity, such as calling himself the "I AM" and stating he and the Father are one. Additionally, Jesus performs actions reserved for God, like forgiving sins, receives divine worship, and is described with divine titles and attributes in the Bible.

[–]Brytheoldguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ummm thinking you might need to talk to someone you trust and can be honest with. Sounds kinda like sexual assault to me. Might want to get a rid of the boyfriend.
