All three of you could be correct and here is why. Adam, in the day he was created, was in the image of God. What does that mean? In Genesis 5:1-2

>THIS is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;

>Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

Adam and Eve in the day they were created were called Adam, since its like marriage. The wife takes the name of the husband in the marriage. So going back to Genesis 1:27-28

>So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

So God created Adam and Eve, calling them Adam and then gave the order in verse 28

>And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

He ordered them being a single unit, in the day they were created and called Adam, to be fruitful and multiply. That is what the image of God is, being able be fruitful and multiply as a single unit. God does not require a wife to reproduce/create things. Nor did Adam in the day they were created as God ordered Adam to be fruitful and multiply the very next verse. But shortly thereafter when Eve was taken out of Adam was Adam no longer able to be fruitful and multiply by himself like God can, therefore was no longer in the image of God. See Matthew 19:3-6

>The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

>And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at thePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

You keep talking about Hebrew but far more relevant to Christianity is the gnostic Σοφία

Can the holy ghost fullfill the requirements of being female?

To be female you need to be able to bear children, have female genetics, female bodily structure. Since the holy ghost is not made of flesh, he can obviously not be female.

Really good report

>If you were around in the glory days when flags were enabled on /christian/ you know how fun it was.

You're so blessedly right. This is the primary reason why I mourned the loss of 8chan more than anything. Just being on there helped me learn my own theology.

>It's worth our deliberate action to preserve that.

Amen!

>>11483

>>11456

Amen

We'll see how it plays out

>Please pray for me to find the truth of the Godhead.

Then I will pray for you to learn about the Council of Nicaea

The aspects of Catholicism that are from Roman spirituality and religious outlook mainly have to do with latin theological leanings and the Roman mind's conception of the episcopate, with things like the "Pontifex Maximus" being particularly illustrative of this current.

I think you would be at home in the apostolic Orthodoxy from the original Churches of the Pentarchy, which are the original five apostolic Churches of the Uniate Church, now split between Rome and the 4 others, Antioch, Alexandria, Constantinople, and Jerusalem. The Roman Church has arguably drifted, but Apostolic tradition has been maintained.

If you are caught up in the theological debates of the highest in the Church you are probably getting in your own way and should just focus on worshipping the Lord on the Sabbath and repenting of your sins. May the Holy Spirit witness to you the truth of all things in Christ

>>12942

To be clear, you cannot "convert". You inherit a tradition, or you adopt traditional forms that are spiritually expedient, but you cannot "become" Orthodox or Catholic by choice but must be initiated by proper priesthood authority, in the same way that you cannot be initiated into Protestantism without first publicly declaring belief in Jesus.

can't wait for brain transplants, you guys really need to think w mind instead of knoweldges

but maybe religions will already be a past thing at the time ? I heard safe school was a common thing now

I consider sedevacantists to be the real catholics.

How many times have people tried to kill Christianity over the last 2000 years?

Nobody can kill Christianity. Not boomers. Not communists. Not Diocletan. Not even Christians themselves.

Because this religion is the only one that is from God. And God promised that this church will prevail against the gates of hell even in the tribulations of the end times

>>12216

Good optimism but the "gates of hell will not prevail" passage doesn't refer to people practicing Christianity at all times, it means Christians conquer death via Jesus

>>12216

>How many times have people tried to kill Christianity over the last 2000 years?

The true religion is nearly as old as the universe, from Abel onwards. It's closer to 7,000 years old.

>>12153

as Ortho I agree, with EastCaths trying to fulfill the spirit of it all but the Pope has got to go tbh

I'm old world orthodox and deeply want to become a priest. However i fear my way of understanding the Bible will eventually cause people around me to view me as another sectarian

>>12876

Just go for it. Orthodoxy has a lot of variety.

>>12885

Indeed. It's been roughly a year ever since i had left the monastery i was at and i've been doing a lot of research on the theological history of christianity besides learning biblical hebrew and koine greek.

I wasn't so sure at the time of writing that post, but now i can say for a certain, i am definately going to end up starting my own sect. Not that its my goal, but its what my current conclusions will inevitably lead to. All i have left now is continue my study and pray to the Almighty for his guidance

>>12892

"sects" are a profane invention of the Protestant world and have no place if one remains true to Orthodoxy, the Orthodoxy which is the eternal truth of the living God. What exactly are you saying distinguishes you from the mother Church in the minds of congregants?

Do you aim to be within Communion and in recognition of the priesthood given to the apostles and passed down through the centuries? Or instead will this be a closed communion of your own congregants? I ask none of these with a particular answer from you in mind, I am curious.

>>10880

Is it of the Spirit of the Lord to remark at how your own doctrine, sparkling clean, is firsthand, while your digressers all simply have bunk doctrine? Meanwhile the spirit of your words is not contrite, you know nothing and should act like it

>>10946

No, it isn't. The Bible was canonized by the one Holy Apostolic Catholic Church.

prots just dig in their heels and repeat scripture scripture scripture because they are all literally North Americans or anglos who reduce scripture to a codex of "divine info" and care about things like "infallibility" rather than singing the scriptures within the very life you lead, as if the spiritual knowledge resembles the erudition of "scripture readers" who digest only what they deem to be sophisticated enough to be obscure and religiously fanciful.

notice all those who constantly lambast and correct others with "scriptural truth" seldom have their own constructive topics of fruit produced from their apparently superior digestion of prophecy and word.

love one another, and do not speak irreverently of your brother, but be reconciled to him

>the word in the shema is echad. it does not mean "one" in a rabbinic unitarian sense. maimonides himself in the 12th century deliberately uses yacheed instead, because he know's his own bible doesnt say what he wants it to say.

I don't think your bible says what you want it to say. Your argument assumes my argument–correctly–because of how obvious it is and how obvious yours isn't.

>why not give the video a chance? it might change your mind. it wasnt until the 3rd century thr rabbis really started hammering down on multiplicity within the Godhead. they were reacting to christianity.

Needless to say I'm not convinced, but I'll watch your video.

>>12624

those quotes have nothing to do with the Binatarian tradition in early Israeli religiosity, don't be dense

>>12688

just stop arguing bro

It's wine. Nobody even knew how to create unfermented grape juice until the 1800's. Grapes start fermenting immediately and it takes modern technology to prevent it from happening so that non-alcoholic juice can be made.

Wine. Obviously! Wine is symbolic of maturity, and Sabbath rest (that's why Noah drinks it after he comes out of the Ark. The Flood is creation backwards, a global baptism. Just as after God creates He rests, so Noah rests after the Flood). This is particularly because children can eat grapes and drink grape juice, but only adults can appreciate the taste of wine. Priests in the Tabernacle/Temple and Nazarites are not allowed to drink wine because the Sabbath for Israel has not come yet. It comes in Jesus, and that's why we drink wine in the Eucharist.

Proverbs 31:6

Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, And wine unto the bitter in soul:

The "strong drink" has been rendered varyingly as mead in the Septuagint and as "sicera" in the Vulgate; elsewhere in the Septuagint it is also rendered as 'síkera'. Perhaps a fizzy beverage like a beer or a cider could have been what was had in mind as opposed to something like distilled spirits which didn't spread throughout the world until around the High Middle Ages; but perhaps it might have also been any other sort of strong fermented concoction.

>>12463

But that passage is clearly referring not to those who drink wine or eat meat, but specifically to those who do so IN EXCESS. The passage does not forbid drinking wine, or eating meat for that matter, as a whole, it merely discourages one from being a drunk or glutton, or associating with those who are. Also

>Firearms aren't just for war

Nobody suggested they were.

>they're no more masculine than pepper spray or a pocket knife.

When has it ever been normal for a woman to carry a pocket knife?

>Imagine thinking women protecting themselves from being culturally enriched by Jamal and Ahmed is heresy.

If your wife or daughter has to protect HERSELF, then you are a failure as a man. That is your responsibility.

The Bible is a perfectly moral guide, and the quran is evil.

Posing with a US flag and a firearm is demonstrating the US's unique right to keep and bear arms, not a threat of aggression.

I know you're baiting though

>the masonic USA flag

There is nothing Masonic about any symbolism of the US flag, which by the way represents the people of the nation and not the state.

What spam are you referring to? I don't see anything disruptive on the catalog myself, just a dead advert thread and two JW-tier threads that have been BTFO'ed.

Rats, I stumbled upon Christ channel a few months ago but never really checked it out, was looking for it today but sad to see I'm a few weeks late to the party. Any chance of it ever going up again?

>holy scriptures are what were inspired, written in Greek

The holy scriptures were written in Hebrew (OT) and Aramaic (NT).

the word petros is the masculine form of the word petra (rock)

it would not be appropiate for Jesus to give St. Peter a feminine name, so in that sentence he says it clearly: you are the rock and upon this rock I will build my church.

>>12724

Jesus is the head of all churches. Peter was a bishop of a church with Jesus above him. See it as Jesus is the big rock, Peter(and any other bishop/pastor) is the smaller rock.

Not OP, but the Kike god is indeed an evil lesser demon. We Christians are the children of the One True God and are superior to him.

>50. Jesus said, "If they say to you, 'Where have you come from?' say to them, 'We have come from the light, from the place where the light came into being by itself, established [itself], and appeared in their image.'

>77. Jesus said, "I am the light that is over all things. I am all: from me all came forth, and to me all attained.

>83. Jesus said, "Images are visible to people, but the light within them is hidden in the image of the Father's light. He will be disclosed, but his image is hidden by his light."
