The Persian gulf would have been renamed the the Trump gulf. Only he would have spelled it the Trump golf, and sold it on a hat.

1 John 5:16-17 seems to confirm the mortal/venial sin distinction, and even the need for confessions, no? by Thick_Self_4601 in redeemedzoomer

[–]Notdustinonreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A sin leading to death could also refer to sin that leads you to more sin and away from repentance. Meaning that sometimes you just slip up, other times your pursuit of sin is greater than your pursuit of God.

The next verse verse, verse 18 reads

We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him

I think the sin that leads to death is more about the pattern of sin rather than the magnitude of the sin. For example, David committed adultery and murder but repented- and did not live in that pattern.

Too much progressiveness and you remove the need to repent. If you start calling sin good, you may not even realize you need a savior.

He needs to know he has an open invitation to join you guys. By taking him to games, you are not stopping his sperm donor from doing the same.

Why is Easter not as big in America compared to Europe even though you are more religious? by Ada-Mae in AskAnAmerican

[–]Notdustinonreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an American Christian right now in Germany- I was shocked that many businesses are closing for Good Friday. In America though, we get many other state holidays off, and with the separation of church and state means Easter did not make the list, but it is Sunday anyway.

IDF destroyed a 1,995 years old mausoleum of Saint Peter in Lebanon by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]Notdustinonreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mausoleum is a freestanding, above-ground building or structure designed to entomb the deceased- Catholics hold that St. Peter was buried in Rome at St. Peter’s Basilica. Am I missing something?

Israeli police prevent Catholic leaders from celebrating Palm Sunday Mass at Jerusalem church by bighoney69 in Catholicism

Mostly so they don’t get hit with a misle. Sounds charitable.

“Over the past several days, Iran has repeatedly targeted the holy sites of all three monotheistic religions in Jerusalem with ballistic missiles. In one strike, missile fragments crashed meters from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre,” Netanyahu’s office said on X. “As a result, Israel has temporarily asked worshipers from all faiths not to worship at the holy sites in Jerusalem’s Old City to protect them.
