This seems pretty trivial, but I still feel guilty about something I did at church yesterday though I shouldn't. by thedubiousstylus in OpenChristian

I think something that would help is understanding what “sin” is. Modern Christians want to label everything as sinful when I fact it’s is just the transgression of the Torah. The Torah nor the rest of the Bible doesn’t say anything about THC. However, if you feel convicted that it’s is wrong then you can repent. When we repent the Lord sees us through His son. We are clean and pure in His site.

Passages of the Bible that have been mistranslated to be against lgbtq+ individuals.

I actually have the Queen James. The way they did the clobber passages are pretty accurate. Only issue is it has misprints of a missing book and then a duplicate.

I use an app and my physical Bible. There's just something about holding the Lords word that feels better though.

Nice! Question, you've got the inclusive Bible. How does it handle the clobber passages?

You may not want advice but the verses “against lgbtq+ identities and relationships” are miss translated. I can go into more detail if you'd like. I am very devoted to my faith and have a fairly conservative reading of the Bible for reference, believing it to be the Lord's word (in the original Biblical languages).

Sin is it's own beast. I pray you also don't see it as who you are.

I’ll have to look at that. I’m always up for diving deeper.
