I hear this a lot. If I may ask, what makes you say that?

>>5536

What are sins that are considered something reprobates do? Sodomy, bestiality, and pedophilia?

bu mp

If someone is reprobate, they will never be saved. Simple.

neat brainwashing. At least it's a religion with the Amendments involved.

The only religion that I know of that's more polytheistic than Mormonism is Hinduism. So seeing as one of the defining doctrines of Christianity is monotheism, no. To accept Mormonism as Christian, I'd also have to accept Scientology as Christian since they're both "churches."

>>11681

>God the father, a separate physical being, created the universe and therefore is the Father of all things.

Modern Mormonism teaches that. That's not the classic doctrine though.

>I am going to tell you how God came to be God. We have imagined and supposed that God was God from all eternity. I will refute that idea, and take away the veil, so that you may see. … It is the first principle of the Gospel to know for a certainty the character of God and to know…that he was once a man like us….

Joseph Smith, "King Follett Discourse"

>Mormon prophets have continuously taught the sublime truth that God the Eternal Father was once a mortal man who passed through a school of earth life similar that through which we are now passing

General Authority Milton R. Hunter - The Gospel Through the Ages, 1945, p 104

>>12007

The Fathers ABSOLUTELY accepted what you call 'Apocrypha' particularly books like the Wisdom of Solomon, Tobit, etc. Why does that mean anything to you anyways? They're apostates according to your gospel.

>>12030

>Vulgate

Weird you'd think priests in the RCC would have read that

For anyone that ends up watching this >>12028

Josiah Trenham is a covenant-breaker. He was an ordained pastor in the PCA and studied at Westminster Theological Seminary. He converted to Eastern Orthodoxy for marriage and not for theological reasons.

>>12024

Not irrelevant at all since Jews have no authority over the Old Testament books either

>>12029

Athanasius also said that the Virgin Mary was more glorious than the Seraphim/Cherubim. He was actually connected to the historical Church, not your sect. He also taught the essence/energy distinction. https://web.archive.org/web/20030414125736/http://chrysostomosca.tripod.com/athanasius_creation.html

>>12030

Basil and so many others quote them as Scripture. You are caught in dialectics.

>"Let me tell you what you believe"

Galatians 1:8 tells you that preachers of a false gospel are accursed. The Fathers do not teach the Solas, go ahead and quote mine as much as you want (same thing Papists do)... I encourage you to go to new advent and actually read what they teach.

I was raised Catholic and like Aquinas but seeing the achievements of the Anglos and based Christian Identity has made me see the potential in prottery… or maybe Anglos are just good conquerors and racists by virtue of their God given genes instead of religion.

>>11944

Christian Identity has zero accomplishments and isn't Protestant

Show us a concordance with a competing definition, that permits using the Lord's name frivolously given that commandment

>takes the lords name in vain

>calls it a matter of opinion when corrected

>uncharitably calls poster a "dumb nigger" and tells him to learn to read

I donno dude, you seem questionable to me at the moment

>>6350

IDs exist, figure them out.

>>5742

Yes and no.

Firstly it is a choice, although not yours but God's. Christ said to His disciples: "You haven't chosen chosen me, 'I' have chosen 'you' "

Then it's a matter if you follow the teachings and believe or not.

I personally have been an atheist for long time but one of my friends got baptised and he started talking to me and he kinda convinced me (to make very long story short). But later he and his friends told me, that they were praying for someone from their circle of acquaintances for God to pick one of them to focus on. And they prayed for that to happen like within a month (like: let this person be chosen in a month) and within that month I've had my first breakthrough.

So at least in my case it was totally not my choice in the beginning, but later I had to read Bible, accept Jesus as my saviour etc, it was much easier but I could see myself failing at some point then too.

>>5742

No, id say faith isn't a choice, but to activately will it is. If that makes sense.

>>11889

I read the the desert fathers recently, transported me to a whole 'nother world.

>>11889

Read it a long time ago. Good when understanding the metaphors for the Christian life

>>11927

To follow up, here is a library from the L'Abri organization. L'Abri is French for "shelter". The organization was made by Francis Schaeffer who was opposed to theological modernism. Schaeffer promoted a more historic Protestant faith and a presuppositional approach to Christian apologetics, which he believed would answer the questions of the age.

Just found out there was a movie made recently based off of Pilgrim's progress. Being a kid friendly movie it does a decent job of communicating the ideas of the book

It's when they start flaunting nukes, then i'll know it's time.

Eff off zoomtard, since you seem to find looking into Dubya’s or Obongo’s administration a chore let me say this IF 9-11/TWIN TOWERS COLLAPSE, OCCUPATION OF AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ, DEATH OF SADDAM, BENGHAZI, DESTABLIZATION OF LIBYA, THE DEATH OF GADDAFI, OR EVEN TRUMP’S MISSLE STRIKES TO SYRIA WEREN’T ENOUGH TO UNLEASH WORLD WAR III THEN NEITHER IS THE IRAN SITUATION

>>11880

Let us pray that there will be no war, as it is only beneficial to the Jews.

Well since this board is still a burning pile of garbage and I can't delete my post, I'll share the answer I found elsewhere on a halfchan /pol/ Christian thread:

>We must remember that we are in a parable, which cannot be expected in all things to agree with what it is brought to illustrate. This part of the parable doth chiefly instruct us in these two things:

>1. That it is the genius of wicked men to lay the blame of their miscarriages upon others, oft times upon God himself.

>2. Men in their excuses which they fancy, instead of excusing will but accuse and condemn themselves.

>3. Usury or loaning money at interest is strictly forbidden by the Bible, Ex 22:25-27 De 23:19,20. Even a rate as low as one per cent interest was disallowed, Ne 5:11.

>This servant had already told two lies. First he said the master was an austere or harsh man. This is a lie for the Lord is merciful and gracious. Next he called his master a thief because he reaped where he did not sow. Finally the master said to him sarcastically why did you not add insult to injury and loan the money out at interest so you could call your master a usurer too! If the servant had done this, his master would have been responsible for his servant's actions and guilty of usury.

God bless.

He absolutely nails the progression of the globohomo agenda in the third video. Based.

I have never heard of this movement and I suspect most other western Christians haven't either, which says enough about their evangelistic efforts to dismiss it in my opinion.

>>11886

It's mostly Episcopal churches and episcopi vagantes that decide to join for whatever reason, they have to insert the epiklesis, remove filioque and use leavened bread and give communion in both kinds and basically remove any post schism saints, it's not like uniatism where they can keep their traditions intact.

>>11886

>Communion of the Western Orthodox Churches or the British Orthodox Church

They only pretend to be Orthodox. They are orientals who recognize only 3 Ecumenical councils. Christ has one nature which is neither human, nor divine but mixture of both. In particular they deny the following definition of the 4th Ecumenical council:

We, then, following the holy Fathers, all with one consent, teach men to confess one and the same Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, the same perfect in Godhead and also perfect in manhood; truly God and truly man, of a reasonable [rational] soul and body; consubstantial [co-essential] with the Father according to the Godhead, and consubstantial with us according to the Manhood; in all things like unto us, without sin; begotten before all ages of the Father according to the Godhead, and in these latter days, for us and for our salvation, born of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, according to the Manhood; one and the same Christ, Son, Lord, only begotten, to be acknowledged in two natures, inconfusedly, unchangeably, indivisibly, inseparably; the distinction of natures being by no means taken away by the union, but rather the property of each nature being preserved, and concurring in one Person and one Subsistence, not parted or divided into two persons, but one and the same Son, and only begotten, God the Word, the Lord Jesus Christ; as the prophets from the beginning [have declared] concerning Him, and the Lord Jesus Christ Himself has taught us, and the Creed of the holy Fathers has handed down to us.

You know it's a sin to lie.

I advise anybody who might happen to be reading this thread that listening to theological advise from a homosexual furry is like listening to an astronomy lecture by somebody who thinks the earth is flat.

Do not feed the trip heretic.

Whatever you say Protestant/Evangelical Kike lover.

What's stopping you from orthodoxy? it's the only remaining christian faith that maintains uncompromised supercessionism.

>Lutherans and Calvinists from Holland and England joined the Ottoman forces at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571

Take your bulls— and lies back to /catholic/, papist scum.

Thanks I'll stick to the words of Jesus and how the church functioned before Rome decided to schism in 1054 AD.
