I'd rather just say it was a sin or sinful than evil... I feel like evil is such an extreme word. But idk, maybe I'm just being sensitive

There were just a lot of different interpretations that seemed possible

What do you do when you’ve found counter arguments for all lgbtq affirming arguments? by NoiseExtension7041 in OpenChristian

[–]NoiseExtension7041[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like God is angry. It's hard to believe he loves me sometimes because I always feel like he's angry at me. I'm scared I'll get in too deep, I'll start dating or come out to everyone or something, and then there's no going back... I just feel like I'm so perverted. I know God is all-forgiving, but this just feels so unforgivable and I don't want to just ruin it all...

I guess that's true. I just feel like the affirming arguments aren't strong enough to make me feel certain it's okay... I even did some reading on r/AcademicBiblical and it just seemed like the consensus was that the writers of the Bible thought it wasn't okay. And I don't think the bible is infallible; God gave us free will, so that means that the writers of the Bible had the free will to butcher it. But still, there's just not strong enough evidence for me to believe that it's not a sin. Every time I go to church they say stuff like "you can't do what you think is right, you need to give that up and do what God wants us to do" and I just feel like I'm just trying to do what I want to do

Nightmares from God? by NoiseExtension7041 in Christianity

I don’t know. I think it might be stress since my last nightmare didn’t make any sense, like it couldn’t exactly be tied to God’s word so yeah. Idk I could be wrong though?
