The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Hey guys, kinda new here. What do you think of Unitarians? I go to a Unitarian Church and consider myself a Christian. My beliefs are rooted in skepticism though but I do believe in God, and I believe Jesus was the Son of God in the sense that God destined him to be the greatest moral teacher in history and for his death to be an example to us all.

I do read the Bible but I take Biblical Criticism seriously so I don't generally hold it to be infallible or anything silly like that. I try to interpret it within it's historical and cultural context such as the myths of the Torah and the Greek Philosophical elements in the New Testament. Before I used to be a Fundamentalist but I snapped out of it a long time ago and I feel reading the Bible critically actually makes it more interesting. I hope you guys are open to people as diverse as me though. :)

>Are Unitarians allowed on this board?

No, because they're fundamentally walking out of the Abrabramic/Apostolic teaching of God and the Nicaea creed, which this board abides by.

>Are Unitarians allowed on this board?

Yes, but they're not considered Christians here (only those who adhere to the Nicene Creed are) as per the rules.

No, you are not allowed on this board.

Are you allowed on the board? Of course, if you bring actual conversations and don't just shitpost you can be here all you want

Are you Christian? I don't believe so, anyone who denies the divinity of Christ and the nicene creed is non-Christian

If you want to propagate that nonsense then you aren't.

Literally what? If you're a prot that believes in Sola Scriptura what do you actually believe in? We aren't called to be tolerant, or merely "nice", we're called to be men of God, and to keep His law

>I hope you guys are open to people as diverse as me though. :)

I really can't tell if this is bait or if you're just very lost, if it is bait then good job big guy

No, the bare minimum for being accepted as Christian here is to believe in the Holy Trinity.

Huh? What does sola scriptura have to do with anything? Why do you people bring this up every thread?


195e5d  No.715607

Jesus Christ is God.

God is three persons.

If you deny this, you either

>didn’t read the Bible

Or

>you don’t have faith in what God has revealed, and you cannot be counted righteous

All are welcome here, but we can’t call you a Christian if you don’t believe that Jesus is the only way to heaven, and that He’s the Son of God.

I bet your "church" hangs a rainbow flag and a sign that says refugees welcome. Disgraceful.

>>715604

His church is Prot and accepts Sola scriptura right? It then says that Scripture is not infallible. Therefore it has no moral authority, because it has rejected everything but scripture, and has also rejected scripture. That's all I meant, I wasn't even saying anything attacking SS big guy

"Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomese, and whoever welcomese welcomes the one who sent me. For whoever is the least among all of you, he is he greatest."

"But master, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, amd we tried to stop him because he doesn't accompany us."

"Do not stop him for whoever is not against you is for you."

Unitarians were never sola scriptura. They were rationalists from the start


e1042b  No.715649

>>715643

Letting the little children be welcomed into churches that openly accept Gay marriage and deny the divinity of christ doesn't seem like a great idea man. They're not for us at all, they're for modernity and a perversion of God's law


2b0e54  No.715656

I mean, you're not arguing with me, man, that's what Jesus said. You're arguing with Him.

>implying they do anythkng in His name

Are you even trying? The Jesus they invented is only a man. If they don't worship Jesus, they don't follow Jesus. I'm honestly shocked this thread is still up with such blasphemy and heresy.


df62cc  No.715679

>>715656

That's like sayig that Muslims are followers of Jesus because they think hes a pretty cool guy,

Unitarians recognize a figure called Jesus, but the thing they call Jesus looks nothing like the Jesus of Christianity

>Many will come saying Master Master, and I will turn and say, depart from me you never knew me


e1042b  No.715688

>>715656

They deny the divinity of Him. Therefore they are against him, and do nothing in His name. I don't see how that's difficult to grasp

Maybe other translations are different but he says they are "for us" not "with us". For us, as in for us to use. You're short sighted.


563427  No.715692

You're not christian because you do not believe Jesus Christ is God. The very minimum to be considered Christian is to believe in the trinity.

You are welcome to post here but you are not christian.


40d252  No.715694

>>715690

>For us, as in for us to use.

And how would we "use" heretical teachings?

>You're short sighted

You're trying too hard to force comparison of a situation to scripture either out of benefit of doubt, or ignorance. The man casting out demons in His name actually believed Jesus was who He said he was, which is why he could excorcise.

How do you know this? I am genuinely not aware how you know this.

Because it makes no sense to cast out deamons in the name of some guy or in the name of some prophet, you would only cast out deamons in the name of God.

And this is where Unitarians lose, they believe Jesus was inspired by God, not that he was God

Also god says that we can know them by their fruits and we've all seen the fruits that congregations like Unitarians bear

Unitarians are welcome here in the same way atheists, Muslims, and other non-christians are welcome here. That is welcome to particpate and learn, not welcome to spread and promote their apostate modernist progressiveism they try and pass off as Christianity

>My beliefs are rooted in skepticism though but I do believe in God, and I believe Jesus was the Son of God in the sense that God destined him to be the greatest moral teacher in history and for his death to be an example to us all.

A Christian is someone who acknowledges that Christ is God. Otherwise Muslims would be Christian as well.

> I do read the Bible but I take Biblical Criticism seriously

Like patristic commentaries (that even btfo those modernist ideias about the bible) or the criticism of tiggers that never when to church and think theyre smart?

>I don't generally hold it to be infallible or anything silly like that.

Lol are you kidding me? Then how do you know what Christ said was really what you think he said? Other you accept what the Bible and the Tradition says about him or you're just taking guesses in the dark

>I try to interpret it within it's historical and cultural context such as the myths of the Torah and the Greek Philosophical elements in the New Testament.

What myths? The ones other civilizations borrowed from the Jews? Lmao. I'd like those faggot to prove me those myths didn't come from the first humans that were actually faithful to God but ok kid. Besides there's no myths nor Greek shit in the NT. The Greek stuff are adaptations of the Greek philosophy to Christianity, in an attempt to make that shit agree with the faith.

>I used to be a Fundamentalist but I snapped out of it a long time ago and I feel reading the Bible critically actually makes it more interesting.

From the frying pan into the fire

>I hope you guys are open to people as diverse as me though.

There's no diversity in Christ.

"Jesus Christ, yesterday, today and tomorrow. The same forever"

Its laughable that you still call yourself Christ. Best case scenario you are a deist you likes the Jesus portrayed by the Illuminism.

At least Muslims believe jesus was an holy profet from God.

At least Jews believe that their scriptures are inspired

At least any religious man believes in a supernatural world.

You are nothing. Only a glorified atheist.

Repent brother before it's too late.

Don't take this as an insult.

Just read the history of the Early Church and you'll know why Christians are Christian.

t. Catholic Physicist (and I say this so that you now that it's possible to be a scientist and believe in a supernatural world, materialism is a shitty philosophy nothing more.)
