Heretical trash

>>773606

Not only heretical, but Steven Anderson of all people was able to explain (explain well, no usual stupidity) how bad it was

>>773659

Heresy of the highest order.

Should not only be avoided, but all copies available should be destroyed.

>interracial couple

I'll pass

>>773799

The black woman is not married to him…she’s God the Father.

Also, discarding a movie just because of a possible interracial couple (and not because of false representation of a people seems a bit too much.

>>773746

That’s not the best argument tbh…

>>773807

>she’s God the Father

>she's

>>773807

>>773833

If we're talking about shitposts with female God, is it she or She?

>>773807

Referring to God as a 'she' should be a bannable offense

What are some actually good /christian/-approved Christian kinos?

Besides Andrei Rublev, of course.

>>773807

>God is a black woman

Even worse than interracial crap

>>773606

Good movie. Watch it. Why is literally everything heresy to people on here?

>>773846

The Mission and The Passion of the Christ are terrific films.

>>773847

That was all right… I enjoyed the underlying message. I'm guessing normies would've hated it if not for the over-the-top violence and diverse cast.

>>773873

The Father and Holy Spirit being portrayed as female is heresy, though. What's your denomination, out of curiosity? Polite sage for doublepost.

>>773877

I’m a Protestant. I imagine you’re not suprised, are you.

>God being a woman

Wait I thought the point of making Him a woman was to show how He can shape shift into someone who can help the protagonist. Like He changes forms many different times throughout the movie. Idk if it’s this movie or another but I honestly not gonna debate about it so believe what you want

>>773881

God the Father has no form, thus He cannot "shape shift".

> believe what you want

I will believe what the Church has affirmed, and part of that is that God the Father isn't a black woman in some shed.

>>773881

>I’m a Protestant. I imagine you’re not suprised, are you

Can't say I am; I was expecting that or "agnostic"… no offense intended.

>Wait I thought the point of making Him a woman was to show how He can shape shift into someone who can help the protagonist

God the Father could lead a black woman into the protagonist's life, however the Father Himself cannot shape shift into a human. I take it you're very new to the faith?

>Idk if it’s this movie or another but I honestly not gonna debate about it so believe what you want

I believe what the Bible says, which isn't "the Father and Holy Spirit are women", "God doesn't judge you", and other heresies promoted by The Shack. Don't allow modernist churches or secular culture to lead you astray, friend.

>Father Himself cannot shape shift into a human

Will need source.

Based because it's not racist. You should marry a negress or a monkey so you're not a speciest.

>>773881

I refuse to believe that you're a real person.

>>773881

Tell us the denomination

>>773953

God is Father because he is Our Father. It is the role we are meant to know Him by. We are meant to know Christ as Our Husband, us being the Bridegroom. It's not wrong to recognize the Godly in all men, but to say that God the Father is God the Mother is misguided heresy.

>>773957

Sorry, I meant to type "Bridegroom" instead of "Husband" and "Bride" instead of "Bridegroom. It should read; We are meant to know Christ as Our Bridegroom, us being the Bride.

>>773953

God is the supremely Masculine. He's more masculine than any mere male could ever be, by virtue of being the Lord and Father of everything. The notion of gender without sex is somewhat lost on an English-speaker, where most things without a sex are referred to in the neuter, but anyone who's ever studied a romance language should understand what I'm on about: everything has masculine or feminine qualities. For example, the sky is masculine and the sea is feminine.

In any relationship between God and humans, God will take on the masculine role and humans must take on the feminine role. This is to say that humans must always submit to God's mastery and lordship over us, and that we must never ever presume to try and reverse this relationship. To propose that God could ever be feminine is to propose that God has something to submit to, which is a grave error. In reality, God is so masculine that everything else in all of Creation is feminine in comparison to Him. This is why God always refers to Himself in the masculine, this is why every Old Testament apparition of Him portrays Him as looking like a male, and this is why He was incarnate as a male when God the Son became man.

>interracial

>>773953

From what you said about Book of Eli, it would be nice to have a pinned thread for this nice tid bit of info.

>>773953

Not once in the entire Bible does God take a feminine form. He is called He for a reason.

>heresy

Well it all depends, doesn't it?

Since heresy is defined as going against a doctrine of a given denomination, whether it is heretical depends on what denomination you are.

All of the heresies that "The Shack" is accused of are perfectly valid in at least one Christian denomination.

Universal reconciliation is a valid belief for modern Christian Universalists.

Denying free will is a valid belief for Calvinists.

Sola Fide is a valid belief for many Protestant denominations.

Many denomination reject the Penal Substitution theory of Atonement

The Shack has all these "heresies", but no one denomonation believes all these things. Which is why a Christian from any given denomination is going to find something wrong with the book.

>Seething Catholics in 3, 2, 1…

>>774114

Any follower of Christ would be outraged at this watered down, blasphemous, feel-good the-Bible-means-whatever-you-want-it-mean false gospel.

I know, I'm more just poking fun at Catholics having a monopoly on calling things Heresy. His definition of heresy is correct though and the movie is probably garbage.
