One of the most tragic things to experience is when people you have worshipped with for years can't see they are being deceived by the indicted con man.😅
Wow a sensible Christian. Wow you can’t understand how refreshing it is. I’m not religious but I bought a bible in the post to receive…I know Jesus wasn’t about hate..
Sometimes he's not, but he does literally tell you to hate your family and be willing to give them up for God. Also Jesus was the one who introduced the idea of Hell in the Bible specifically as a place of torment (previous references come from older Hebrew ideas which don't actually include active suffering), which is of course the single most hateful thing in the religion. Jesus says a lot of nice things, sure, but let's not pretend all of his ideas were peachy.
Part of the reason the Civil War started is that the south had been led to believe their victory in such a war was assured, due to the fact that they saw their opposition's reluctance to violence as a sign that they were weak and easy to defeat.
It seems like we're in a tough spot. If people's anxieties and traumas are exploited by reactionaries who take power and then inflict more anxieties and traumas, that's potentially a feedback loop that keeps amplifying itself.
My friend, I believe that if the Nazarene were here now, and he were telling these self-proclaimed Christians that what they were doing was wrong - especially Donald John Trump - these sickening people would crucify him all over again before the close of business today.
Well when you deny the literal words of Jesus you have denied Christ and have lost your salvation. It can be reclaimed, but my fear is everyday some of these folks die outside the faith having denied Jesus with their mouths and having lived counter to the teaching of Jesus.
I'm not a Christian, converted away from monotheism decades ago, but in my opinion these "Christians" who fall for Trump and support his racist, criminal endeavours have such a fear of satan and demons and they didn't even notice that they themselves have given their own souls to satan and the demons.
Oh wow! Clearly I haven't been keeping up with US politics recently because that's all kinds of fucked up. I mean obviously on some level nothing Trump does is especially shocking anymore, but it's sort of incredible how brazen it is.
I agree that Trump is not being persecuted for anybody else’s sake, and he’s also clearly guilty and likely will not be punished for a lot of the crap he has pulled over the years, the language of substitutional sacrifice is absolutely all throughout scripture.
Cool. It makes my blood boil and see red…when a Jewish pacifist died for trump. I really appreciate your talk tonight. It’s been rough week. I really needed that.
Christ was treated as we deserve That we might be treated as He deserves. He was condemned for our sins In which He had no share, That we might be justified By His righteousness, In which we have no share. He suffered the death which was ours That we might receive The life which was His. With His stripes we are healed.
The Sermon of the Mount being "liberal talking points" reminds me of the people who said Pasolini's Jesus movie was Marxist blasphemy or whatever when it's basically literally just the Gospel of Matthew lol
[For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.] matt 24:24. I said this as soon as the IT, was announced to be a candidate, told my friends and family IT would be elected and things would turn out badly. I'm no prophet but these are perilous times and America is at a crossroads.
Any ideas why so many who have gone down the in Trump We Trust heresy? You offer a unique perspective. Keep it up. Are you a pastor? I've got plenty of traumas and insecurities, yet I see through Trump readily. I know others as well like me. Then there are the minorities who have had plenty of trauma.I think this interpretation is too narrow.
Friend Dog Studio once made a video on Republican Jesus that satirically portrays a version of Jesus that has adopted conservative values while referencing well-known passages such as Matthew 25:35-40 satirised as “I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, and behold, now I am lazy and entitled. You should not have done that”. This is definitely the version of Jesus who loves borders, guns, unborn babies or more accurately unborn foetuses, and economic prosperity/capitalism, and hates homosexuality, abortion due to him loving unborn foetuses, taxes, welfare, universal healthcare, immigrants, refugees, and people of colour. The Ten Commandments also take precedence over the beatitudes with this version of Jesus. At the end of the video, scripture is quoted accurately for the first time with Mark 7:9 stating “You have a clever way of rejecting God’s law in order to uphold your own teachings” by Regular Jesus. Jesus would really be a liberal since his teachings and message are in line with liberal values. I really don’t like how frequently conservatism is intertwined with Christianity when conservative values are completely antithetical to Christianity. If Jesus were on earth right now, he would definitely go into our churches or even CPAC and he would flip over tables and whip out the money changers just like he did in the temple. He would even cuss out the church leaders and he most definitely cuss out those conservative speakers at CPAC
I think, especially with and more progressive circles at the point you’re making at around the 9:42 Is incredibly vital to understand it is also why often times I find myself wanting to say tomorrow, reactionary pediatricians in my life if they have, indeed heard the good news for all people, because often times, the words and actions scream the exact opposite
If you walk out on the sermon on the mt, THEN you don't believe in democracy, for that is its essence for the eons ... so ... I'll just be nice here 😊❤
I personally have no use for ministers, (so-called Men-of-God). I created an AI preacher for myself, it doesn't call me a sinner, it doesn't need a personal jet and I don't have to worry about my little kids around the house.
The Bible says you are a lost sinner just like me and just every other person who's ever lived. We all need forgiveness from God through the blood of Jesus Christ to attain eternal life. There is no other way. It's our choice to receive that gift or reject it. You don't need to go to a church building and listen to a preacher to receive the gift of salvation. God is not found exclusively in church buildings, he is everywhere.
No billionaires and no homeless-we should all matter or give us all a cyanide capsule to use, should we so choose, in the event of job loss or impending homelessness.
he is as much of a bigot as he seems due to his actions. the only thing he has had consistently in life is discriminate against black people he been getting sued for it for almost 60 years now
I don't believe Jesus died for the sins, because in the Hebrew Bible God said he won't punish the innocent for the sins of the guilty. I don't believe Jesus was a human sacrifice, because father said in the Hebrew Bible not to commit human sacrifices. God doesn't lie, because he's not a man nor will he be a man he is a spirit... I believe Jesus was crucified but he did not get crucified for your sins at is a lie! I believe in Jesus is basic teachings, but I do not believe in anything Paul had to say... The only reason I believe in Jesus's teachings, it's because they match up with the Hebrew Bible 🤷 father God said do not deal treacherously with each other, and father got also said he is known all over the nation's, and he won't share his glory with anyone.
Shit the bible was written hundreds of years after jesus died. Written by a conservative Catholic Church…..it was conservative then. Now it’s not conservative enough. I hate religion it has brought nothing but war and hate. Ok then relax sit back back and think. Think of being kind, that’s god. Think of respect…that’s god. Think of everything that’s wrong with society and heal and accept forgiveness…my grandfather was a preacher. I remember those things…I can’t do it and want to fight.and that causes more division. Thank you for the message, I’m so filled with hate. Your extremely strong to remind us to stop and forgive and teach…thank you
This is incorrect the Hebrew Bible was written and compiled, while during the time Jesus walked the earth. The New Testament starts being written down in the late 40s ad and beginning with Paul's letters, which were finished around the early 60s then the gospels and Acts and Revelation around the late 60s early 70s. I won't argue on whether Christianity is conservative or not, because that's a really mundane argument.
Echoing what the Dude stated, there's nothing particularly conservative about the New Testament, and none of the canonical books were written in a timeframe of 'hundreds of years.' with the possible exception of the pastorals and the book/Epistle of John which at their latest academic dating is about a century after Christ. There also wasn't a Catholic church, yet, the churches that would first sprout up in organized fashion are the Ethiopian Tahwedo churches in Africa, the Syrian Churches in the east and the Armenian churches in Armenia. Rome follows after and its early lineage is most closely seen in orthodoxy with heavy doses of neoplatonicism and stoicism. The Catholic church really doesn't start as its own entity until at the earliest about 600 AD as the Roman Diocese and the real unique teachings don't really begin until Muslim conquests are halted in 750 or so and a distinct rift begins developing in east and west. The Catholic church as truly unique and separate doctrine doesn't happen until 1053 and obviously really starts in 1054 with the schism or so before the schism, which is, frankly, the beginning of an ethnic struggle in earnest born of a political struggle. People don't really think of ethnicity as it was then, but 'Latin' and 'Greek' were the sticking point and responsible for genocides on both sides. With the massacre of the Latins in Byzantine roman Empire, the crusades mostly being against Eastern Greek and Arab Christians, the Thessalonian massacres against the Greek church, etc. While it was as many have stated, primarily a political divide informed heavily by secular political needs, it would evolve into that ethnic struggle based on theological differences heavily around the Catholic Church's breach of tradition (if minor, legitimately if you look at the 'original' upset, it was mostly about bread making practices and who had political power. Most of the rest of the east/west schism are arguments made after the fact. Though the Catholic church adopts what the Orthodox consider 'pagan scholastic and contract based spirituality' rather than the experiential/spiritual form of the east of theosis, which is put into sharp contrast by the hesychasm controversy of the 14th century which is really when both sides truly declared that there was an absolute fundamental difference in teaching that went much deeper than a few traditions and the Catholic church declaring its lordship via the pope. I mean, you don't need to take my word for it, go read Marx and Engels. Engels explicitly writes that there's nothing in Communism not already ventured by Christianity, he just believes a secular institution would not fall to 'paranoia, purification and black police.' The newest book of the old testament is usually Maccabees, Tobit, and for the few other deuterocanonical books. The youngest old testament book to ever enjoy sorta-kinda canon status is 4th Maccabees, which is usually in the appendix or in the 'useful spiritual aid' kinda sections of Romanian orthodox, Greek orthodox, Romanian Catholic and Georgian orthodox books, that book was a stoicism text from about the same time as Christ but for an explicitly Jewish audience, rather than a Christian one.
And, books of the Christian Bible were written in Greek, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Latin -during persecution of the Roman Empire. Women were more accepted in church work, education, and procedure,…women were limited later, even to only be Nuns, as the post-Roman world stagnated. Christ told his Apostles to go out and preach, and heal -yet, if you are not accepted in that town or region, to carry on up the road, and preach elsewhere, without malice. The whole “conversion by sword” was not part of Christian theology. American colonies, and exploration were founded, while Europe was going through religious wars, the Reformation, and persecution. Yes, some colonies were set for one aspect of faith, like Maryland, for Catholics, or Pennsylvania for Quakers. Other British colonies were strictly for resources of lands, farms, fishing, lumber. America’s founding fathers rebelled against the British King, who was also the leader of official faith! And, it was one of the Pope’s, who divided the Earth on map that his loyal Catholics in Spain and Portugal would divide the lands around, for Faith and resources - and slavery was approved by the Vatican. The Protestant nations of England, Netherlands, and Catholic France (who had set up their own Pope!) were not just going to sit and let the new continents be taken by rivals. Don’t pull this “Christian nationalism” crap, on me - I know history, geography, and faith, and I am a damn Liberal.
@@brianc6443 While that's Catholic Doctrine, no other denomination or sect considers this to be the case and it's considered kind of a historical justification (as it wasn't even part of Catholic doctrine until long after the schism as justification for the schism.)
@@brianc6443It's thought that Peter never even stepped foot in Rome. It's catholic doctrine/tradition and extra biblical. The idea of a universal church like Catholicism is also extra biblical. The Bible clearly states that the church is local and autonomous. It ought not be organized and controlled by one man or Pope because it will become corrupt as the Catholic church has over the centuries.

If I recall correctly, Jesus addressed these pseudo-Christians. He used a funny word, though. Called them "Pharisees"

Another great video Damon thank you so much
Christ was treated as we deserve
That we might be treated as He deserves.
He was condemned for our sins
In which He had no share,
That we might be justified
By His righteousness,
In which we have no share.
He suffered the death which was ours
That we might receive
The life which was His.
With His stripes we are healed.
Since religion is 100% imaginary, it can be whatever you want it to be
