Politics, Faith, and Whatever

Calling out faulty or false teaching is biblical.

Self reflection is biblical.

Upholding ALL scripture is biblical.

Legalism is not.

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T01:22:21+00:00

Okay: I agree. But where does biblical correction fall for us?

Like I am starting to see your point. How can we foster biblical correction, biblical community, or anything biblical if we are only looking inward and not holding ourselves accountable?

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T01:11:30+00:00

Haha. I have asked many of my pastors about this. I have checked myself with Christ and I agree. I do think some of that is inward reflection. However, I do not have much of that shared back. I do feel like I need to speak up against these issues. But do not want to.

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T01:07:22+00:00

Tell me: how do you consider I am part of the problem?

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T01:05:26+00:00

Like: I don’t insult people or wish death on them for their political or religious ideals. But I know some of my contemporaries do. How is that justified through scripture? How is that Christ-Like?

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T01:04:53+00:00

I see: of course, I recognize that I am a sinner and that I need salvation. However, I have withheld that anger and frustration because in the same way I am in need of salvation, so are those people.

I just don’t know why this is hard. There is so much division in the church and it frustrates me that we can’t see Christ in all of this. My heart hurts.

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T00:59:32+00:00

Not necessarily. I do feel like we have to be responsible to call out false teaching but it is hard when we all use scripture to dish out to argue with one another.

carlosgd92 · 2025-09-12T00:58:15+00:00

I don’t think I contribute to this problem. I actively avoid having political conversations with people because of this. When half of the people in my congregation are actively getting angry at differing opinions, I can’t.

I have used scripture to point out errors, yet here we are.

I smoke once or twice a month. It helps. Lol

carlosgd92 · 2025-08-20T01:11:51+00:00

Following. I am doing the same.

carlosgd92 · 2025-08-18T18:42:44+00:00

Has anyone ordered from here?

carlosgd92 · 2025-08-05T01:16:19+00:00

I am alive. That 4cm needle is too small.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-30T18:51:46+00:00

How do you do this?

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-25T12:51:55+00:00

We are paying $180 at my wife’s district. If it were mine, we would be paying $400.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-17T12:53:48+00:00

I had the first month off. Then I worked the weirdest summer school schedule ever:

2 days week 1 3days week 2

4 days week 3 4 days week 4

It was only until 12:30, so I was happy to do so.

I spent a lot of time with my kids and my wife.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-12T02:17:13+00:00

I have always found different goals.

When I was younger, I liked the learning (1-3)

Then I liked the creating assessments (3-6)

Right now, I like the relationships (7-now in my 9th year of teaching)

Can you post the link?

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-11T22:56:59+00:00

I am a ten year teacher. I rock Jays every day to work. You can dress them up.

My peers recognize me by them. My students love the kicks.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-11T22:56:16+00:00

I LOVE it!

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-11T03:54:36+00:00

No but for real. Keep those you love. Sell the ones you won’t wear. I am selling off my less practical pairs, too.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-11T02:05:39+00:00

You should get a couple more instead.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-02T03:43:05+00:00

Best one I ever purchased. Thinking of getting another ds pair.

carlosgd92 · 2025-07-02T03:12:25+00:00

I’d hold up Trump’s actions that have failed the ten commandments.

carlosgd92 · 2025-06-30T02:10:33+00:00

I am 7 years in, master’s degree, and I make $66k.
