hello i am interested in possibly becoming a christian but i want to ask how do christians justify opposing racemixing, don't most christians think the bible accepts racemixing? i see and feel the good aspects of christianity to an extent but this concern is holding me back, it seems like maybe only a tiny fraction of white christians care about racial preservation and most feel that the idea of racial preservation through force is a sin

<he doesn't understand how genetics works. LOL

Genetic differences aren't measured in terms of time, therefore they cannot directly map to any arbitrarily chosen timeline, retard. Plus, the way DNA actually "mutates" and "evolves", happens much more rapidly than clueless atheist talking heads would have you believe. Any honest geneticist (and especially Christian ones) will openly admit that the entire darwinian framework doesn't describe the reality of how DNA actually works at all. If you think genetic lineages in any way necessitate an acceptance of the stupid evolutionary timeline, that just means you have no idea what it is you're talking about.

Nobody said to not use what they use, otherwise we wouldn't be using much of the same scriptures. The point was about goals and values. If you share their values of rebelling against God's will, your status of a Christian is suspect. And yes, everything having to do with zionism and the modern state of "Israel" is most certainly rebellious in nature.

My point was you don't discredit something that works based on the fact (((they))) use it. Ethno-Nationalism isn't inherently anti-Christian, pretty sure nobody on this site is a Zionist. The issue with Zionism is that it's predicated off an obsolete covenant (Ripping of the temple after Christ's death) which informs their ethnicity, and which they need to invade other nation's in order to have their own nation. But that doesn't mean Nationalism is bad.

That isn't why it's discredited, but it should be enough reason to make people reevaluate their stances. Not questioning shared (((practices))) enough is why most Christians are still blindly using the corrupted masoretic text in their Bibles.

>The issue with Zionism is that it's predicated off an obsolete covenant

There are far bigger issues with Zionism than that. Not the least of which is the house of (((Judah))) masquerading as the house of Israel.

>But that doesn't mean Nationalism is bad.

Nobody is saying nationalism is bad. The problem here is this modernist "white" idolatry. "White" people didn't even exist as a, loose homogenous identity group until recently, and now it's being used as a basis to mimic rebellious Jewish isolationism. Jews were always independent and closed off, while Christians were always open and collaborative. To just brush off such a drastic arbitrary flip in Christian attitudes, is to turn a blind eye to their (((tricks))).

>Literally every human on earth is as much a descendant of Noah as they are Adam

Human, not beast. And since Noah was perfect in his genealogy, he was indeed in the image of Adam. So yes, all mankind is in the image of Adam and Noah. Negros can not possibly be mankind, as they are not in the image of Adam and Noah.

>I've always been under the impression that separate races came from Babel

I can see how that interpretation could make sense if it weren't for the contradictory evidence that negros are not human. But it could also mean that the white race was spread out, and made into the various white nations with their various white languages. It says the people were scattered and unable to understand each other's languages. It does not say everything with 2 legs and speech was from those people.

>unless I'm misunderstanding the flood as a world-wide event?

I can't say for sure on that debate, but I am trying to find better information on it. The word used is erets, which can indeed mean some limited geographical area of land, it is used in that manner in the bible itself. But it can also mean the entire world I think. I may make a thread to discuss this question in the future when I have done more study.

>Believe me when I tell you I'd love to be on your side with this, but I just don't think the God would tell us to spread the gospel to every living creature knowing full well that other races couldn't be saved

Can fish be saved? If you interpret "to all creation" as "to everything I created", then you need to be spreading the gospel to trees and rocks too. None of those can be saved. Obviously the equally possible interpretation "to all of the world", implying all of man on the planet makes more sense.

It's not really false witness to be holding them to their own standards though. We may disagree with their rules, but they're still the rules over there. It's not like they don't have the final say on whether or not they'll exercise their Logos to stop banning people so frivolously. All that approach is doing, is holding up a mirror to their actions. If they don't recognize the road they're going down, that's on them, but hopefully they'll gain some discernment out of it.

6fbee2 No.10685 [Open thread]

Mary is the mother of Jesus.

Jesus is God incarnate, He is fully God and fully man.

If Jesus is God, then Mary is theotokos, mother of God.

If Jesus is man, then Mary is anthropotokos, mother of a man.

If Jesus is Christ, then Mary is christokos, mother of Christ.

Each of these statements is true and the use of any one does not necessarily mean rejection of one of the others.

They are all extrabiblical terms, meaning that they aren't found in scripture. They were all conceived of by theologians after Christ ascended.

The least ambiguous way to refer to her is "Mary, mother of Jesus".

Thanks for reading.

Well that's not exactly true. It's not half and half. Jesus is fully God and fully man. You really seem to be looking at it like it's some kind of additive formula, which it isn't. It isnt the divine nature + the human nature making the hypostatic union. It is the assumption of the human nature and will into the divine person.

It would be a mistake to consider this "new IFB" movement as representative at all of baptists. It's really just a small number of newly planted churches coupled with good youtube publicity.

The cathar and waldensian connection is just part of the "trail of blood" idea from the early 20th century, trying to find examples in every era of Christian groups practicing believers baptism only.

It's too bad they followed in the footsteps of the Trail of Blood (1931) version of events and didn't do some more original research on the subject. They could have found much better sources such as the Edinburgh Encyclopedia article of 1830 (Vol. 3, p. 251) and other primary sources.

The ToB really doesn't argue strongly enough from the case for the local church and against state churches, and what I mean specifically is they think there is a need to identify with "groups," which were usually in their times equally as political as the very state church that they opposed. While it is often the conceivably the case that local, Bible-believing churches were politically under some state church, that doesn't mean churches needed to react to this with some "movement" to compete for political capital with these state entities. Although it is very likely the case that individual members of such churches did participate in these political movements, their local churches did not institutionally go along with them. Because to do so, and to form a denomination, would be antithetical to maintaining true Biblical primacy.

So just as in the counter-reformations baptists were charged as being protestant due to often existing inside lands controlled by those state churches, in other times they would have been called (by their pedobaptist adversaries) donatists or paulicians for instance, or else called by some political movement as the peasant uprising in Munster or the Petrobrusians or Waldensians, or else just struck with the general derogatory anabaptist label (as the Mennonites eventually even adopted this label). But none of these groups or "movements" is the same as the independent, baptist, local church because that is based on the New Testament. It has received the Scripture which is the word of God (preserved from destruction by various state church entities) and it hasn't changed or added doctrine since. Even today, one of those historical distinctives is the refusal to use any corrupted versions of scripture such as the alexandrian or catholic versions, as well as being baptist and not organized into a political denomination.

That's also (one of) the reasons I don't associate with NIPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Back from 2015 to about early 2018, Common Filth was a Protestant podcaster who detailed the degeneracy and evils of the current generation with a clearly Christian point of view. He didn't play into anyone's hands left or right, not Republirats, not NatSoc-larpers, not Alt-Kikes, not Church-cucks, just a raw. unfiltered indictments against modern culture straight outta Ezekiel 23. About the time he took a deep pause (late 2017 or early 2018), I assume he took a break since he either got married or was deep in his relationship with his gf, and many believe his research was starting to affect negatively, especially spiritually, which he knew.

Oh, and perhaps the most important lesson from him:

Also he said and I quote we should never have given the gospel to English people and that "white girls [expletive] dogs." I'm glad that he is gone. We need to read Ephesians 4 and 5 as a pattern for behavior, and that guy clearly never did this.

<And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not. And there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord. Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the Lord spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace.

Now, what was Nadab and Abihu's sin? That they offered worship according to their own construction, rather than divine regulation. Thus their fire is called strange, for "he commanded them not". Now this sin was so serious, that God did not even wait for them to be punished by the people, but immediately slew them, not only slew them but burned them alive. We can imagine that Aaron was reasonably nearby to them, his sons, his pride and joy, his genetic legacy, the surety of the continuance of life and the cheating of death, whom he had known since they were but babes and raised them to be men. I wonder if he heard their screams. Evidently, God felt indebted to Aaron, to give a reason and make explanation, of why his sons who had received such an honor had to die so horribly and so soon, because He specially sent Moses, just for Aaron, to explain. And He explains, that He shall be glorified before the people, which consideriPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>The death of the whole entails the death of all parts.

Under that logic, that would entail the Psalms of the Old Testament as well.

>We should restrict worship art to none whatsoever. How we have forgotten the second commandment, that we put up images of corruptible man and birds and fourfooted beasts and creeping things in God's house. Lord have mercy.

>We are not to use instruments at all, they were a part of the sacrificial worship of the old covenant.

Ohhhhhh….I see. Even though that commandment against graven images ordained by God, is given literally shortly before specific instructions were given on building the temple, including images of cherubim, animals, etc., thus making that commandment exegetically related specifically to utilizing art for idolatry, not art itself.

As for your point on instruments…. so it's Biblically mandated to follow the 150 Psalms…. but disobeying their instructions to use instruments is also Biblically mandated… according to you?

I'm not going to waste my time with the rest, because I can already tell from just these responses from you, that not only are we not going to see eye to eye, but you are clearly treating Scripture as a pick and choose buffet, or even a "perforated Bible" as satirized in the Babylon Bee, in order to suit your interpretation of Scripture:

No I just understand (evidently unlike you) that not all worship in ancient Israel was part of sacrificial temple worship. There's a clear pattern here you're just choosing not to see it in favor making arguments that are logically fallacious and factually incorrect.

>That or you're a troll

And the fact you saw fit to make such a conclusion about such a thorough response which actually exegeted the key text demonstrates that all this post really was is capitulation.

Ten Minute Bible Hour on youtube just released a new video in his series where he visits a church of a different denomination and speaks with the pastor there. This time he's at a Roman Catholic cathedral in Salt Lake City.

He's a mainstream evangelical, probably baptist. He has youtuber personality. He's probably going to politely treat everything as very impressive and not push back on any theological claims of the priest there.

Let's watch it, friends.

I really enjoyed the one he did with the Orthodox fella. This one was a bit less "impactful" to me than his sit down with the Orthodox pastor. It felt the whole time like the Catholic Priest was almost being disingenuous with some of his answers or explanations, like he was afraid to say "I don't know" whereas the Orthodox guy was perfectly comfortable to admit he didn't have all the answers. I don't mean to make this an anti-Catholic post because things are pretty heated especially on this board towards them, but its my honest thoughts on it.

Just a reminder…

The Roman church isn't catholic.

The eastern church isn't orthodox.

The one, holy, Catholic and apostolic church is the church invisible, which is comprised of Christians everywhere in the world who profess the gospel message famously an eloquently declared in the reformation as Sola Fide. This is the gospel according to Luther, Augustine, Paul, and Abraham. Today orthodox Christianity is culturally known in the west as "evangelical protestantism".

<Galatians 1:8 NASB — But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed!

Threadly reminder,

Those who are born-again children of god, baptized in the Holy Ghost, CAN be reasonably sure they can understand the Bible without vain tradition.

We have THE author of the Bible dwelling in us, who guides us to all truth.

>What about the gnostic gospels??? How do you know they're not the Word of God without our vain tradition???

I've read them. They're retarded. They contradict the four Holy Gospels (and the rest of the Bible) so blatantly, that to not be able to tell their forgery shows you aren't indwelt by the Holy Ghost.

>I know who you are, you come from the Immortal Realm of Barbelo

-Judas, to Jesus, The Gospel of Judas

Thoughts on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and Hong Xiquan?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Xiuquan

>Hong Xiuquan (洪秀全), born "Hong Huoxiu", was the third and youngest son of a poor[how?] Hakka family.[2][3] Some sources claim his family was "well to do".[4] He was born in Fuyuan Springs, Hua county (now part of Huadu District, Guangzhou), Guangdong to Hong Jingyang, a farmer and elected headman, and Madam Wang.[5][6][7] He and his family moved to Guanlubu Village shortly after his birth.[8] Upon marrying his wife Lai Xiying, Hong received the courtesy name "Renkun."[9]

>Hong showed an interest in scholarship at an early age, so his family made financial sacrifices to provide a formal education for him, in the hope that he could one day complete all of the civil service examinations.[2] Hong began studying at a primary school in his village at the age of five.[10] He was able to recite the Four Books after five or six years. He then took the local xiucai preliminary civil service examinations and placed first.[11] A few years later, he traveled to the nearby city of Guangzhou to take the imperial examinations.[12] He was unsuccessful and, his parents being unable to afford to continue his education, he was forced to return to agricultural work.[13] The next year, he accompanied a wealthy schoolmate elsewhere for a year of study and became a village schoolteacher upon his return.[14]

>In 1836, at the age of 22, Hong returned to Guangzhou to retake the imperial examinations.[15] While in Guangzhou, Hong heard Edwin Stevens, a foreign missionary, and his interpreter preaching about Christianity.[16] From them, Hong received a set of pamphlets entitled "Good Words for Exhorting the Age", which were written by Liang Fa, Stevens's assistant, and contained excerpts from the Bible along with homilies and other material prepared by Liang.[17] Supposedly, Hong only briefly looked over these pamphlets and did not pay much attention to them at the time.[2] Unsurprisingly, he again failed the imperial examinations, which had a pass rate of less than one percent.[18]

>Hong began by burning all Confucian and Buddhist statues and books in his house, and began preaching to his community about his visions. Some of his earliest converts were relatives of his who had also failed their examinations and belonged to the Hakka minority, Feng Yunshan and Hong Rengan.[34] He collaborated with them to destroy holy statues in small villages, to the ire of local citizens and officials. Hong and his converts' acts were considered sacrilegious and they were persecuted by Confucians who forced them to leave their positions as village tutors. In April 1844, Hong, Feng Yunshan, and two other relatives of Hong left Hua county to travel and preach.[35] They first journeyed to Guangzhou and preached in the outlying areas before heading northwest to White Tiger Village.[36] There, Hong and Feng Yunshan split off and traveled some 250 miles to the southwest to the village of Sigu, Guiping county, Guangxi, where distant relatives of Hong's resided, including two early converts who had returned home.[37] It is in or near Sigu that Hong begins to draft "Exhortations to Worship the One True God," his first substantial work.[38] In November 1844, after having preached in Guangxi for five months, Hong returned home without Feng and resumed his previous job as a village teacher, while continuing to write religious tracts.[39]

In 1847, Hong Xiuquan was invited by a member of the Chinese Union to study with the American Southern Baptist missionary, Reverend Issachar Jacox Roberts.[40] Hong accepted and traveled to Guangzhou with his cousin Hong Rengan.[41] Once there, Hong studied Karl Gützlaff's translations of the Old and New Testaments and requested to be baptized by Roberts.[42] Roberts refused to do so, possibly due to Hong being tricked by the other converts into requesting monetary aid from Roberts.[43] Hong left Guangzhou on July 12, 1847 to search for Feng Yunshan.[44] Although robbed of all of his possessions, including his demon-slaying sword, by bandits in the town of Meizixun,[where?] he eventually reached Thistle Mountain on August 27, 1847.[45] There, he reunited with Feng and discovered the Society of God-Worshippers Feng had founded.[46]

>Hong made some minor changes in the text, such as correcting misprints and improving the prose style, but adapted the meaning elsewhere to fit his own theology and moral teachings. For instance, in Genesis 27:25 the Israelites did not drink wine, and in Genesis 38:16-26 he omitted the sexual relations between the father and his son's widow.[53] Hong preached a mixture of communal utopianism, evangelism, and Christianity. While proclaiming sexual equality, the sect segregated men from women and encouraged all its followers to pay their assets into a communal treasury.[54]

>When Hong returned to Guangxi, he found that Feng Yunshan had accumulated a following of around 2,000 converts. Guangxi was a dangerous area at this time with many bandit groups based in the mountains and pirates on the rivers. Perhaps due to these more pressing concerns, the authorities were largely tolerant of Hong and his followers. However, the instability of the region meant that Hong's followers were inevitably drawn into conflict with other groups, not least because of their predominately Hakka ethnicity. There are records of numerous incidents when local villages and clans, as well as groups of pirates and bandits, came into conflict with the authorities, and responded by fleeing to join Hong's movement. The rising tension between the sect and the authorities was probably the most important factor in Hong's eventual decision to rebel.

>By 1850 Hong had between 10,000 and 30,000 followers. The authorities were alarmed at the growing size of the sect and ordered them to disperse. A local force was sent to attack them when they refused, but the imperial troops were routed and a deputy magistrate killed. A full-scale attack was launched by government forces in the first month of 1851, in what came to be known as the Jintian Uprising, named after the town of Jintian (present-day Guiping, Guangxi) where the sect was based. Hong's followers emerged victorious and beheaded the Manchu commander of the government army. Hong declared the founding of the "Heavenly Kingdom of Transcendent Peace" on 11 January 1851. Despite this evidence of planning, Hong and his followers faced immediate challenges. The local Green Standard Army outnumbered them ten to one, and had recruited the help of the river pirates to keep the rebellion contained to Jintian.
