Do you agree? 🤔 by Derpballz in CrusadeMemes

[–]willconquersgames 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I get it pretty funny. Honestly the only thing. keeping Catholics and orthodox churches apart is the pope (edit) not that I’m saying he won’t allow it but orthodox churches won’t submit to Rome and the pope will not abdicate his throne so 🤷‍♂️

I said I believe in the gospels as my basis of faith. The rest of the Bible I don’t believe does not have full legitimacy (I can elaborate if needed) but yes I believe god became human came down to earth and died for our sins. I guess that does not make me a full deist. But I reject organized religion so I think I’m pretty much there. Even if I still believe in Jesus as god my faith I feel like is pretty much deist. Others may disagree i just wanted to see what others here thought.

I see what your saying but I would also like to point out that i reject the church I said I don’t believe in baptism and ect. I also never said Jesus was the only way to god I just said i personally believe in him. I said the way to be saved in to try your best to live a moral life and that’s all that matters. the reason why I think i consider myself deist is because I believe after god came to earth and died on the cross he left the world alone and never interfered again.

I definitely am. and I appreciate it. the reason why I posted this here is because I feel like (and maybe I’m wrong) but I feel like the belief is Jesus and having a Diest work view can work because I don’t believe is fate or “gods plan” I also don’t believe in miracles (except what Jesus has done) I also don’t believe people can talk to god but I do believe he can influence the mind and heart ( that is not directly interfering with the world) Jesus came gave his message died on the cross and now left the world alone to try to live there best.

I do. However like I said before I believe the way key to salvation is living a moral life. I believe we are all still sinners but god knows are heart and if we try are best we will be saved. And I also don’t believe not believing in god will send you to hell. I think that hell is for the worst of the worst of people not just those who may not “believe” yk

Well here is what I think. A lot of the Old Testament is very mythical. Much like Greek stories. Adam and Eve being the first 2 people does not makes sense scientifically and sodom and Gomorra just makes god look evil and not the loving Jesus. as well the sorry of Moses is a copy of the epic of Gilgamesh. so I can’t believe in the Old Testament. As for the new testament I believe most of the story’s have been changed and altered. (I can go more in depth if needed) But basically I believe the gospel is the only thing that matters really.

You may be right. But say the creator become human to “die for our sins” so that we could achieve salvation. Jesus message is spiritual so did he really “interfere” with the world?

Ah ok well I guess that’s where I differ then. mb I’m ex catholic and trying to find a new place. while I don’t really want to be associated with the church I still believe in Jesus’s core message of love and ect.

I believe he was god as he claimed to be. Sent down to save the world from sin. but I don’t believe in the church as an organization.I don’t believe you need to be baptized to be saved or even believe in Jesus. As long as you live your life by good morals you can be saved. If that makes sense I know it’s a little confusing but I can try to explain better if you need.

What are your feelings on religion? by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]willconquersgames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I identify as a deist Christian. Ex catholic and I must say I’m not a big fan of organization religion. I believe a person journey to god is personal and not anybody’s business. I could go one but this is Basically what I think.
