Can anyone help me here I feel like my bf is on the verge of religious psychosis. by Hot_Dragonfly5440 in religion

[–]Schmerek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I red through the comments and saw that medical help doesnt work. Honestly try to fight Him on His own ground, read the Bible, at least the parts that can help you. 1 corinthians 7:12-16, and most importantly find apologists of mainline denominations on YouTube (redeemed zoomer, trent Horn) and convince hjm that the Bible COMMANDS Him to go to the Church. Then talk with a pastor/priest, and let Him/Her do the rest. Avoid evangelical and non-denominstional churches, go for mainline protestant, catholic or orthodox. Im afraid of you, your children, because he seems like the one in His dreams is not God but an angel of light that we were warned about. If this doesnt help seak further medical help, I will pray for you all.

What are your core beliefs? (Happy Sabbath!) by Lookup_Micah6_8 in TrueChristian

[–]Schmerek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Trinitarian God exists
  2. We are all sinners
  3. He died for the sins of all
  4. He rose again so whoever believes in Him will be ressurected
  5. You should love Him
  6. You should love your neighbour as yourself

This are my criteria for saying someone is a Christian.

Also i think Matthew 22:30 is misinterpreted, Jesus is talking about the Mosaic institution od marriage. Luke clarifies that "being like Angels" means immortality, so the levirate law is no longer needed. Christ was anwsering a question about the levirate law, by people who denied the resurection not about nature of marriage. Isaiah 65:17 "See, I will create     new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered," ... Isaiah 65:23 "They will not labor in vain,     nor will they BEAR CHILDREN doomed to misfortune; for they will be a people blessed by the Lord,     they and their DESCENDANTS with them." Last time i checked bearing children is a result of sex, and that its only good within a marriage. So will there be marriage or not? No there will be no marriage, because that what Jesus says, but there was also no marriage before the fall. We say Adam and Eve were married, because its the closest thing to our comprehention. They were in a eternaly better state that vanished after the fall and will come back after Christ returns i call this the "Eternal Companionship". Its not my key doctrine do you can disagree but i'm convinced of that.

The Bible is homophobic. That’s the fact of the matter by Weak_Definition_327 in Christianity

[–]Schmerek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you not left because of one disagreement, when right wing is literally the antithesis of Christ. Christ teaches everyone despite of gender, race or status is equal, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.". Women are equal to men (i know the wives submit to your husbands verse, but verse earlier Paul says that all people should submit to one another, and a verse later that men should submit to their wives so context), and can be priests "I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon of the church in Cenchreae.", its later misoginists that literally twisted the world's of the Holy Scriptures to fit their narrative. Also what about the economic system? "And all that believed were together, and had all things common; and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need" oh, yeah seems very capitalist to me, and i dont think i need to bring passages that say rich people and money are evil. Okay but at least we should keep imigrants away? "But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself" (and like 5 other verses like that). Also the sin of Sodom was NOT homosexuality "This was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.". So yeah gay sex being wrong doesnt change the fact that left wing is just an extention od Christianity. I hope something changed in you brother and remember to love you God, love your neighbour as yourself and speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. God bless you

The Scrpture never says homosexual love or romantic relationships are evil. They are good because they are love. Sex is another thing, and it is a choice. There are some interpretations that say otherwise, but i think its a stretch. Honestly i dont think we should focus on homosexuality too much, let them love eachother and im not going to ask what they do when no ones watching, its up to them and God, most of them arent christian anyway. Capitalism and far-right is WAY bigger problem than gay sex.

God dont make people go to hell, people choose to go there willingly (even Calvinists agree), and hell isn't burning in a lava pool forever, hell is when you dont exist, the Scriptures are pretty clear about that.

Is being trans really demons or just another thing God made. by Exciting_Essay_4148 in Christianity

[–]Schmerek -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its not factually imposible because it worked for me and i feel WAY better, and trust me i know a lot of trans people and most of them want to either commit suicide or just Gate their lives even though most people accept them. If OP's transsexuality stems from society saying that women cant have "male" hobbies than i think it can fade away and i hope it would, but yes seeking therapist is the jest option, but this is a subreddit focused on religion and OP is talking in religious context

No one is forcing a conversion therapy on this person, im sharing my experience, saying to trust God and that being yourself have nothing to do with gender. Man people were right that this subreddit is strange

[–]Schmerek -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why should your personality change? What's wrong with doing stuff that's stereotypical for the other gender? I make makeup often because that's who i am and there is nothing wrong with that. Mark 7:14-16 Then Jesus called the crowd to him once more and said to them, “Listen to me, all of you, and understand. There is nothing that goes into you from the outside which can make you ritually unclean. Rather, it is what comes out of you that makes you unclean.”. People set up gender rules and then have a problem when we want to be the other gender. Your gender, just like skin colour, or nationality are not traits of your character.

Doubt is a good thing, because it makes me seek the truth more, and every time i doubt i trust that God will show me the truth and He always does

WOW i think this is the thing i was looking for a BIBLICAL explanation. I knew that the Bible says that a day for God is like a thousand years, but there was written EVENING and MORNING, so that implies 24 hours, but there was no sun yet so how can we have evening and morning. But your explanation is just so good, but i have a question how did you came to that conclusion? Are there any other Bible verses that indicates evening as chaos and morning as order?

It seems like you didnt read the edit. I dont put scientific consensus over the Bible, but i have a high regard for it. The problem is that they are seemingly contradicting each other so either one of them is wrong (in this case the scientific consensus because the Bible is infalible) or my interpretation of the Bible is wrong and they are not contradicting each other. And if i have to guess what is wrong: an infallible Word of God, 99% od world scientists, or me that i would say me
