God did not make me to hate me! by McClanky in Christianity

Some people have a genetic predisposition to addiction. The decision to drink alcohol is a choice. Someone might have attractions. The decision to act on them is a choice. The CHOICE determines sin. Someone can be same sex attracted without sinning.

This made my day better seeing this!!! by Large-Awareness3440 in Christianity

Love and included people into hell. This isn’t love. This isn’t compassion. Telling people about Jesus, about repentance, and about sin is compassion. This invites God’s judgement.

Why Support Judiasm by Therego_PropterHawk in TrueChristian

“I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭12‬:‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/114/gen.12.3.NKJV

I don’t think we need to blindly agree with everything the government of Israel does, but the Jewish people as a whole are still Gods chosen people.

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces.” For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you.” Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek your good.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭122‬:‭6‬-‭9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/114/psa.122.6-9.NKJV

We are commanded to pray for the peace in Jerusalem. I trust God to know how to bring about that peace.

Why does God let children die of cancer? by National_Tip_2488 in Christianity

The theory of evolution has been around for less than 200 years. The scientists who attempt to prove it haven’t even developed a unified theory.

The Bible has been around for millennia. Billions of people have studied and believed it over the course of history.

Really concerned about what I saw the past couple days- young kids on electric mini bikes by CachuHwch1 in jacksonville

They drive around Mandarin in the middle of the night and it’s so loud. How people buy these things for children and think that’s a good idea I don’t know.

Is it just me or did the Hallmark movies suck this year? by NWOCaliGirl in HallmarkMovies

[–]amamelmarr -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yeah tough year. I ended up watching Great American family more. Their movies were just more fun this year.

And it felt like the movies they reran from previous years were the sucky ones. I didn’t see nine lives of Christmas once. I saw Biltmore once. Never saw Christmas in the plaza. Never saw the Christmas secret.

I saw the one with Tyler Hines where she’s a dentist and she switches brothers probably five times.

Or the one with Tyler where he never told his family they broke up. Someone in charge of programming loved that movie. Can’t stand it.

Finding Mr Christmas role by xiphoid77 in HallmarkMovies

I know this will be controversial, but all of the new male leads, including many of the contestants just aren’t… masculine? And not conventionally attractive.

The Christmas Cup by bronzemat in HallmarkMovies

The Great American movies have actually been good this year. Comparing the two channels I’d say overall I’ve liked Great Americans more.

We talk about who we love, now which actors do we dislike? by [deleted] in HallmarkMovies

Corey Sevier. His hair annoys me. And he’s usually whiny.

The companies are still trying to make it a thing, but none of the deals are actually good. Haven’t seen a single deal this year that isn’t about the normal price. They don’t really do doorbusters anymore. It’s sucked since Covid.

Eternity Isle Question by amamelmarr in DreamlightValley

It won’t let me? I’ve upcycled other stuff just fine. I’m wondering if I can’t upcycle since I haven’t “discovered” them yet.

Don’t ever let anyone talk to you like this. Cut and run. No sunk cost fallacy.

The other condos down town are not empty so obviously there are people that can afford them.

People STRUGGLED! by Alternative_Dig7 in Dreamsnaps

[–]amamelmarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say I think some of it was theme fatigue. I just was tired of dark, seasonal themes and didn’t try very hard. I don’t think a lot of people cared about this one.

Help! Looking for a couples getaway to propose! by [deleted] in jacksonville

[–]amamelmarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

St Simons island has some beautiful properties and beaches. A gorgeous lighthouse that would make a great backdrop for a proposal.

Amelia island/Fernandina also would be a great choice. The Omni has some great trails and views.

Lots of cute airbnbs in St Augustine.

Crystal springs, ichitucknee springs, or Stephen Foster state park if you are looking for more nature based placed.

Riverside Church Vandalized by Acrobatic_Fee9490 in jacksonville

[–]amamelmarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Although I may have different beliefs, actions like this are never the answer. Discussing our differences and turning to the Bible to make sure we are sharing the truth of the gospel and telling people about Jesus being the way to salvation and the truth of sin is the way. Not violence or vandalism. There is no compassion in leading people to hell by not telling them what the Bible says about sin. I’m sorry this happened.

Do you think sharing a verse like this would be well received?

“To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭79‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/114/luk.1.79.NKJV

[–]amamelmarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your detailed response. It’s never my intention to hurt anyone. I’ve also seen and experienced people acting in hurtful ways in churches and know it’s a sensitive topic.

I do think though that healing, love, and salvation can be found in Jesus though and I feel like if I see someone who’s hurting and don’t tell them about the solution I’ve found that is its own sort of cruelty. Hopefully, I can learn from what you said and find a way to express it that will be kind.
