"Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life."

"For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous."

"Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:"

God is orders of magnitude beyond genius. But sadly Christians don't seem to think God can save on account of man's "omnipotent" free will thwarting God's plan.

The problem with the Christian religion is that their religious leaders think God needs their help to 'spread the gospel' and 'save souls'. In truth, God has been spreading the gospel in spite of the Christian religion perverting it for sixteen plus centuries.

I'll be liveblogging Something Blue every Saturday night if I'm able to. On Discord and on Daily Kos with promotion on the Gamer+ Mastodon server. This morning I've been working on Something Blue. Next up is church, helping Megan with the Eclectic Geekery mini storage, and then the Sunday afternoon game day.

St. Michael's Church Watercolor Line & Wash. Located at the corner of Meeting and Broad, St. Michael’s is the oldest church building in the city of Charleston, South Carolina. The 186 foot steeple, complete with bell tower and a clock that was imported from England in 1764, serves as a landmark and locational point of reference for the historic city. In this glowing painting, the setting sun lights up the clouds in the sky and reflects orange against the church and surrounding buildings. Trees lining the street appear lit from within in shades of green and gold.

Cupich, who leads an archdiocese including about 2 million #Catholics, said the #Church's teachings about helping #immigrants cannot be disregarded.

"This is not some abstract value that people who say they are #Christian can easily ignore," said the cardinal. "No, this is the kind of moral imperative that is tested in the here and now."

"I claimed in the end of the video that this was the first example of animated beta-reductions of visual lambda expressions. Paul Brauner has some videos here: • Lambda Diagrams [1] , although they do not explicitly animate the mechanics of one step of beta-reduction! I probably should have chosen my words more carefully."

"the amount of #faith it takes to #transition and believe it can get better is holier than any #church
Youve never met #anyone like you but youve heard people like you exist and youve heard nothing but awful awful things but. you know youre one of them. you know what you have to do. You cant do anything but pray that its better because you know you cant survive this anyways."

I truly love the poster advert, and it totally hit me. It's not about the chair itself, but rather losing out on being part of the fellowship.

What do you think of our new ad for @littlehillschurch ? #Advertising #Church #Christianity

The Genesis Abraham is the Future, not the Antique, Primordial Past. Abimelech and Pharaoh are the Christian Church. The Seed of Abraham is in the World Today but not of the Christian World Order. The Deeper Meaning of Abimelech and Sarah in Genesis.

The Book of Genesis is a prophecy about the Christian age. It uses emblems to tell a deeper spiritual story, which is wrongly interpreted by many Christians and Jews to be totally literal history. But Genesis is not literal history--Genesis is the prophetic future!

He said, "Of course I may be wrong,
But I wouldn’t be surprised
If this were the greatest Christian church
That ever man devised.

Our organ is the very best
Our choir stays on key.
Our stained glass windows — priceless
Our pulpit — the best you’ll see."

But only the wealthy were welcome there,
I heard slanderous gossip galore,
And from that pulpit so highly prized
The preacher glorified war.

"Is there anything more you could want in a church?"
In pride, he said to me.
"Just one thing," I made reply —

"Christianity!"

Some #theological hills I am willing to die on:
1) The plenary inspiration of #scripture
2) At bare minimum, adherence to the #doctrines proclaimed by the first four Councils of the undivided #church must be upheld.
3) The #eucharist / #lordssupper ought to be celebrated *weekly*.
4) The #eucharist / #lordssupper , while symbolic, is not merely symbolic but also a true/real encounter/communion with Jesus.
5) #Baptism *must* be done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
6) Baptism is #regenerative
7) #Liturgical #worship is essential because the #bible itself reveals the Church’s worship as liturgical.
8) The #unity of the Church is not merely a spiritual reality (i.e. invisible), but a reality that ought to be visible for all the world to see.
9) Except in the cases of #heresy or wholesale unrepentant #sin within a portion of the Church, rending the Church’s unity is sinful. (So, disagreements over adiaphora are not worthy of division -- no matter how much one love's their pet theological theory)
10) All #christians must pray for and actively work towards and for the reunification of the Church.
