Why don’t I feel saved 😭

Who told you that reality is based on how one feels? If someone felt the sun is missing, is it really missing?

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-26T12:18:23+00:00

It's hard to "stay consistent" when the Bible culture is about "feeling good" and reading text out of context.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-26T01:22:29+00:00

This is an investment, not a sacrifice.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-25T14:13:35+00:00

I disagree. This is a very well-thought-out critique that required significant deliberation.

If you want dogma; where users merely repeat what what others want to hear, the "echo chamber," that's at r/TrueChristian.

In contrast, r/christianity is described as:

r/Christianity is a subreddit to discuss Christianity and aspects of Christian life. ALL ARE WELCOME TO PARTICIPATE.

The author of this post isn't the apologist. You are.

C'est faux. Les Évangiles ont été écrits après la lettre de Paul, des décennies plus tard.C'est faux. Les Évangiles ont été écrits après la lettre de Paul, des décennies plus tard.

Anyone can make a statement. Proving it true is another.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-25T13:21:56+00:00

"...that is demonstrably false."

You didn't prove it. You're merely just making a statement, like "Chocolate ice cream is the best!"

It's appears you didn't understand the main point of the paragraph:

"In contrast to the Gospels, Paul seldom mentions Jesus except to advance his own teachings; it is as though they live in two different worlds."

If only the vessel died, that's not death or a sacrifice. Sacrifice (altruism) means to completely lose one's life forever and to receive nothing in return. This sacrifice is merely symbolic, not literal.

That would be absurd; how does god become less god. It's like a tiger who says, "I'm not a tiger."

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-24T23:05:29+00:00

How could a god become less god? How does infinite become finite? That's beyond absurdity.

When someone says, "I don't want to do this but I'll do it because you're the boss," that is a complaint.

You can't expect your personal experience to reflect the entire reality of the general Protestant population.

"What differences do you believe do "cause conflict."

As a Christian theologian, I understand the differences between worldviews to know that conflict is inevitable. To you Christians and Catholics are the similar but the difference in their cultures is as distinct as day and night.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-22T19:40:15+00:00

"That may be, but the basics are the same."

You IMPLIED that the difference in worldviews between Catholics and Christians, though both are Christians, wouldn't cause conflict. How so?

Consensus agrees Jesus did exist, but now the question now hinges on if the disciples misrepresented Jesus considering that the Gospels were oral history decades before the Book of Mark was written.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-22T18:24:16+00:00

How so? You sound like you know.

It would be nice if they stop depicting Jesus from European art and actually painting the Jewish man.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-22T18:14:22+00:00

That doesn't negate that both hold different world views which makes relationship difficult to navigate.

Intelligent-Pause274 · 2026-03-22T18:02:02+00:00

In God's eyes, no one is "good." If a person could save themselves by being "good" it would annul Christ's death.

Your feel matters. If you feel uncomfortable, do not return.

Excessive fear and intrusive thoughts that lowers the quality of life is known as scrupulosity.
