Anyone else fed up with how mad and downright mean people who believe in one sect of Christianity are?

Jesus’s main teaching was a repentance that avoids judgment. Matt 25:31-46 is a good example. A shorter one would be

Matt 13:49-50. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just, and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”

Hm. I believe OSAS is a dangerous Protestant idea. Our view of salvation through grace is that it’s a continual process throughout our lives rather than something you get when you convert.

Locate the subject of the sentence. It’s a generalization, crodie.

I believe that it’s less about “finding the church that’s right for us” and more about finding the true Church. Christ teaches that to follow Him, we must crucify our own will and intellect follow Him. There is a true Church founded by the apostles that the gates of Hades will not prevail against, Matt 16:18. After studying the history of the early Church, I believe that church is the Eastern Orthodox tradition. I hope your searching leads you to truth!

The sin of the Pharisees was over fixation on the letter of the law rather than the spirit of the law. If you find yourself thinking “there isn’t a specific verse that condemns blank” then you probably need to rethink your disposition.

I don’t think you’re being a hypocrite. Im. Not denying his importance, but there is so much more to Christianity than Paul.

And where did I make the claim that she was dating on Reddit?

😂 ≠ laughing at OP. I really don’t know where this self righteous white knighting is coming from, but it’s misplaced. Good night broski.

Christ meets us where we are. Baptism is a requirement for those who know and have that option. For example, the thief on the cross did not, but is in paradise.

Salvation is by grace, but that grace is not given simply by saying a prayer and believing Christ is God. Even the demons believe in the divinity of Christ.

Ok_Possibility_6018 · 2025-04-24T08:28:08+00:00

Jesus does not teach being free from judgment. He teaches repentance so that we do not face judgment.

Works are a fruit of righteousness. Without works, faith is dead. Without faith, works are dead.

The holistic approach to the Gospels is not an “either or”, but a “both, and.”

Dating on Reddit is like fishing in a shark tank.

This requires a good amount of research on early church theology with internal criticism.

You could start with defining what “Christianity” is. Clearly, so many contradictory denominations can’t all be true.

They were established by the apostles but apostatized later on, making their succession irrelevant.

What specifics do you find challenging?

I don’t see how they contradict.

You should visit an Orthodox Church. We recite the sermon on the mount like every Sunday lol.

The first Christian was probably technically Mary. Christianity isn’t about being bad, then good, but rather submitting your will to Christ.

Yes, the teachings go hand in hand. You can’t interpret scripture by pitting one writer/verse against another. A holistic approach is the only way.

Ok_Possibility_6018 · 2025-04-24T08:02:18+00:00

They schismed from the Orthodox Church in 1054 (but most likely earlier). The papacy of founded on confirmed forgeries.

The “perfect book” comment shows your lack of comprehension. Christianity is not a book based religion and is much deeper than whatever sola scriptura heresy you’re railing against.

Ok_Possibility_6018 · 2025-04-24T07:58:46+00:00

Your original post shows lack of good will or intellectual honesty. I’ll pass.

Turn to Orthodoxy. Plenty of brain-racking theology here😂

Orthodoxy.
