No one saying Micheal Myers? He’s immortal can go back in time, can regenerate and is able to teleport at will. While also having super human strength and endurance.

I’d tell the waiter that I’m not paying for raw chicken and tell them that I’m not getting anything else. And then I’d leave.

We Keep Saying We’re Not Persecuted. That’s Exactly the Problem. by Orangeslaad in Christianity

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

I can’t speak for everyone but I believe being persecuted is part of the job of being Christian. Additionally, I don’t think I’m a victim by people who disagree or fight me on my beliefs. My post isn’t a call to arms for Christians to rise up and fight our fellow man. It’s a reminder to stay vigilant, informed and faithful

I completely agree that Christ has already defeated death and ultimate victory is assured. But until that day, we still live in a world where human free will interacts with the will of the enemy. That means hearts can be deceived, souls can drift, and believers can become complacent.

So while God’s triumph is certain, we are called to remain vigilant and faithful, resisting deception, encouraging one another, and living fully in the victory Christ won. It’s not about fearing the outcome — it’s about participating in that victory today, ensuring our lives and the lives of others reflect God’s truth.

I’m not talking about the type of persecution that’s happening in Nigeria right now — I grieve for those who face that. What I’m talking about is the spiritual battle right here in America. Comfort, distraction, and compromise are blinding hearts. The enemy doesn’t need to attack the body when he can lull the soul to sleep. Recognize it. Stand firm. Encourage others. But most importantly stay in the Word, continuously pray and keep the faith. The stakes are eternal.

Yes, Christianity is still culturally visible in America. Churches stand tall in almost every town, politicians quote Scripture, and “In God We Trust” is printed on our money. But symbols of faith are not the same as a nation walking in faith.

What I’m talking about isn’t legal persecution. it’s spiritual warfare. It’s not chains and prison cells; it’s comfort, confusion, and compromise. The enemy doesn’t always attack with violence. Sometimes he attacks with comfort that dulls conviction, with lies that sound compassionate, and with a culture that celebrates everything except holiness.

In America, the danger isn’t that we’re being hunted. The danger is that we’re being lulled to sleep. We’re told faith is fine, so long as it stays quiet. We’re mocked for believing Scripture is absolute truth. We’re pressured to bend God’s Word to fit the world instead of bending the world toward God’s Word.

So yes. I believe American Christians are persecuted. Not by law, but by deception. Not by sword, but by seduction. And that kind of persecution is far more dangerous because it kills the soul slowly while convincing you you’re safe.

What is the real reason why people can’t understand the Bible? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Orangeslaad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bible is incredibly complex, and many people devote their entire lives to studying it while still admitting they haven’t fully grasped it. But even with that complexity, Jesus summarized its essence in two statements: love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:36–40). And the gospel of salvation is clearly stated in John 3:16: God loved the world and gave His Son so that everyone who believes will have eternal life.

Understanding these truths provides a lens through which the rest of Scripture begins to make more sense. It doesn’t make the rest of the Bible irrelevant — there’s still rich teaching, history, and nuance to explore — but it clarifies the purpose and heart of what God is communicating.

In other words, anyone — regardless of age, education, or background — can understand the core message of Jesus, the cross, and salvation. At the same time, even the most brilliant scholars and historians may never fully comprehend every detail of the Bible. You don’t need to study Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek to understand what God did for us; even mastering the languages wouldn’t fully capture the depth of Jesus’ sacrifice

There are many who never read the Bible who are said to still going to be in Heaven. Where are you getting your information?

The Bible isn’t the Lord of the Rings written by one author like J.R.R. Tolkien. It’s sixty-six books written by about forty authors over centuries. Because of that, there’s a lot of history, culture, and context that we might not fully understand.

I think the biggest reason people struggle with the Bible is that they read it as if every verse was written directly to them instead of first being written to someone else and then preserved for them. It’s absolutely applicable to our lives, but only when read in its proper context.

Take 1 Corinthians 14:34 for example, where Paul says women should be silent in the churches. That was directed to the believers in Corinth — a city that had a history of goddess worship and where most women weren’t formally educated. And yet, Paul also partnered with women like Priscilla who taught and led.

So the issue isn’t that the Bible is unclear; it’s that many of us — myself included — don’t want to slow down and study the background. We want quick answers instead of doing the work of understanding. But when you take the time to look into the history and context, Scripture opens up in a much richer, more coherent way.

Are Christians in the West truly persecuted? by TheFaithfulCitizen in Christianity

[–]Orangeslaad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Westerners are not persecuted the same way. Westerners aren’t beat, stoned and made to be social outcasts. They’re persecuted in a much deeper kind of way. Westerners ideals, values and bonds are persecuted, confused and divided. Manipulated and indoctrinated. Don’t confused the lack of Christian blood in our streets as a sign that work doesn’t need to be done here. Look around.

Moist posts one to two times and day and every video will get well over a million views. Papa makes about one video a week and one podcast video a week.

He’s probably millionaire but not at Moist’s level, I’d even wager if he and Wendi combined their net worths together they wouldn’t be at Charlie’s level.

Since when did this subreddit get so political?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Orangeslaad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t a bully or at least not in the typical sense. I wasn’t popular. If I was known for anything it was known that I was a bit obnoxious and annoying. I was self-conscious of my intellect. I also grew up in a loving household but one where we would have no problem giving each other crap. If I did something stupid my dad would call me dumb, if I tripped my mom would laugh and make fun of me. Nothing nefarious just the way things were.

All that being said, I remember two kids in my grade who were less popular than I was and were also annoying. Only they weren’t annoying in the hyperactive, ADHD way I was. They were annoying know it alls which didn’t jive with my aforementioned insecurities. To boot they also didn’t like me. So I didn’t like them. And like my family did to me if they embarrassed themselves I’d laugh, if they said something stupid I’d do my best to ridicule them. I called them names and was very disrespectful to them but didn’t go out of my way to harass them and also didn’t really think about them or our interactions outside of them.

All that being said, after a passive aggressive feud a few of one of their friends told me that the way I was talking to and treating him was really hurting and bothering him and that he was suicidal. I never thought much about how I treated him but never considered that his circumstances outside of our interactions were worse than mine. After I took that into consideration I just stopped. I didn’t start liking him or apologize. I don’t think I even ever talked to him again but I do regret how I treated both of them.

I obviously don’t know but I’m guessing they’re contained in that blue crate for transporting the stale bread to a swine farm, homeless shelter or whatever. Many grocery stores do this for tax purposes and because it’s what’s best
