You have to pick one. Which is it?

What does the Bible teach and why is it penal substitutionary atonement?

But Christ is a new Adam, in the sense that all Christians are the mothers and brothers and sisters of Christ, as we are all the children of Adam. Christ being a sinless new Adam bringing Christian unity is part of Christ's message.

When I have seen Eastern Orthodox talk about theosis on 8chan they always talk about it in one of two ways, either 1. Mormonesque apotheosis (damnable heresy, blasphemy), or 2. Like the doctrine of sanctification in our tradition; we only "become gods" inasmuch as we participate in the divine nature, to "become gods" is simply to become like God.

It's neither

1)Mormonic doctrine is impossible, due to God being omnipotent, Omnipresent, omniscient and generally having infinite attributes that are beyond limits. There exists the indestructible barrier between God and Human beings that cannot be avoided, so man can never become God and I am sick of people comparing Theosis to Mormons, since it has absolutely nothing in common with it due to different backgrounds and different fundamental doctrines.

2)what you describe isn't Theosis in its fullness. It's merely one part of it: catharsis.

Why did the omnipotent creator of the universe need middle eastern people to sacrifice goats and animals by cutting their throats and burning their bodies to obtain their blood for so long? Could there have been any other way to "pay for sin"? When I talk to people who are not Cristian they also don't see why god needed to impregnate a teenage middle eastern girl so her child could be butchered as a sacrifice to himself.

How can I explain this in a way that makes logical sense? Perhaps god had no choice in this matter and there is some law of the universe that forces him to need blood?

Galatians 3:22-25

But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

Hebrews 9:18-23

Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.

For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

>Perhaps god had no choice in this matter and there is some law of the universe that forces him to need blood?

You have to put this in its bigger context. God created the very existence of blood in the first place. Everything has been given its purpose with his thoughts and purpose in mind. And his ways are much higher than our ways, his thoughts than our thoughts. Whether or not you realize this fact, this is simply the reality around us. That's simply how it is, and God is also willing for us to come to the knowledge of the truth of his Son if we shoPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Amazon Just Banned My Dad’s Therapy Books, Caving to LGBT Activists

>As of last week, however, you cannot get any of Dr. Joseph Nicolosi Sr.’s books about leaving homosexuality—because Amazon just banned them all.

>From 1981 until his death in 2017, my father was the driving force behind reparative therapy. He invented, refined, and used this innovative counseling method to help thousands of men overcome the effects of sexual abuse and other deep-seated childhood traumas.

>These men told my father that his scientifically sound practices helped re-orient their sexuality away from obsessions with pornography, and helped them reduce their unwanted same-sex attractions.

>The books Amazon banned are the continuation of my father’s legacy and of the changes that can take place through his methods. The books have hundreds of endorsements, from typical readers to past presidents of the American Psychological Association.

>In one comment, which Amazon has now “banned,” a man said the book “Reparative Therapy of Male Homosexuality” saved his marriage.

>Luckily for that man, he was able to find marital help before Amazon became the PC police. Today, he and many other families will now find fewer online resources than ever—not because science dictates their removal, but because LGBT ideology has shouted down sound science.

As a lifelong depressive I can assure you it's almost certainly down to your thinking.

Stop practicing being miserable. stop each crappy thought as you think it and replace with the opposite thought. Its a choice. I was out of depression within a year and tbh it could have been half that if I'd not been so self indulgent.

Even non Christians can do that. I think its called CBT?

think about these verses where the Christian is encouraged to change their thhinking:

Philippians 4:8 - Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things.

It's a command to Fill your mind with good wholesome stuff instead of darkness and misery … this may require a break from the chans lol

2 Corinthians 10:5 "…take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ."

This verse is telling you have authority and control over your mind, so exercise control to make it holy.

God doesn't just wave a miracle wand over us and make us perfect, any more than your earthly parents waved a wand over you and made you walk, talk and potty trained.

This is a process that the Christian must be active in.

>remain single and addicted to porn

You're literally justifying your sin.

Have you never considered that if by looking at a woman with lust you commit adultery in the heart, then by looking at pornography you fornicate with her in your heart?

Ever considered that the Greek word translated as fornication is actually PORNEIA and means sexual sins, so probably pornography too.

Get help now to overcome or you will not inherit the kingdom either /nofap/

If a system is contradictory, it is formally illogical and should be discarded. This is the case for systematic theology in the Roman church.

The Roman church simultaneously claims:

1 -Outside the Church there is no salvation

and

2 -Those who do not know the Gospel of Christ or his(sic) Church may too receive eternal salvation

>Catechism 846 & 847 http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_P29.HTM

Remember that "church" here means the RCC, and to be "inside" the church means participation in the sacraments of the RCC (or deemed permissible by the RCC, like baptism from other churches).

Here are the available options I see:

>EENS (#1) really means that membership in the RCC is normative, it's not an exclusive statement. The two can be reconciled this way.

-arguing against the church's historic reading of the doctrine of EENS from Council of Florence and Fourth Lateran Council (incompatible with viewing the RCC as a source of special revelation)

>Baptism of desire (#2) is a false doctrine (Feeneyism)

-Q: why then is it being taught by the Roman church?

–A1: the doctrine is being corrupted and misleading but the RCC is still valid (naive)

–A2: the papal seat is empty, but traditional Roman theology is still correct (sedevacantism)

>EENS (#1) is wrong, especially if taken to mean "the church" as the RCC

-justification by faith alone

If you are a mainstream roman catholic today, you're either not paying attention or you're a doublethink idiot. I mean that charitably, because it is very urgent that you reconcile your doctrine before God.

Furthermore, St. Augustine famously stated that he would not believe the Scriptures themselves had the authority of the Church not proposed it to him. There is required a supernatural formal motive of faith and this rule of faith must be an infallible one and not rooted in private judgment. Let's say you have a missionary who teaches some dying savage about the Holy Trinity and Incarnation. Said savage them embraces these truths and is baptized.  He has no knowledge of the Church or authority of the Church. In this vague state of mind, he has the bare minimum to be saved as a Catholic. So, if you had someone growing up in a schismatic region who had this same very simple and confused view of the faith, then it's possible that this person remains a Catholic. But non-Catholics cannot be saved. That is DEFINED DOGMA. If they are saved, it's because they are Catholic and have not fallen into schism.

It isn't a question that has ever been raised to us, so we don't know what the formulation is, but about our theology proper, we have always agreed with Thomism about God, and for those of us in the Reformed tradition 'Thomistic' theology proper has often formed the bedrock of our beliefs. And a relevant side note, in the 17th century one of the minor issues the remonstrants made a fuss about was the filioque clause. They wanted it removed from the creed (though not on any theological grounds, they simply felt it was not taught in scripture and should consequently be left to freedom), and the response of the Reformed leaders of the day was to reassert the validity, orthodoxy and biblicity of the filioque clause.

Guys, we're doing pretty well here, free from the Papist mod mafia. We've grown significantly in the last few months, and now we're slowly but surely catching up to /christian/, with 1/2 to 1/3 of the traffic. Of course, /christian/ still has the large advantage of being the biggest Christian board, but because so many Protestants and Orthodox left the discussion there, it has become stale, cringey, and a Papist circlejerk - so not a very attractive board.

Our mission is very simple, don't partake in the discussion there, not even to bash Papists. Just, whenever you can, go there and link back to this board in as many threads as possible. For example:

"This board is heavily censored by the Papist mods, for a free discussion go to:

>>>/christianity/

>>>/baptist/

>>>/orthodox/

"

Remember to use sage so the mods don't notice that the threads are being bumped.

Only a free discussion is the path towards theological truth. Let's make /christianity/ the #1 Christian board on 8chan!

God bless you all!

I think what destroyed the sub was discord. After discord there came to be a tightly knit group on the discord server and it seemed like arguing with that any members of that group would result in mod action and members of that group would carry a lot of weight in asking for bans.

I think a sub becomes unusable through moderation when moderation becomes so strong that it starts to be like a powerful third person in any debate or discussion and the people start changing their discussion style to fit moderation - you see this a lot on reddit where people argue a certain way to provoke a certain resposne and then request a ban. And Christian is certain in that league

I am sad that the board seems to be rapidly dying out with far few PPH and such. Oh well… and I agree they are a bunch of loonies in the discord. I posted one small thing and that tutor guy send literally a massive three paragraph statement. I can tell his idiotic theology he believes that you should kiss the feet of where priests walk (some saint said this so he thinks this is so true) and you shoudln't be on the internet and just read whatever he sanctions as good reading (tutor sanctions). He thinks he's some sort of pseudo pope almost and his spiritual advice is the right way to go. We shouldn't look at news, we shouldn't discuss theology that interests us, we should kiss the ground that the priest walks on, obey literally anything a priest says, literally anything as long as it isn't abject sin. So if a priest says to walk 10 miles and use a public toilet 10 times, you should do it according to His Holiness Tutor. And if you don't like it, BANNED. The guy is delusional and power has gone to his head. And sadly he is killing the board.

How do Orthodox defend against Catholic charges that in order for there to be unity in faith there needs to be a central figurehead, like the Pope, to keep the Church united. Everytime I tried making a post or a thread, because I was genuinly curious as to what the Orthodox have to say (since I am considering conversion to Orthodoxy from Southern Baptist), all the Catholics would flood in and shit everything up and call the Orthodox phyletists and schismatics and that apparently something like the situation between Constantinople and Moscow over Ukraine is proof that there needs to be a Pope. So Orthodox, what is your defense against the RCs?

Where is the problem? Where is the argument against sola scriptura, or for state churches?

Where is the address of any of the points in the post you're replying to?

The image you shared is the worst non-argument of all, it's just an assertion "me right, u wrong". WHY is magesterium to be trusted? Why is it appropriate to liken a theological system to a stool? That's not an image found in scripture.

<For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. (1 Cor. 3:11 NAS)

Is this an untrustworthy foundation because it's singular too?

St. Basil of Cesarea,

"For the cleric or monk caught making sexual advances (kissing) or sexually molesting young boys or men. The convicted offender was to be whipped in public, deprived of his tonsure (head shaven), bound in chains and imprisoned for six months, after which he was to be contained in a separate cell and ordered to undergo severe penances and prayer vigils to expedite his sins under the watchful eye of an elder spiritual brother. His diet was that of water and barley bread - the fodder of animals. Outside his cell, while engaged in manual labor and moving about the monastery, the pederast monk was to be always monitored by two fellow monks to insure that he never again had any contact with young men or boys."

St. Pope Pius V,

“That horrible crime, on account of which corrupt and obscene cities were destroyed by fire through divine condemnation, causes us most bitter sorrow and shocks our mind, impelling us to repress such a crime with the greatest possible zeal.”

“Therefore, wishing to pursue with greater rigor than we have exerted since the beginning of our pontificate, we establish that any priest or member of the clergy, either secular or regular, who commits such an execrable crime, by force of the present law be deprived of every clerical privilege, of every post, dignity and ecclesiastical benefit, and having been degraded by an ecclesiastical judge, let him be immediately delivered to the secular authority to be put to death, as mandated by law as the fitting punishment for laymen who have sunk into this abyss.”

St. Peter Damian,

"The evil of homosexual behavior “surpasses the savagery of all other vices, and is to be compared to no other. For this vice is the death of bodies, the destruction of souls, pollutes the flesh, extinguishes the light of the intellect, expels the Holy Spirit from the temple of the human heart, introduces the diabolical inciter of lust, throws into confusion, and removes the truth completely from the deceived mind.”

>1 Cor 3:11

There are various arguments used against the Catholic understanding of Matthew 16:18, but all are difficult to argue in favor of.

First of all, Jesus had just gathered all His disciples, and He chose to change Peter's name alone, (Abraham also had his name changed, and he was also called called the "rock" (Isaiah 51:1-2)–one argument used against Peter being the foundation of the Church is how 1 Corinthians 3:11 refers to Jesus as the foundation. This is false precisely because the Apostles are also called twelve foundations (Apocalypse 21:14). What this means is that all authority comes from Christ, the Church itself comes from Christ. Well, Peter's authority comes from Christ. He established these things on Peter, so what's setup on Peter is a foundation on Christ, that does not mean He didn't establish an office which would be the rock on which the Church is built. He gives His keys (Apocalypse 3:7, Apocalypse 1:18) to Peter, as it was prophesied in Isaiah 22:22. Jesus is the Good Shepherd, (John 10:14) but He gives that responsibility to Peter also (John 21-15-17), to say that he then points to Peter and calls him "little rock" (Petros is the masculine version of Petra, the reason Petros is used and not Petra (In Aramaic it was "thou art Kephas and upon this Kephas) is to preserve the play on words, not to indicate that Jesus called him little rock) and point to Himself and says "upon this rock" makes no sense, as right after, He gives Him the keys which He possesses (Apocalypse 3:7, Apocalypse 1:18, Apocalypse 9:1, Apocalypse 20:1, prophesied in Isaiah 22:22), and if you pay attention to the wording, it's indicating an office that is established, not something that passes away with Peter. Understanding what the Keys are and Isaiah 22:22 indicate infallibility, and, again, we literally just have to point to early Popes like Leo the Great to see what Papal infallibility/Supremacy is. And you completely ignore the fact that Luke 22 is about which Apostle is the greatest, and Jesus affirm Peter, and He prays for him alone. That's not a mistake. There's a strife among the Apostles as to who is the greatest, Jesus responds by saying His Kingdom is not like that of the Gentiles, describing its structure. He says that Satan has Post too long.

I sincerely apologize for the blogpost; I meant to post this in the relationship general on /christian/ but I was preemptively banned for nothing of course. My deepest apologies for starting a thread just for myself, let this be our relationship general then.

I am facing an existential problem; I used to be severely autistic and lame, unable to hold a conversation with anyone, totally fried with estrogen and insecurity and totally fucked up. as I grew older I remedied this greatly, through a series of events, relationships, and realisations that helped me come out of my shell. I've been doing fine since, but every now and again I find myself in such an awkward situation I begin to fear my whole life, if I may be hyperbolic. I find myself now, without immediate close friends, only people whom I have to act as someone else to, and never hang out with. My parents don't even believe I have any friends, which is such an existential insult to the male heir of their bloodline… a young man who is to become a man; with every skill and competency and piece of experience that comes with that. I am not a monk; I will need that growth. But this feels like maturation purgatory; what I mean is, this is intolerable.

I've also largely stagnated in this matter the past two years and I am seriously wondering if it is too late for me to grow into a likeable, good, not pathologically wrecked person carrying a ton of mental baggage around all the time. I, dare i say, know my purpose in life already, God have mercy on me, and it is absolutely essential I'm not for the matter. I've never felt dread like this, and I don't know whether to submit wholly and just be a physically vacant soul just adrift on God's will or try my hardest and just keep trying to grow, even with the mass of shame and indignity which constitutes my immediate and greater past.

I'm lying, I already know I'll devote my life to the latter, but it seems such a desperate and sad bid; for when I do devote my life to this thing that comes naturally to everyone, what else could I possibly devote it to, what else could I even do. I realise this is a very tiring and vague post, but has anyone had any similar experiences.

Get on my level, I've been friendless for 5 years now, but it's what brought me back to God in the first place.

The best thing you can do, besides being a Christian, is manning up and not taking yourself too seriously. A man doesn't care if he's alone, cold, hot, hungry, thirsty; that is essential manliness, robustness of character and purpose regardless of circumstance. So get over yourself.

And lift.

I want to add, I think a man should have good and deep friendships with other men. I for one lived in a foreign country for the past 5 years, and everyone here is both a liberal degenerate and racially different than me. This is why I couldn't make friends, but I'm going back to my own country so I will in the future.

The only ones I ever met through church functions were incoherent schizos, who are mired in repulsive neurotic insecurities. Whatever moral system remains to be taught by these churches, has been long since buried in nonsense. But the sane ones are working in their rational self-interest, which is to enslave potential high earners with the child support system, by having their kid and dumping them for the guy they really want. Fidelity is nowhere to be found in the current social climate.

They will perish by sword and famine, and their dead bodies will become food for the birds and the wild animals.” (Jeremiah 16:2-4)
