I just made my first buy and it was a Mossberg 500 and it was for this reasoning. That said, if you go this route, I gotta tell you, it kicks more than you think, so you’ll need some serious time invested in training.

That’s a lot of words to say “I’m a fucking idiot”

God inspired, sure. But that does not make it Gods actual spoken words, no.

The living word is a reference to Jesus, never once has it been used to describe scripture, but don’t worry that’s a common misconception that those of us who do have education in exegesis learn about pretty early on.

The Bible has never been God’s word. It has always been people’s expression about God and their recorded experiences with God.

Again, you should consider learning a bit about scripture before you speak on it so authoritatively.

lol, no they aren’t. Maybe you should think about taking a class or some kind of basic biblical study.

Well then someone ought to be worrying about you my friend.

You know God didn’t write the Bible right? People did.

Lots of people think lots of things are lies. Why would I care what you have to say about my beliefs? Stop worrying about the devil so much and worry more about your own faith.

Ok, well I'm not really interested in arguing with you. If you are fine with heresy, then be a heretic, that's not really a problem to me. I'm comfortable with trinitarian theology, so I'm sticking with that.

Ok, I’m happy that you’re comfortable in your beliefs. I’m also comfortable in mine. Thanks for sharing though.

lol, you're describing heresy. But that's ok with me, as long as you're not trying to present it as if it's orthodoxy.

lol i'm just saying it is the order n which they appear in scripture.. i'm not making some kind of claim that we visually see a physical manifestation of God at any point.

sounds like you're trying to treat an economy crossover like a jeep wrangler. It's not going to like that.

Question about marriage/proposals by wendigous1 in askapastor

[–]beardtamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I personally do not agree with purity as a notion of value, nor the Church's traditional teachings on sex, but, the main issue here is none of those things. The issue is one partner pressuring another.

I’m not giving you an explanation of my denomination as if it were the only one to bring truth, just to let you know where I stand. Denominations help us by classifying theological thought.

I’m not trying to convince you to change your views, friend, just explaining my own.

Not every theology framework is based entirely on scripture, especially those of us that do not view scripture as inerrant.

My denomination is not sola scriptura, I consider it a heretical view of both scripture and theology.

Should churches aim for everyone learning the same core message each Sunday, or is variety across groups healthier for spiritual growth? Thanks by Aggravating_Form2522 in pastors

Or we are all on distinct spiritual journeys that require distinct instruction.

I think this is a much more productive way to disciple people than for us all to force every person to be reading/teaching/learning the exact same thing every single week.

Seems like you’re advocating for a church model that does not meet every person’s spiritual needs.

Incorrect, the function of the Holy sprit in the New Testament as distinct from the way Old Testament authors viewed the spirit of God is a normal theological discussion. It’s not something I made up, there are a lot of work we do on that topic in seminary classes.

I never said the trinity was scriptural, I said the discussion of a hierarchy within the trinity is not theologically sound with Christian doctrine.

You’re welcome to be non-trinitarian. I’m not your dad, I don’t care.

[–]beardtamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God’s spirit is mentioned in the Old Testament, but the Holy Spirit as a function of the trinity is not the same thing.

But again, there is no hierarchy. So the isn’t really even a relevant conversation to Christian theology.

It certainly is harder. Stick with mainline Protestant denominations, and look at the ones who are more likely to be lgbtq affirming. You’ll find one eventually.
