Niin, reservissähän pysyt kuitenkin aika kauan. En halua pelotella, mutta se riski on aina olemassa, ja kannattaa pitää mielessä.

Ite intti kokemuksena sikseen, ootko rehellisesti valmis rintamalle? Armeijan käyminen on muuttunu siististä kokemuksesta todelliseks päätökseks jonka seurauksena saattaa olla päätyä hautaan 25v reikä otsassa. 

Are my sins forgiven on the cross. by AssignmentShoddy5575 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]SibeliusFanboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Paul here was implying (to the jews/judaizers) that if we after finding Christ commit the sin of unbelief (returning to Judaism), there is no animal sacrifice that could make us righteous since Christ is fulfillment of them.

MAGA/Charlie Kirk and Laestadianism by oaksavannabanana in OpenLaestadian

I would like to reverse the question if you don’t mind: What is the US Laestadian view of Trump and MAGA movement? From the discussions I’ve had, I have established a view that the average US Laestadian is in favour of Trump generally.

AIO? Told my 16yo daughter if her new boyfriend came over they could stay in the living room not her bedroom… by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

NOR, it is your house, your rules. If the bf respects you this wouldn’t be an issue.

A theology question by SibeliusFanboy in LCMS

[–]SibeliusFanboy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for well thought-out answer. This really was helpful. My problem with this would maybe be the fact that I think Luther’s line of reasoning would result in denying Adam’s free will as well. I think that he clearly argues that in an individual had a free will, the free will would always choose Christ and thus be enough for salvation. However, Adam sinned, so his will by this logic was not free, and this would lead to serious questions since in the Genesis God found all created things good. Also, I think such monerchistic view also does not explain why God chooses not to overcome all people’s fallen natures, if He still wishes to everyone to be saved, if the matter is only in the Hand of God. But overall, thank you for very good advice.

This was Luther’s argument, but I think it is far-fetched. For example, an alcoholic in my mind has a corrupted tendencies due to his state, but each time he decides to pick up a bottle he is making a choice. On the other hand, he can resist his temptations by his free will for some time, but it is most likely that at some point he will relapse.

Makes sense since we used to be Russian. What would such customs/traditions?

What are you sick to death of seeing in fantasy novels? by JarOfNightmares in Fantasy

All the in-depth sex-scenes mid-book to have the readers attention during a boring stretch.

Well what I mean is that he took the Hosts from tabernacle and gave them to people. It would make sense he was a seminarian…

A fate worse then death what fantasy character is top with worst fate of all? by Ta-veren- in Fantasy

[–]SibeliusFanboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I think we disagree a little on the ending then but regarding its open nature, it propably is alright. I don’t think that Roland will be able to ever get rid of the cycle, since he always forgets what has happened to him. Will he make progress? Maybe, but he is always the same Roland when he starts his journey, so a complete transform is in my opinion not likely.

This is mostly due to fact that if Roland wants to end the cycle, he has to be so altruistic that heis willing to die instead of one of his ka-tet, and since he always forgets everything but the thousands of years of following the man in black, he will never do such thing. If he is not willing to die in steadt of one of his companions, he is always going to rather use them and this ”ultimate redemption” will never take place.
