I've actually been thinking joining Eastern Orthodoxy. I've heard it's pretty based. I just don't know how based it is.
Nathaniel Thomas
By the way this fucking annoys me. Some fucking faggot LARPs as an orthodox and suddenly the entire religion is suspect? What the fuck are you talking about? Of course the kikes would do something like that.

About the Mark of the Beast
If it weren't a physical mark you need to get that person to speak "hail the antichrist and satan" EVERYTIME HE BUYS SOMETHING
Which means it must be a physical mark. "Worship the beast and receives his mark" NOT "receiving the mark BY worshiping the beast."
This means the mark is not spiritual because that spiritual act is denoted by "Worshiping the beast." >So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
The mark causes a severe allergic reaction. And physical corruption. The worship is spiritual corruption. They are separate.
>And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also will drink the wine of God's wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name.”
This verse says "receives". If you did received a mark, but not "receives it"any longer, then you are not cast into the fire. Because the condition is PRESENT TENSE not PAST, because you removed it from yourself. >Λαμβανει = Receives Strong's G2983 for meaning and G5719 for tense.
See what Jesus Says on the matter.
Josiah Miller
Sermon on the Mount >If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.
>And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into the hell of fire.
This verse is about mystery cults in the ancient world, Deuteronomy also makes note of this, It is saying "I am owned by you". By cutting off the mark you are saying you renouncing your membership.
>You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the Lord.
Cuts were made in lamentation. Tattoos are forbidden because of cults exclusively.
Eleusinian mysteries the Most popular of all cults, and the one that inspired many others. Foot - Eleusinian mysteries, and many other rituals have sacred "foot paths" they had to walk, usually to water. This means markings on the feet applied in many cults because many had sacred footpaths.
Halade Mystai - Means "To the sea initiates!" A necessary and "sacred" footpath for ritual bathing. Eyes -Eye tattoos of the cornea have existed well over two thousand years. Epoptês : "one who has seen," an initiate Mystês which is the root of MYSTERY: "one who is [whose eyes are] closed," someone to be initiated
>"Blessed is he among earthbound men, who has been privileged to see the mysteries." - Hymn to Demeter 480
Easton Kelly
Christianity is centered around freeing people from the obligation to sin. Cults included.
>Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
>So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
>The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, >because he has anointed me >to proclaim good news to the poor. >He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives >and recovering of sight to the blind, >to set at liberty those who are oppressed, >to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”
Blake Bell
>Then I saw thrones, and on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.
This paragraph above shows that those ONLY who did not receive the mark AND DIED during the tribulation will be a part of the 1st resurrection, and become priests in the temple and kings. ANYONE who goes through the tribulation and survives without the mark presently will live a normal life. People who take it on the forehead will be the most lunatic people, like people who do body augmentation putting horns on their head, also people who take it
Taking it in the arm means "obligation" but in the forehead it means "belief". Also people can become saints by their head being CUT OFF for worshiping Jesus Christ.
So those who had the mark in their head can become resurrected if they become martyrs. It is the only way to remove that mark.

Something like this may be available during the tribulation or shortly afterwards because of people removing the mark of the beast. God gives mercy and love.

He's right. OP is an attention-seeking tranny that has been a fagging around this board for a while. These /generals/ are fucking cancer, and really got out of hand once /trump/ general became a thing. Now, everything has to be a /general/, and since it's "general" of course there must be a thread about it at all times, regardless of whether or not it should be on the board. OP has been told multiple times to go back to /hist/, but apparently he has a bad reputation there too.
Liam Torres
I have no problem with Trump Generals because they have good memes and good energy.
But I agree, the Orthodox have been attacking regularly at Catholics who generally do not provoke anyone.
I am getting sick of it

Levi Hill
So you wanted me to prove that I wasn't the LARPing aforementioned OP who's been acting a lot like yourself (schismatic) in other threads? I'm pretty sure it was.Anyways, I've provided you with Evidence hereYet, you still refuse to believe. Cognitive Dissonance, insulting, and referring to stories of crossing the bosphorus strait are in no way leading to a unification of churches. I'm sorry to say it. This, also being extratopical, aside from the initial point you asked me to prove, and just opportune moments for you to attack me and the Orthodox faith. I'm spreading the word of Christ now. You should join the Orthodox Church and forget about the Catholic church. Schismatics like ((((ITw7Ud+4)))) live up to Peter's idiocy, and the brutishness of the Catholic church. Sorry for my rhetoric, but sperging Papists make me use this type of language.

Do you know what converting entails? Do I need to visit with a priest every week for a year or something?? Since Orthodox doesn't have RCIA..
Official conversion requires you to subscribe to the church and get baptized, but its recommended that you go through every other mystery as well.
Aaron Barnes
Fool do you not know that God is above all and there is only one Lord and one master? Do you not chant day and night "on earth as it is in heaven?" You are the ones who are lying in Hippocratic.

roman catholic papacy = the little horn of Daniel's sea beast
>Daniel 7: "After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: >it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had >ten horns. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns >plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things...Thus he said, The fourth >beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, >and break it in pieces. And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be >diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the >most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
>the beast represents the roman empire >10 horns The roman empire in Europe was divided into 10 kingdoms after it collapses >the little horn that pops up and removes 3 horns and exalts itself above all The pope came from romanism and claimed to be god on earth, and often exiled/punished kings >changing times and laws romanism changed the sabboth from saturday to sunday, pagan holidays, added laws forbidding mirage, (which the nt condemns)

The Antiochius Epiphanes argument is pretty convincing. I know I'm going to be trashed for suggesting it's not prophesying a future event.
William Phillips

Iranaeus said he is not the antichrist nor that it is to be rome.
Jordan Taylor
We will not, however, incur the risk of pronouncing positively as to the name of Antichrist; for if it were necessary that his name should be distinctly revealed in this present time, it would have been announced by him who beheld the apocalyptic vision. For that was seen no very long time since, but almost in our day, towards the end of Domitian's reign.
He knew Polycarp who knew John the apostle. They were both premillenialists.

First of all, the only person searching for answers should be you. I can tell you are a lost soul, attacking the true faith. >muh schismatics >he thinks he's the true faith XD Where does the bible say there should be a "pope"? If only a patriarch ahead of the others. But that sentiment is not to be taken literally. He is the equal and above all others. >equal and above The Patriarch is merely a spiritual title discerning a head bishop of a diocese. Now to have the audacity to claim me a heretic, a schismatic, and/or a nonbeliever and using unrelated bible verses attributing me as a wearer of the mark of the beast is erroneous. Those who curse their brothers cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven. Lets also not forget the whore of Babylon: the Pope sitting upon his false throne in the Vatican. You are sinful for believing one man has control over the entire faith, then claiming said faith to be true.

Typical Greeks Typical Philistines. Wanting to rebel against Rome as usual, not wanting to be told what to do but to be his own master over his own plot of land, with no one to answer to .

ah yes, compare man to God. Compare mortal kings to an immortal God. And, PATER stems form the Greek word for FATHER: Πατέρας or Patéras. So this PETER argument is destroyed.
