Welcome / Re: New, old, whatever I am...
« on: November 19, 2023, 07:03:03 PM »
Some of you know me from other places. Now I'm here. Sorry about that...

Always nice to see another guest in our special coffee break room.

And I have been a Christian all my life, but a true Christian since 1994.
True Christian means learn Jesus Christ's commands and obey them. Anything else, is Antichristian.

LOL - what's the goal here?

Controversial Issues / Re: Over protective Mother

The wife says that she know's that God wants it that way for now. I told her that God also wants us to take care of our personal responsibilities as well.

Pray, how does she "know"?

Theology / Re: Jesus expects you to Fast
« on: May 30, 2023, 03:38:08 AM »
Both prayer and fasting are obvious requirements for the Christian to live his/her best life of service. They help US, they serve US in our walk.

Threads like this fill me with reassurance that my apostasy was the only option available.

Does it ever get old?  Looking for ways to disqualify other believers from the faith?

Excuse me, is this the line for the salvation audit to see if we're really really really for real really Christians *this* time?

I think everyone is guilty of "assuming my dearly held worldview is right, now what does this mean?"
Its a lot less common for people to read something and wonder "did this just invalidate the foundation of my existence"?

People seek validation for their belief.

Hey all,

I've known about this place for a while, but just never got around to joining. So I have remedied that. Nice to see so many familiar faces.

Cheers,
Ted.

That horse looks AMAZING

Controversial Issues / Re: Then There Is Visual Adultery.

I hope you all speak boldly about porn's absolute dominance, and compel them to get out of their own way in treating the addiction.

What did we expect after decades of bumper sticker theology?   Twitter manosphere gurus have created better systems for becoming porn free.  But most churches out there will punish you for daring to explore anything beyond "give it to Jesus" or "just stop".

Non Christian Perspective / Re: Might as well make use of this space
« on: March 29, 2022, 10:53:43 AM »
Man I miss sentence by sentence quote responses.  :P

I really resonate with Fenris' opening post.  Back in my 30's when I hit the big old RESET button on my religious thinking, I went back and read the bible from start to finish.  I was well into the new testament before it hit me:  "wait, where is the OBVIOUS UNDENIABLE prophecies of Jesus".  Sure when verses were precision extracted from all over and placed in one document, a convincing case could be made... but reading each book like its own book gave a distinctly different impression.

Now, I'm not a smart dude, but I ain't dumb either.  The whole thing was confusing as a jello helmet. 

And the thing that kept bothering me in the years since.  Just WTAF does God expect of us?  I know I went to the bleeding edge of sanity and beyond trying to figure it out, and came up empty.   And in most denominations of most formal religions, that means an eternity of torture.

Lots of familiar names in this thread.
The gang's all here now.

Seeing all these familiar names brings a deep sense of loss.   How many good folks were booted unceremoniously.  I know at least 2 that have passed away since then.
