A Prayer Of Salvation (1 Viewer)

That's actually extremely enlightening, I think for the first time ever, I understand why Americans (edit, I don't feel like being banned again today).

I tend to think it's mostly same as day 1, right? He didn't exactly come into a perfect situation.

And come judgment day God will have lots explaining to do as to how this could possibly have been his plan. Going to be an interesting discussion explaining the method for this madness. And there is lots of madness to wade through.

I don't see things that way. At all, really. And this is why:

Prv 3:5-7

5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
on your own intelligence do not rely;

6 In all your ways be mindful of him,
and he will make straight your paths.

7 Do not be wise in your own eyes,
fear the LORD and turn away from evil;

Is that first passage literally saying don't think for yourself, don't believe anything you see, just put faith in the imaginary sky being or am I missing some context?

... despite the fact that God created you with such intelligence and critical thinking skills.

Totally logical.

But not only that, that passage was posted in response to how God or Jesus would judge current day/Judgment day, so no matter what, no matter how awful the world is and people are, it doesn't matter, it was just God's plan, I guess?

Is it circular reasoning or the world's biggest cop out/excuse for no responsibility for any actions ever taken in the name of God. I guess it's both.

"The Lord works in mysterious ways."

Oddly, so does my nonsensical 7 year old.

Would be so curious to see what biblical Jesus thinks of humanity these days. If I had to guess he'd be in therapy moaning about out how things went so sideways. I've never seen this many Christians acting the polar opposive of what He taught. How did empathy become a four letter word for so many?

If he existed today, he would immediately be written off as too woke.

Yep. The NFLX series "Messiah" is pretty indicative of how he would be received by his own followers.

Yep. That was a pretty interesting show.

There was an outcry in social media to have the show canceled because it depicted the main character as homosexual. I thought that was a little much to try and agitate the right so I watched it to see how far it went. I didn't get any homosexual vibe from the main character and it was obvious, the real reason that the right was trying to get it canceled. As an ex-christian, I feel the way that the establishment received him was an accurate portrayal. Bummed it got canceled, but I think people don't want to stop hating the people they were taught to hate

To put things into context, Christians have been killing other Christians since before the Council of Nicaea. I think he's used to some unsavory behavior from his peeps.

Well, there's one massive difference isn't there? Back then there weren't millions who claimed to be devout followers of his teachings.
