What's the Catholic take on the odd F-bomb?

Do you swear /Christian/?

ab01fd No.536979

Catholic take is no saying words in a imaginary unbiblical dictionary of forbidden words. Generally but not limited to, piss, shit, fuck, hell, crap, ass, bitch, and cunt. But this changes as societal mores/morals changes. You can still swear/give oaths as a catholic though.

My personal take is that you should not give any oaths/forswear thyself at all because of Matthew 5:33-36

>Again, ye have heard that is hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

>But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:

>Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

>Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. matthew 5:37. Therefore we need to define profanity since it will be used here. Let's see ezekiel 22:26

>Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewd difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from mmy sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

>have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane

To "profaned mine holy things" is to have "put no difference between the holy and profane".

Was raised to detest cussing but nonetheless I always hated the sound of it. I think I only used a bad word once, when I was 11, during a school field trip. Anywho, innocence is a virtue that we're told to preserve and cultivate and that includes purity in speech as well

Probably not a sin if fitting, doesn't give scandal and isn't disrespectful (disproportionately - Jesus referred to the Pharisees disrespectfully, but it was fitting and useful) or hateful.

Not a Catholic but I'd like to share some bible verses regarding our verbal communication.

(Matthew 12:33-36 KJV)

Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

(Ephesians 4:29-32 KJV)

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

(Colossians 3:5-8 KJV)

Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.

(James 3:5-10 KJV)

Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

tldr; becareful what you say lest the Lord judge you for such. There's no list of words not to use.

Another thing I forgot to define is cursing see Numbers 5:21

>Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the women, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath mong they people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell;

Another is in Job 3:1-8

>AFTER this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.

>And Job spake, and said,

>Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived.

>Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.

>Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the bleackness of the day terrify it.

>As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.

>Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein.

>Let them curse it that curse tha day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.

It seems to curse is to wish evil upon something or someone as Job does. For more examples see deutoronomy 27.

This is a /Christian/ board, so fuck no.

But in all seriousness, I've seen some in the past who make the argument not to use "Goddamn" mostly because it uses God name in vain. I don't understand this since if you're really angry at something, wouldn't calling the damnation of God upon it be appropriate?

ab01fd No.537335

>>537300

Using "Goddamn" isn't taking God's name in vain, because taking his name in vain is in reference to how in marriage you take on your spouses name.

The word you are looking for is profaning His holy name by treating it as unholy or base/common. See ezekiel 22:26

>Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewd difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

>have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane

God puts His name in high reverence, so don't treat it as base/common/profaning it. Now imagine what you are doing by profaning His word/scripture that is higher then His name Psalms 138:2.

>I will return if I am able to work a few things out.

I will return if God puts my wrongful persecution to rest, keeps these evil people persecuting me away from me, and restoring my health so that I know He is faithful and true and not a false spirit or rogue spirit of Jewry. I have had non-Christian spirits tell me that the God of Abraham is a God whom seeks to "get over" on people, and that is the reason for much trouble in my life since I have wholeheartedly devoted myself to Christendom but I keep finding that God is not here to do what I need before ascending to the next life and I fear God is showing favoritism to those lusting towards evil acts against me such as law enforcement and the Roman Catholic institution, perhaps some rogue corporations.

God has laid an existential burden upon me which has ensured that I was a satanist my whole life. I've only been a believer for a few years. I need God to take away my existential burden he placed on me before my death for me to ascend into the Kingdom of Heaven and not ally myself with Satan, as I view Satan to be more just than God based on my experiences as a believer in Jesus.


564519 No.537366

Your authority means nothing to me if you cannot manifest that authority in real life.

If your only power is 'covert warfare/covert attacks' (like if you are a Jesuit) then you are a false worker, and your authority is null until you repent and do what is right.

>but I have been hurt by God

See Hebrews 12:5-10

>And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speakth unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

>For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth

>If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

>But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

>Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

>For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

<God has allowed humanity to hurt me so I left the faith.

See Hebrews 12:11

>Now no chasteneing for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous; nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Also see James 1:13

>Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

Endure chastening. Even if it feels grevious. also still not sure if shill/robot.

As to whether or not I am a shill or a robot.

Good fruits v.s. Evil fruits…

Do I produce good fruit or evil fruit. I maintain that through the honesty and integrity of what I am saying, I produce good fruit.

I can tell you I'm not a shill or a robot, I also war against shills and robots IRL.

The Bible tells us to believe all things, and to take love to the extreme.

Imagine somebody who would still take love to the extreme by loving the Roman Catholic Church after all of the evil the Roman Catholic Church is guilty of.

So, in the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of God. I am not a shill or a robot….nor do I represent any affiliations other than myself, and my honest desire to love and worship God and His Son in peace.

I want to love God so much but I can't love Him properly when the Jesuit Pope of Rome is driving a wedge in between me and God and exalting his institution over the face of the Earth, collaborating with U.S. law enforcement to commit sins against Christians.

I also can't love God properly when God is not answering my prayers that need to be answered before I can return to the faith.

Right now the Christian religion, to me, just looks like some sort of military construct.

Repent, those are Satans angels, don't pray to them;

(Exodus 20:3 KJV) Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

(John 14:15 KJV) If ye love me, keep my commandments.

(John 14:21 KJV) He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

Your heart is not counseled with God, ask God to come into your life and to keep unclean spirits away from you.

(Isaiah 30:1 KJV) 1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:

>>537365

>I will return if God puts my wrongful persecution to rest, keeps these evil people persecuting me away from me

(Proverbs 16:7 KJV) When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.

>I keep finding that God is not here to do what I need

Are your needs worldly? Because Satan has dominion of the Earth until Jesus returns.

(John 15:19 KJV) If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

(Revelation 12:7-9 KJV) And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
