/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

I used to listen to them when I was 16

>>773868

why you stop?

>>773870

I don't have time to listen to silly industrial music, I'm 22 and if I do put on music anymore it's ambient electronic or classical.

>>773871

why you think laibach music is silly? it may rape your ears but i dont think its silly

>>772324

It’s not catholic, probably

>>772323

>I don't like this

>I disagree with your post

<So I'll poison the well

>>772263

varies I guess depending on where you live. I checked it out on my campus and it seemed like a normie youth group, not much to offer.

>what about fellowship

seemed cliquey like youth group 2.0 for kids who dont want to leave their high school days

maybe im just an pr1ck

>>772356

Literally this. CRU is theologically fast food. The one time I went, I was finding gross errors being presented as facts and I wasn't particularly God-fearing at the time or remotely trying to be Christian. When someone whose quite lapsed finds errors - that should tell you something.

Anyways,

>>772263

I recommend OCF if you just have to interact with peers. Otherwise, find a Church and go be an adult. Put on a nice shirt, some khakis, a tie, and GO TO CHURCH. Campus ministries are nice for people who are literally secularist and just now getting over their Angstheism and open to the idea of something more.

But otherwise, go to Church. You're going to be going to Church anyways in your post-college days, so just get used to it now. You'll probably be interacting with potential employers and people who can help you out after you graduate, so it's not just more spiritually beneficial, but socially/economically beneficial too.

>>772533

campus dynamic is different, esp if you live in a college town. for all their faults, collegiate ministries are great ways to meet solid people. if you just go cold-turkey and "muh go to church in khaki" than chances are you will be a loner. relationship,socializing,networking is an important part of college life. and no, i did actualy stem major with summa cum laude.

He is the

LORD

You have to use the special font.

>>773811

Tetragrammaton.

>>773826

That's a pretty weak special font.

>>773813

The name Jehovah (יֲהֹוָה) it's a mistake made from the Hebrew text where it said YHWH (יהוה) and since the pronounciation for the word was lost people didn't want to mispronounce it so they put the niqqud of adonai(אֲדֹנָי), My Lords, so people would remember to say that instead of just guessing on how to pronounce YHWH

>>773824

Dans mon langage, nous le nommons "Dieu".

>>773832

Nice meme

>>773753

Not him, but you can deflect call your opponents pinko SJW crypto-jews all you want, but your exegisis is still retarded, and an interpretation no serious theologian has ever subscribed to.

>>773605

>Every human on Earth is polluted by Angel blood

Where the winnie the pooh are my superpowers?

>>773777

We have the superpower to do God's will on earth, that's what the Saints do. But most of us either don't believe it or prefer to do our own will.

>>773357

The eternal Baptist strikes again.

>>769986

I work for a company that does a lot of contract work. I am having mixed feelings from a moral stand point and will probably quit eventually. Most people who work for the government are winnie the pooh lazy. It's glorified welfare.

>>773240

That is explicitly wrong, individuals who manages tax collectors bid on lots of taxes to be collected then sent the individual collectors to go and gather more than they bought it for to make a profit thus making the profession viable

This resulted in tax collectors overtaxing as a necessary part of their profession and in fact the very reason they had a job to begin with

>>773678

I wasn't aware we were still living under the Mosaic Law. I trust you've been a good Jew by also following the laws about putting homosexuals to death and not wearing mixed fabrics.

>>773724

Don't be ridiculous. The Law has not been abrogated, but it was imperfect because no one can fulfill God's will perfectly. Christ is the author of the Law and gives us its spirit, rather than its letter, and He gives us His Spirit to be able to fulfill His will perfectly this time.

The Law remains holy and edifying, and this is why the Ten Commandments are used so much, even if their interpretation changes with Christ ("do not kill" becomes "do not even hate", "do not commit adultery" becomes "do not even look at someone with lust", "remember the Sabbath" becomes "remember the Lord's Day", etc). You can't accuse someone of being a Judaizer for bringing up one of the ten commandments.

Anglicans lost true apostolic succession a long time ago. We have an unbroken line, but our theological intention and rites are totally broken and heretical. The only way for Anglicans to get back into succession is to reconcile with Rome or Orthodoxy.

I vote we go Orthodox and become the English Orthodox Church. Anglican Communion won't last another 70 years in the protestant world.

T. Anglican

>>768623

>why those people aren't good and godly like us

they literally do not have the apostolic succession. this isn't some arbitrary thing the Catholic Church throws around, they still admit the Orthodox Church still maintains it.

if you do not have the apostolic succession, they are not an apostolic church.

objectively.

>>769699

God willing, that still can happen somehow. The Orthodox were willing to incorporate Anglicans/Episcopalians in the 19th/early 20th century. There was a wing of Anglicans still in love with tradition enough to see this as the right thing, but they weren't enough.. and now that wing of Anglicanism is even a smaller minority today. Anglicans/Episcopalians chose the other direction and seemingly got devoured by unbelief and indifference throughout the 20th century. The only choice now is just to flee completely.

I think the Orthodox are the only ones who benefited from any of these talks. From those times, it produced a service book (the Hapgood version) and had help translating the liturgy that was also intended for the hope of a Western/Anglican rite. The Antiochian parishes still rely on a lot of this KJV/Book of Common Prayer English… but it wasn't just intended for them.

BEGOME ANGLICAN RITE GATHOLIC

Well, Ukraine is always an interesting case:

^This. Viewing digits as a "sign from God" is in the realm of numerology and divination, and other such paganism and Satanic rebellion against God.

Brother, many of us started there, and are now here. How would this be possible unless God survives all possible attacks from all angles? /pol/ for me, and at a time when i needed it, was helpful and productive for me to be able to see that Christianity was strong on intellectual and philosophical grounds, as well as faith. The ways of the Lord are mysterious, and even some of the most flagrantly anti-Christian threads can have the opposite of their intended effect and push people toward the Lord (for example, probably the closest thing to unanimous support on /pol/ is the widespread agreement that the society is being destroyed by its degeneracy). There is debate about it’s caused , and complete chaos about how to fix it. But it does not take too many more steps from there to begin to see that the church offers a solution, people there are willing to accept that on purely intellectual grounds alone. And then it does not take too many steps from that realization to have the further realization that God is real, and that a solution is only possible through Christ. Something like the above was my own path.

Having said that, if you are not already on pol , I would not at all recommend you begin now. It also helped to push me much farther away from God then ever before before it helped to bring me back. And the black pill thing is I think very real, and dangerous to the psyche / soul. In short, I should have never left the church or abandoned God. I had done both, and /pol/ I was very helpful for bringing me back.

Stay strong , brother. It’s a sick world out there.

>>773238

They are reacting. The average /pol/lack would have been as cucknat as ye olde boomer if they were born in a different era. They know not what they are doing, but they are acting on God-given instincts rather than attempting to suppress their human nature ala leftist trannies.

>>773204

/pol/ has too much anger and vanity. I just go to shitpost and call people out for saying stupid shit.

>>773222

No its not. There will be no property in heaven, and Christians were called to shed personal trappings. Realistic? no. but the bible does NOT give rights, only commandments, and property is not one of them.

>>767074

>CINO

I don't know where this came form but it needs to go back.

Otherwise good post, I guess.

>>773079

CINO = Christian In Name Only

It's used to describe people that claim to be Christians but are not. Like NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo who brags about his supposed catholic faith while he signs the late term abortion law. These are the people that use Christianity as a means to an end and not as a way to worship and love God.

>>766575

That's not what he said. These issues can be biological too and he openly says that. If you suspect it might be demonic oppression talk to a priest or better yet a trained exorcist priest. Just know that if you ask a liberal priest he'll probably tell you it's not true, just accept he's wrong and find a more learned priest. God bless.

>>773228

It's always biological too. Demons can cause afflictions but they have to act within the bounds of nature. Hindering the means of the attack with medication might be slightly helpful but it's always best to expel the entity responsible.

>>773079

>CINO

Basically anyone who thinks you can be both Christian and liberal.

>>773542

Alright i'll bite.

What's going on in the .webm?

>>773552

If I remember it correctly, Its either the .webm of korean women telling men to commit suicide, or a incident which happened in front of a school. Probably the former.

Either way, not something you'd want on your home country.

South Korea is supposed to be based. I thought their Presbyterian rate was 30-40% of the population.

What is the source of those claims about NK?

Tl;Dr?

>>773702

Romanticizing about pagans is useless tbh

catholic church is half the reason why most people were literate in the west after rome's fall

>>773544

well, among those who were literate I mean

>>773413

>"Stay united!"

You're 500 years too late, bud.

>>773557

What do you mean by this?
