With all due respect - really?
I wouldn't advocate for a measuring stick of one's faith against the person next to you - that's garbage - but according to the Bible, it's definitely more important to focus on one's faith and relationship with Jesus then ending government corruption.
Don't get me wrong - I spend a couple of hours a day reading these boards for a reason, lol... It's just that at the end of the day - there's definitely a priority. Corruption is always going to be here in some form - it's the result of Adam and Eve's sin entering the world.
Your salvation through believing in and accepting what Jesus Christ of the Bible did for us is what determines your eternity.
To me - it's pretty clear what's more important to focus on, LOL! ;)
No ill will meant - maybe I misunderstood your intent - just trying to make sure the Truth about what is of the utmost importance is clear for those lurking. It's the only thing that's gotten me through these last two years, that's for sure!
I just don’t buy everyone else’s hard interpretation of spirituality. I don’t think one needs to be a devout Christian to experience a good afterlife. I have a brother who became a born again Christian and it absolutely ruined his life. He now thinks his belief in Jesus gives him the ability to kidnap his own children and betray members of his family because he thinks they’re in league with Satan. Things aren’t so black and white.
Again, with all due respect - it's not interpretation, it is very clear in the Bible. It says there is only one true God, and only through accepting what He sacrificed through His son Jesus will we experience eternal life with God in Heaven when our bodies die.
I hear what you're saying with your brother - sounds like a rough situation.
Yeah and don’t get me wrong, I’m not condemning anyone on here for not thinking the way I do. Pray for me all day, I went through a phase where a friend died and I got saved so in you guys’ book I’m good. I just don’t buy a book written by dudes in the desert 2000 years ago being the absolute law of heaven lol. I think there are valuable lessons to be learned from many religions but to follow anyone blindly without questioning it, especially the parts that people use to justify horrendous acts throughout history, was just never my thing.
You should definitely question it - best way to learn it's answers :)
It's no excuse for the crimes that may have been committed under guise of "the Bible said to", but humans aren't perfect. Don't let the imperfections of humans distort the fact that God and the truths of the Bible are perfect. Everything but God will eventually misstep.
Much love to you - huge respect that you're even conversing about this! Will pray for ya!
If you're curious, check out some messages from Pastor Jack Hibbs - Calvary Chapel Chino Hills.
It's one of the few churches in Southern CA that refused to shut it's doors throughout the lockdowns. My wife and I started going a little over a year ago when our church shutdown. The way Jack teaches the surrounding context as he walks through the Bible totally opened a new understanding for us about the depth of truth and application in each verse. It's been eye opening!
Plus - he is a big time patriot! Mike Pompeo and Larry Elder even came to share their stories over this past summer.
Preach it!
