“The state will proceed with complete tolerance toward these sects,” but… The Old Testament, so most of the Bible, could no longer be acknowledged as Scripture. Also, depictions of Christ suffering on the Cross, which supposedly render believers subservient, have to go. Effectively, Christianity as traditionally understood would be no more.
I know I’ve seen one of Hitler’s paintings featuring a rustic wayside crucifix, but for some strange reason I cannot find it. Any help? Pic is a more positive use of the Cross, from the famous Third Reich children’s book, The Poisonous Mushroom, which is available in English, by the same translator who did an edition of The Myth of the Twentieth Century. https://www.thomasdaltonphd.com/poisonous-mushroom
@thatguyoverthere@freemo@georgetakei The idea that we’re more than animals is a religious one, I think. I’m a #Christian and don’t see a reasonable non-religious reason for believing that people are more than animals
“Since the 17th century Puritans, God’s people have hated His law. In response, He has steadily removed them from power and influence for the last three centuries.”

Ardainian Hebrew IsraeliteDO. NOT. GO. ASTRAY. Hell is real and it is horrible. Just as in heaven you gain a higher level of awareness than on Earth, and can understand higher mysteries we now cannot, in hell you revert to a lower, more primitive state of being, knowing neither past or future, nor where you are or what you're doing. All you know is agony, fear, longing, loneliness, and desperation. You are an abject slave of your desires, you only see what you lack and desire, you only feel agony, you only pitifully grasp at it, forever and ever. You cannot even remember your failure a moment ago, all you have is that moment of agony repeated over and over forever. I warn you to repent and trust in the mercy of Christ, that you might be spared of the punishments of this wicked generation. #Christ#Christian#Bible#BibleQuotes#Theology#Hell#Satan#Repent

Ardainian Hebrew IsraeliteI think the best illustration of the distinction between justice and mercy is the good thief Christ forgave on the cross. He was still justly put to death for his crimes, but was given eternal life through the mercy of Christ. We live in a world where frequently justice is discarded in the name of mercy, often by those who claim to support "social justice." Of course the real social injustice is criminal evildoers being freed to terrorize the innocent. Those who prattle on about "social justice" pretend the punishment of criminals is unjust, while the punishment of innocents that comes from freeing criminals is not.
The heretical denial of hell guts the meaning of Christianity by disposing of justice in the name of mercy, where Jesus is a magic man who frees us from any consequences for our actions while telling us to be vaguely nice to each other. Christ did not come to abolish the law but to fulfill the law, calling us to be merciful beyond mere justice, but this does not mean justice no longer exists. The other criminal went on blaspheming and mocking God even to his death, and there are many evildoers who follow in that example today who will likewise inherit eternal fire.
The true Christian is to be merciful because of the reality of divine justice, and the horrible punishments that await those who reject Christ's mercy. We must be willing to forgive and pray for divine clemency even for the most wicked, even as we oppose their injustice in the worldly realm, because divine justice is an inevitable given. The repentant must confront the costs of their sins before entering paradise, while the unrepentant must pay the ultimate penalty. Thus we can neither be the accuser who discards mercy in the name of justice, nor the heretic who claims "mercy" in order to get rid of justice.

Ardainian Hebrew Israelite"Many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh; such is the deceitful one and the antichrist. Look to yourselves that you do not lose what we worked for but may receive a full recompense. Anyone who is so "progressive" as to not remain in the teaching of the Christ does not have God; whoever remains in the teaching has the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him in your house or even greet him; for whoever greets him shares in his evil works." 2 John 1: 7-11 #Christ#Christian#Jesus#Bible#BibleQuotes
Welp, I think my #homophobic family tried to call on my real, private number only family has & blocked their number to try and minister to me. I have secret email addresses and phone numbers, so I can trace what group is calling or emailing and why.
When I screened the call, they hung up. They do this every one of my birthdays and #Pride month.
