Honestly, I agree with Luther that Hebrews, James, Jude, and Revelation are not scripture. They shouldn't be included in the New Testament, or at the very least placed in a separate apocryphal section as the deuterocanonicals are. Say what you want but my conviction as a Lutheran is firm in this matter. Salvation is by faith alone. This is what Jesus says, this is what Paul says, this is what John says, this is what Peter says. The above writings are doctrinally erroneous and fail to preach the same Gospel of Jesus and Paul and John and Peter. They were disputed in the early Church and apostolic authorship for them hasn't even been thoroughly demonstrated.

For the heretics call upon the scriptures by vainly twisting its words and creating their own meanings, and they even cite the prophet Moses who said,

"Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth:"

(Deut 5:8)

But what did that holy prophet Daniel write?

"I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened." (Dan 7:9-10)

And who would admit that the Ancient of days is another than the Father himself? For both the Ancient of days and the Son of Man are spoken about here, God the Father and God the Son. Thus an icon of God is conjured up in our minds, and it was surely the intention of the prophet to do so, for why would he have described the Deity if he had not intended for an icon of him to become present in our minds? Even in the Old Testament there is a depiction.

(It must be noted that Icons may be generated in our minds by other means,

"He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler." (Pslm 91:4)

Indeed, the Psalms, and the Old Testament in its entirety, often speaks about God anthropomorphically. Yet it must be admitted here that the intentions of the psalmist and of the other authors are metaphorical rather than mystical in nature, like that of Daniel, and must only be considered a drop in the bucket of this defense, and this is known by their lack of true description. Now the Icons these generate in our mind are unintentional are have been spoken of so we might better identify with God as men or to stir up our love fPost too long.

(…Continued)

And do the scriptures contradict themselves when they tell us the prophets such as Abraham our father, Moses the law giver, Ezekiel, or Daniel saw God, yet they also say no man has seen God at anytime until he was fully revealed in the flesh? Heavens no! For we know the scriptures must not always be taken so literally, as they themselves admit as demonstrated above. Yet the scriptures also clarify themselves when they say,

"And he said, 'Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live. And the Lord said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock: And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by: And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.'" (Exod 33:20-23)

What is meant here is the substance. For when it says Moses spoke to God face to face it means only insofar as God was revealed to him through the divine energies and not in substance.

If God then was willing to give an icon to Daniel in the Old Testament, and show the angels to Isaiah and Ezekiel also, how much more has he given us an Icon of himself in the unity of the hypostatic union? The very substance that is God dwelling on Earth, born from a virgin, dying on a cross, and conquering death forever.

Why was is that God gave these laws? "And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:" (Exod 32:9) Being prone to idolatry and worship of the heavenly hosts, God gave them these commandments. For this reason he chose them because he himself says, "They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." (Mark 2:17) The Hebrews, and those of Judah especially, were the most spiritually ill of all the sons of men. God would not have picked Abraham if he had not foreseen the wickedness of his many descendants.

>Catholics ACTUALLY believe this

from "Christian Theology", Millard Erickson

<1237. Until recently, Roman Catholic theologians adhered to the fourth-century threefold formula regarding Mary’s virginity: ante partum, in partu, et post partum (“before, in, and after the birth”). See Raymond E. Brown, The Birth of the Messiah (Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1977), 517–18. The “brothers and sisters” of Jesus have been explained either as children of Joseph by an earlier marriage or as Jesus’s cousins. See J. Blizzer, Die Brüder und Schwestern Jesu (Stuttgart: Katholisches Bibelwerk, 1967).

Ezekiel 44:1-3 is on her perpetual virginity.

"Who is this gate (Ezekiel 44:1-4), if not Mary? Is it not closed because she is a virgin? Mary is the gate through which Christ entered this world, when He was brought forth in the virginal birth and the manner of His birth did not break the seals of virginity.” – Saint Ambrose of Milan (390AD)

“It is written (Ezekiel 44, 2): ‘This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall pass through it. Because the Lord the God of Israel hath entered in by it…’ What means this closed gate in the house of the Lord, except that Mary is to be ever inviolate? What does it mean that ‘no man shall pass through it,’ save that Joseph shall not know her? And what is this – ‘The Lord alone enters in and goeth out by it,’ except that the Holy Ghost shall impregnate her, and that the Lord of Angels shall be born of her? And what means this – ‘It shall be shut for evermore,’ but that Mary is a Virgin before His birth, a Virgin in His birth, and a Virgin after His birth.” – Saint Augustine (430AD)

The paschal sacrifice is but a type of the Lamb of God. The entire OT is a foreshadowing of the new, and greater Covenant. Look into the messianic prophesies in Isaiah and Daniel (Daniel 9 in particular is pretty amazing–it states that after the current empire (at the time it was Alexandria) there will come another empire (Rome) in which the Messiah will be revealed. No secular scholar would date Isaiah or Daniel to after the time of Christ (take a look at the Dead Sea Scrolls).

The exorcism of Annelise Michael.

I've read the transcript to see whether the "demons" had any knowledge that was either publicly unknown or unusual for a girl her age, but no, she or "they" even got Hitler's suicide wrong - claiming he died by fire, while all eyewitnesses unanimously agree that he took cyanide and then shot himself, and that his body was only burned afterwards. So clearly a girl who got her history facts mixed up, and not some entity from hell, or even the "demon Hitler" himself.

Here is a prime example for why the Catholics should be well-advised to test the spirits and not be so quick to believe every spirit that appears and claims to be Mary. I think it's entirely possible that there have been exactly 0 genuine Marian apparitions in all history. When you start reading accounts about the apparitions a pattern emerges, and it's not a good pattern.

In Anneliese's case, the "Mary" is clearly against the basic fundamental Christian doctrine, yet many people have failed to see the issue. I find this very concerning.

And almost every serious theologian, Arminian, Cavlinist, and Molinist, don't mean that.

It means He can if God wills to, but we don't and shouldn't argue as if God's sovereignty existed separately from God's omniscience. That's strawmanning Reformed theology.

Wrong, that's God's impassibility. You are redefining theological terms to suit your argument rather than relying on what definitions theologians have already used.

You affirm a strawman.

Amen, but now you're agreeing with my premise. Without God's gift/grace, a person would only choose hell.

Like the rest of your post, you fail to define key words carefully. What exactly is God gifting? What is or are God's grace/s that man needs.

>John 3:16

Funny you mention this verse.

You also don't go far enough. See what John the Baptist truthfully says: "John answered, 'A person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven.'" (Jn. 3:27 ESV) This includes faith and belief that saves. You also skip 3:8

"The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit." (Jn. 3:8 ESV) And you say we are free and able to come to Chist ourselves?

Grace is a red herring here, yes, faith exists because of grace, because faith is an infused virtue, but Jesus explicitly said that it is His will that everyone would be saved. However, we have our free will, so, we have to choose to confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord, that is the the minimum Jesus requires from us, according to Sts. Paul and John the Evangelist writing in their New Testament Epistles.

I'm not seeing any reason to reject the conclusion. Under calvinism, in the final analysis, those who are in Hell were damned because God chose not to save them. If this statement is accurate, the only defense a calvinist should be making is that God's choice was just and non-arbitrary for reasons related to His foreknowledge.

>>9713

>Without God's gift/grace, a person would only choose hell.

No. The gift is the forgiveness, the gift is not causing one to receive the forgiveness.

<For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; (Eph. 2:8 NAS)

"it is the gift of God" refers to grace.

Faith is the means.

>It means He can if God wills to, but we don't and shouldn't argue as if God's sovereignty existed separately from God's omniscience. That's strawmanning Reformed theology.

Sure He can, but to be arbitrary is against His nature and inconsistent with the Bible. Is God arbitrary to you?

>'A person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven.'" (Jn. 3:27 ESV)

The thing has to be given in order for it to be received. This does not necessitate that God causes the person to choose to receive.

>And you say we are free and able to come to Chist ourselves?

No, Christ did all the work already and the grace is freely offered for anyone who chooses to believe. I am not a pelagian.

>Why? Where does Scripture say God is obligated to save sinners?

Nowhere, but he's gracious to do it anyway.

I noticed there's a lot of fighting on this board between Catholics, Protestants, and Orthodox. So I figured we should make a thread focusing on the common enemies to Christianity.

I'll list a few I can think of:

>Jews

>Muslims

>Satanists

>Atheists

>Sodomites/Homosexuals

The question arises, how do we turn these people away from the devil and away from their Satanic instincts?

I was raised protestant, but eventually came to the conclusion that God did not exist based on classic dialectic discussions, though I myself always categorized myself as a hopeful agnostic since then, as outright denial I felt was equally foolish. There is little unique to my story; I found /pol/, was filled with the rage instilled in me by the social degenerates who degraded me and my race and the propagandized their rank and file empty headed communists and various racial surprise soup to both deny me right to be heard and branded me with the sin of being born white. I long since trained my mind and tempered my soul with vengeance, I hated and still hate freely those who demean my people, turn them into walking garbage can and corrupt the world.

But now even the people of /pol/ are a walking cesspit of larping empty headed creatures, posting the same meaningless, thoughtless tripe ad infinitum. They have like the left, devoured every ally who did not appease their endless needs and destroyed whatever power / unity they were actually beggining to accumulate in 2015 and 2016 and forfeited it KKK Redneck tier patheticism. The board infested likewise by CIA and FBI posters have also exacerbated their natural instinct to eat each other alive at every turn, and now stand utterly and hopelessly divided.

This and another event I shall not describe for brevity have levied me with a conclusion; that is, evil prevails. And yet in this thought I look out to the thought that in such case there must in fact be a God, for if no good can take true route but only parody or even partially imitate it, surely there is an other above whom this descends from. But from this revelation comes great and new found rage.

Why has such evils been visited upon us? Why are the caananites at our doors? Why must this Christians insist on Jesus and forgive their atrocities and obscenities, why not be like the Father who wiped Gomorah from the face of the earth for the blight it was? Why is it written "vengeance is mine", what right does God have to justice that is not his to take or savor? Why has the Father not raised an army like the Crusades of the last sons of his gospel to repel the evils of many nations? Why does he allow courage & beauty to die in place of cowardice and Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

>I was raised protestant,

Same as me.

but eventually came to the conclusion that God did not exist based on classic dialectic discussions,

For me it was the realization that people acted out the revenge of God, so religion was a social construct.

>though I myself always categorized myself as a hopeful agnostic since then, as outright denial I felt was equally foolish.

I think the label atheist is more descriptive for me. Now that I need to know how to deal with religious people, I think nontheist is more accurate.

>There is little unique to my story; I found /pol/, was filled with the rage instilled in me by the social degenerates who degraded me and my race and the propagandized their rank and file empty headed communists and various racial surprise soup to both deny me right to be heard and branded me with the sin of being born white.

Being of germanic descent, I know the guilty by default narrative inside out.

> I long since trained my mind and tempered my soul with vengeance, I hated and still hate freely those who demean my people, turn them into walking garbage can and corrupt the world.

Surprisingly, I think I agree in some sense. The churches in my country are too incompetent to teach the written (and unwritten) rules the police enforce. Instead they are bound for wage slavery. Doing a job they hate, to buy stuff they don't need, so they can impress a woman who will end up screwing them over anyways, sometimes just because they can.

>But now even the people of /pol/ are a walking cesspit of larping empty headed creatures, posting the same meaningless, thoughtless tripe ad infinitum.

Echo chambers are not satisfying long term.

I think the magic jesus part has overshadowed the complaint his life warranted.

>why not be like the Father who wiped Gomorah from the face of the earth for the blight it was?

OT smiting? That's a bit >>>/fascist/

>Why is it written "vengeance is mine",

Sounds like you're questioning why there has to be an institutional revenge (justice) system.

>what right does God have to justice that is not his to take or savor?

God, whatever that means, is supposed to be the omnipotent authority. I am interpreting what you are saying as: how do outliers in my community justify the shitty things they are enflicting on me?

>Why has the Father not raised an army like the Crusades of the last sons of his gospel to repel the evils of many nations?

All in due time. Father figures nowadays are so cucked by feminist emancipation, it is as of there's a common desire for the women to avenge their mothers.

>Why does he allow courage & beauty to die in place of cowardice and decadence?

Interpreted as: why do they ignore the impressive things I do, and reward cowards who go along with it? It's always a battle of social rank, wheather we like it or not. Modern biologists state it is determined by our serotonin level.

>If God ever shined his providence on America, would anyone disagree that he has left?

Thots everywhere in the West, even in churches. Given the slim prospects of finding a good, chaste wife here, I'm thinking about moving to Asialand to find better candidates. They're cleverer, more feminine, thinner, far less slutty, and there are now millions of Christians among them, in countries like China and Japan. The choice of country is complex since it involves very foreign cultures. The collectivist nature of China, for example, gives me pause. Let's plan our trips.

I lived in Germany until last month, and the whoredom there was unbelievable, almost biblical. Germans girls grinding on negroes and arabs in the clubs, tattooed girls everywhere, everybody is on tinder, posters on every corner calling people to get checked for STDs because of an ongoing epidemic. I guess everywhere in NW-Europe is like that, as this graphic shows: >>9639 American cities probably are no different. Every German girl I've talked to was a stupid whore, not just by her behavior, but also by her beliefs, fully brainwashed into feminism and fornication-culture.

If you're from some small, ultra-conservative rural area where most girls save themselves for marriage, as it should be, then your perspective will be different; there a man can get a decent virgin wife only by fulfilling his manly duties, by having a job and being in shape, both as it should be. If you live in other circumstances your chances will be much worse, and unless you're very attractive to begin with no amount of lifting and self-improvement will help you find a Christian virgin wife. So your options are either race-mix, or convert a whore, who even if you forgive her and do everything right, might one day revert to her whore-instincts and ruin your marriage. I'm against race-mixing, and nation-mixing, for the reasons you've given, but you see how as a man in a Liberal (Jewish) society, the odds of living a Christian social life are almost prohibitively stacked against you. In the end I think it's better to try and fail than not try at all, but would you rather your children to be hapas, or grow up in a broken family raised by a whore?

I want to reiterate that I don't condone either, but it seems to me that finding an attractive Christian virgin wife is for most people an almost unsolvable problem as long as the Jews are in charge.
