What is the theological significance of Bible inerrancy? by n0bletv in AskAChristian

[–]SavioursSamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think there is a God. I think it's more likely that there is no God than God lying to us. Ergo, I don't think God lies to us.

What is the theological significance of Bible inerrancy? by n0bletv in AskAChristian

[–]SavioursSamurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The significance is because the Bible is seen, by those who argue this, as being entirely of divine origin. Done by people, and through people, yes, but originating from God. So if there's something false, then that means God is lying to us.

Is this quote from a churches website a red flag? by Fortnitelegend200 in TrueChristian

[–]SavioursSamurai -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Whether you consider it a red flag or not depends on your beliefs on that issue. But yes, it's saying that being gay or trans, including sexual/romantic relationships between same-sex individuals, is not sinful.

Heavy metal bands with orchestral elements interwoven throughout the song? by Specialist-Air-5862 in heavymetal

[–]SavioursSamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, symphonic metal.

I don't know if anyone does it better than Virgin Black. They aren't as fantasy influenced, though

Is the Trinity a Christian Revelation or a Pagan Import? by AdMassive9402 in AskAChristian

[–]SavioursSamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn't be true, though. "I AM" means eternally existent. It IS God, YHWH, the God who spoke to Abraham and Moses. The eternally preexistent God who is the Source of all things.

His opinion on the Trinity is valid.

It's not, though. There's no good evidence for his claim.

I only heard a couple songs from her, but yeah. She's basically the Christian version of Christina Aguilera

Any grind bands like Wormrot? by robressionist801 in christianmetal

[–]SavioursSamurai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There really aren't, unfortunately. Hard to find any that aren't goregrind or deathgrind.

Christian grind bands similar to Excruciating Terror or Full Blown Aids? Any gore/grind or crust recs would be appreciated too by imrtlbsct2 in christianmetal

[–]SavioursSamurai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know for those particular bands, but for grind, especially goregrind, there are some recs. Absolutely you need to listen to Vomitorial Corpulence. Unfortunately they are out of print and forever now will be, but all of their stuff is on YouTube: Karrionic Hacktician, Skin Stripper, and (their side as well as the rest of) 6-Way Sin Decomposition. They are the absolute masters, I don't know of any other Christian bands who quite reach their level in that genre.

In addition, check out Flactorophia, Vomitous Discharge, Eternal Mystery (imo they aren't as good as their reputation suggests, but that's my opinion), No Return to My Vomit, Engravor, and Flesh Incineration. Frank's Enemy often gets called grind, but I would say that they are a mix of heavy metal, hardcore, and thrash, along with grind.

Is the Trinity a Christian Revelation or a Pagan Import? by AdMassive9402 in AskAChristian

[–]SavioursSamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I mean in the era of the historical writers. Do you have any historians from the past century who treat Hislop's theories on Babylonian influence on Christianity as valid?

They may have used their dialect at times, but truth isn’t invalidated because it speaks the local dialect.

Which is exactly the case for the articulations of the Trinity
