This is an anti Baptist and Reformed thread now

You've given up knowledge, you don't have a leg to stand on

They're literally cancer anyway.

You have nothing, I got history. Explain this

How do you know know you have history

I agree as an ex Calvinist

The question is for you, not me. I only show how stupid your religion is for the sake of reason and Kek

You were never among us 1John 2:15

God made it so according to Calvinism

Can you even know your reasoning is valid

Hello m8s

So what

Aren't there multiple other these threads still up? I know you love your shitposting but you shouldn't make a new thread when the old ones aren't dead yet.

Lutheran MO Synod here. Pastor gave a good sermon on not losing faith in Christ, despite all the hardships in life internally and externally. How was everyone else's Sunday?

Great mine was about listening to the Holy Spirit

No, this is a continuation of the last Christian general, which reached post limit

Rename that file now.

Pretty good, my priest gave a homily about how the forces of darkness now try to chip away at us through appeals to "get with the times".

I just want to post this if nothing else.

Thank you for proving me right

I do. But you don't because presuppositialism is pseudophilosophy

Why don't you go to a board where this wouldn't be off-topic bullshit if you want to make these threads? You could havr a wonderful little circlejerk over on

Everyone has presupositions

As my religion always says, in the world not of the world. Most of the degenerate trash happening these days are mere fads so no sweat.

Christian threads have always had a place on Sup Forums.

Oooh, nice. I can very much respect when a pastor stays old school, as the "get with the times" mantra is nothing but code for "compromise everything" which the fucking Episcopal church did in spades. What denomination, if I may ask? And I

I would serve a Russian Tsar, as the only Christian King appointed by God.

I'm asking so what, if you're worried about going to hell, then repent and put your trust in Christ

I'm the OP

>Most of the degenerate trash happening these days are mere fads so no sweat.

Indeed, but what irks me the most is that a lot of churches reflect this degeneracy, it's really sad.

Bleh, should have checked the ID.

I don't know about that but I do appreciate Nicolas' resistance of Bolsheviks which was ultimately an anti-religious group

Reminder these are Sup Forums heritage threads

When Sup Forums was /n/ it had Wednesday and Sunday church threads
When it was /new/ it had nightly ossuary thread (rolled over into early Sup Forums)
And before the the Sup Forums harbor attacks and a little after it had Christian generals

archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/24577193/#24577193

There was even Sup Forums's old soccer team (look at their names) aka our old memes

Peter and Catherine were both awful and enemies of the Church, but overall I support monarchy as well.

anyone else listen to james white here

ossuary threads were my favourite, so comfy.

Presup apologetics is shit. In fact it's so shit we can use it to defend the divine inspiration of Harry potter

Yep, he did great in the Silverman debate

Under your framework NOBODY can do that. Stop contradicting yourself loser

Would you do a professional debate on the existence of hoggwarts

He did shit! History proves him wrong

No, just as i don't do professional debates with hackpologetics

Insults wow you are low

For a former Calvinist, you really don't know our theology, those of the elect will repent and put their trust in Christ. The natural man doesn't care and scoffs

More like Shit White. Shit is the only thing he spews

That's just your presupositionb

They were so nice
I miss Skullcross
Last I heard he joined a monastery
Good for him

I do. I simply state the logical stance of Calvinism. Too bad if you can't handle the fact that you are contradicting yourself everytime you ask someone to trust in Christ since that is God doing it, not you. Stupid

I have the authority of academia to prove my point. He doesn't. Stay mad loser

i sincerely hope that nobody converted to orthodoxy because of this board

you know the russian government is jewing the alt-right to make us more obedient to russian interests, don't you? converting people to (russian) orthodoxy is part of their plan.

don't believe me? compare these two videos; one was made by the russian government, the other made by an anonymous youtuber with suspiciously similar content & animation quality:

youtube.com/watch?v=aEaw6ktxg-8

youtube.com/watch?v=K63PN2bxAXE

tl;dr russian subverters are shilling orthodoxy on this board to jew the alt-right. convert to protestantism to avoid being jewed

thanks for your meaningful response

Your arguing hyper Calvinism, the greatest gift, besides my salvation, God has given me, is the fact I don't know who the elect are

Here, academia proves him wrong on sola ScriptUra in the early church

I'm probably the the no. 1 Orthodox shill of Sup Forums, and I'm Greek Orthodox

Which Peter?
And if you support monarchy get the fuck out of this country, go to England or some hole like that. Why do you stay here if you want a monarch to worship?

Ethnically Greek, or that's the orthodox you grew up in?

That's normal Calvinism and fact. With calvinist predestination all notion of sentience and autonomy goes out of the window. Only God has it and he controls all beings. Hence it follows that God made me 'trust' him, not me. I am not responsible

Peter the Great

You don't think this country would be better of Queen Elizabeth administrated it? I don't see any point to moving to England here, since the monarch over there only has marginal political power compared to the prime minister and parliament.

Neither, I'm Celtic-Nordic and a convert.

how important are denominations really? Isn't the whole sola scriptura stuff means that denominations aren't that important?

Okay then quit whining about it,

Each Protestant denomination has their own take on what Scripture means.

Gotcha. What drew you to Greek Orthodox, or did that happen to be the closest Orthodox church near you?

Ultimately no, as long as you put your trust in Christ alone for your salvation. Denomination is a minuscule issue

No. I'll continue exposing the absurdity of Calvinism

>current year
>getting on your knees for muslim cock
GOOD GOYIM
JESUS WOULD BE SO PROUD

...

But all non cults are considered Christian in the Protestant circle

The Catholic ones do as well. Last time I listened to an Orthodox service, it was pretty much everything I've ever heard in a Roman Catholic church, right down do the one holy catholic and apostolic church.

Seems like we all have our various minor or maybe less minor disagreements.

>Peter the Great
How was Peter the Great an enemy of the Church?
>You don't think this country would be better of Queen Elizabeth administrated it?
Hells no. No government could be improved by putting a monarch at the top of it.
>since the monarch over there only has marginal political power compared to the prime minister and parliament.
I'm sure there's some shithole with a nice powerful that you can take your monarchist ass to. We don't need monarchist scum like you in America.

I think that depends on which Protestants denomination you ask, they widely vary. Certainly Episcopalians consider Mormons to be Christians, since they accept Mormon baptism as valid

God has split personality disorder according to you

Why do you care, eat drink and be merry, your just an evolved water bag in your world view

Orthodox here. Interesting link.

I've had the intention to go to my first orthodox liturgy for the past month but I keep putting off cuz I backslide with porn/masturbation

I'll be aiming for next Sunday again

If you read the entirety of Orthodox liturgy of all days (the sum of Orthodox dogma), you'd find quite a few differences. The meat of the matter isn't different, it's more the stuff that changes that is.

As a former Episcopal, I don't consider them Christians anymore. Anglicans, however, are still fine.

I hate Calvinism and I want to destroy it

There are bare essentials
Jesus must be both God and man
Trinity is a must
You must put your trust in Christ alone for your salvation

Of course you do, cause you know it's right and you hate God

Peter was a demonically possessed Freemason who physically attacked priests whenever he could and launched a campaign or persecution against Old Believers, who he necessitated by imposing aggressive reforms.

I am a mere mechanical puppet according to your theology. God is simply controlling me and making me hate him. I have no volition according to Calvinism

>How was Peter the Great an enemy of the Church?
Ended the Patriarch of the Church, installed a synod that had to report to him, and made immense effort to Protestantize the Church. Read Ways of Russian Theology (a history of the Russian Church). Ask any member of the clergy how they feel about Peter the Great, and you will not get a positive response. Nicholas II is a saint, but Peter the Great was not good.

>I'm sure there's some shithole with a nice powerful that you can take your monarchist ass to.
They're generally totalitarian. Monarchy is authoritarian, but not totalitarian (in fact, totalitarianism generally sprouts up with the end of monarchy, as in Germany, China and Russia).

I hope God changes your mind, and that you come to repentance and truth, I'm gonna pray for you

God has a split personality. To quench his anger, he beats himself aka his own son up!

New Oxford Annotated Bible vs HarperCollins Study Bible

I have been taking an interest in academic Bible study for some time now, and I keep seeing the both of these recommended for their mainstream scholarly commentary.

Can anyone help me decide between the two? I am very racist and sexist, and I hear that New Oxford Annotated is "inclusive to people of color" and "gender neutral". Is this true for both of them? Is there a study Bible that keeps homosexuality as the primary reason Sodom was destroyed?

Episcopalians are Anglicans, they are the only Anglicans in fact, in America, in Communion with the Church of England.

Not all Protestants would agree these are required. Unitarians point out that the term "Trinity" appears nowhere in Scripture,.

Blessed be your soul, Constantine. May you always keep the faith.

I live in the Western tradition where we regard the state as something different after having lived through a time when there was no state but only the Church. Ironically, it could be that the opposite from the East will be an anchor next time around.

Here, Ignatius of Antioch disproves Calvinism

Unitarians are not Christians

I don't know enough about the second one, but don't go with the former. The commentary may be good, but the translation is so awful that even the appendix lambastes it.

Or atleast not Protestants

So are Calvinists. Predestination is gnostic

On whose authority?

Anglican churches have actually begun to spring up in the USA, due to the Episcopal's actions and decisions in the past decade, and there was even a huge split in regards to Episcopal churches formally leaving and becoming recognized as Anglican. The Episcopal church really tried its damnedest to monetarily destroy the effort too.

I'm praying for you :)

Then neither are baptists.
