I feel you brother. I try to imagine the demons that drive people to do awful things and I try and direct a righteous anger toward them.

Daily prayer also helps a lot and so does reading a psalm in the morning and before bed.

To hate is to care.
Stop caring and you'll stop hating.

The nature of forgiveness is understanding truth. To want to be forgiven, you must first accept that you did something wrong, and to do that you must first understand the nature of human virtue.

We can help if you wish.

you are not supposed to hate but in the core of christian religion is hatred so thats your problem

most christians are hateful even those who greatly fool themselves. every one of you in this thread are hateful, you can see it from a mile. you just fool yourselves. example is this guy who lifts just to forget about all the scum he hates

the only way to overcome the hate is to face your pride and hatred and love other people. dont take yourselves too seriously for a first step, people do that very often

I've learned to realize that everyone will have to come face to face with their actions in the end. I've stopped hating and just feel pity for people now. They've ruined themselves and their own lives and only they will have to answer for it.

>>32110474
Did I say a real Christian would run away? A real christian would love the feminists and Jews who hate him, and accept his persecution knowing that heaven awaits. There would be no violence or hatred from true followers of Christ.

We can't just sit around and love everyone we have to change the sinners and bring them to the righteous light of the lord

>>32110613
This is why I reach out so much. The hatred is overwhelming not because of what they do, but knowing they will have to face it. I don't want them to do that to themselves, and it burns me to know that they don't care. They walk into the maw willingly, and the hatred turns to saddness, and I ask if there was something I could have done.

>>32110616
Also, there is a big difference between preaching to those who need it and actively hating those with whom you disagree.

I understand. I try to make myself available to help for those who truley desire to become better people. I've learned the hard way that I can't waste energy or resources on people who don't want to face their evil ways. I call it the "time to dust my sandals" moment. Christ was more than willing to help those who looked for it, and knew how to walk away when people were only trying to bring him into their own evil.

When I feel that way I just reread the Gospel. It helps me every time and some passages I'm able to understand more clearly.

As she drove a friend home to the township of Guguletu, outside Cape Town, on August 25, 1993, a black mob pulled her from the car and stabbed and stoned her to death.

According to Rex van Schalkwyk, in his 1998 book One Miracle is Not Enough: "Supporters of the three men accused of murdering [her] … burst out laughing in the public gallery of the Supreme Court today when a witness told how the battered woman groaned in pain."

Four people were convicted of killing her.[5]:17–18 In 1998, all were pardoned by South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission when they stated that their actions had been politically motivated.[1]:71

Biehl's family supported the release of the men,[1]:71 and her father shook their hands, stating:

“ The most important vehicle of reconciliation is open and honest dialogue ... we are here to reconcile a human life which was taken without an opportunity for dialogue. When we are finished with this process we must move forward with linked arms

So many theories.

I think a huge one is that, it can illuminate inequity in the self like almost nothing else can.

If you see someone being virtuous, it turns in you the reflection of virtues you lack. It's easy to lie to others, but it is a bit trickier to lie to the self. The only way to keep doing what you are doing, is to destroy what is good. If you can do that, then you won't feel bad anymore, because there is no good or bad, you destroyed it.

It is quite literally the allegory of satan.

It doesn't matter to me. I don't fear any of them. Truly, greater is He Who is in me, than he who is in the world.

Get used to being hated, if you want to be a real disciple of Jesus Christ. Not only did they crucify Jesus, but they hunted and killed His disciples, too.

Relish being hated by this evil, sick and depraved world, knowing that Jesus will set all things right, and soon.

Yes. Jesus is Life; if you do not have Jesus living inside of you, you are nothing but a walking dead man.

When you become a christian, the Holy Spirit of God enters into you, and gives you life. That is the second birth; the birth of the spirit we mean when we say "born again".

If you're born again, you will never die the second death; if you are never born again, you were born a sinner, went through your life a walking dead man, and are headed to the second death we call hell, the lake of fire.

You can avoid that by changing your beliefs to properly reflect reality.

Every single christian was actually right. Jesus is coming soon, and told us to live in that expectation. For all of those christians who are dead, they drew their last breath here on earth, and then were taken to Jesus, to be with Him forever.

I'm not surprised you can't see the signs being delivered these days; you have closed your eyes, and are stumbling about in the darkness.

You are what the bible terms a "scoffer", saying that because Jesus is taking so long to come back (two days) that He isn't coming back at all.

They do, actually, in the twinkling of an eye, right before the rapture. Maybe a nanosecond before I go, they go.

There will be no living human beings on earth after the rapture, just dead men walking, 144,000 evangelical Hebrews, and two prophets speaking and doing wonders in Jerusalem.

If you want to become a christian now, do it.

If you want to become a christian after you have seen all these things come to pass with your own eyes, you will likely be beheaded for it, assuming you have the balls to be a christian in the Antichrist's world.

You made a statement, that Jesus would judge you favorably. I wanted to see if I would judge you favorably, but you're taking the fifth.

I see.

Do you understand this verse?

John 3:18 [Full Chapter]
“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

If you're condemned prior to your trial, how is it again that Jesus will judge you favorably?

Churchers are the worst. They think that all they need to do is believe in Jesus and pray for forgiveness and you've got the hot seat in heaven. Yet the true object of their worship is MAMMON. And worst of all, these are the people who deign to judge others in the name of Jesus.

I see evil as a product of ignorance, craving and poor mental habits, people acting out of misunderstandings of what will make them happy.

It's better to be more concerned with your own behavior, rather than judging others. Everyone is on their own path.

As for hate itself, I don't see the use in "hating others" it doesn't help yourself or the other. It feels awful and stresses the mind.

If someone is taking delight in doing awful shit, why would you hate them? At worst you would pity them...but even pity is a negative feeling you should overcome as well.

It doesn't, but this is what many christians actually believe. They believe that "oh wow I'm human and whoops I sin" and that begging for forgiveness aka praying is all that's needed. Where are the good works?

>>32113105
Jesus is the True God but he is not the creator. Jesus is perfect and would not create an imperfect world full of evil and cruelty. The creator of the world and it's people was imperfect and thus so are his creations. Jesus came to show us a way to escape the flawed world of the craftsman and join him in perfection.

The Jesus you worship as the creator is a fabrication, albeit a popular. If you have felt the true glory of Jesus then you should know in your heart that this world is not of his design.

Jesus is the Son of God. He always has been the Son of God. And He is God.

When He was walking around the earth, He told people "I and the Father are One". That "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father."

Paul revealed that Jesus is the very incarnation of the Father; that before God created the universe, He knew that Jesus would have to die to redeem it.

The Trinity, God the Son Father and Spirit being One God, is too deep for anyone to fully understand. All of our analogies fail.

But Jesus was walking around the earth with Adam and Eve, thousands of years before He was born of a virgin.

Jesus is I Am as much as the Father is I Am; eternal beings with no creator, no beginning, and no end.

Of Himself, Jesus said He is the Alpha and the Omega; the Beginning and the End; He is God in the flesh, come to live with us, so that by Him, we might be saved.

Okay, well, no christian posted that; you did. So maybe christians are sick and tired of non-christians misstating the clear gospel message. Maybe that.

Maybe your "good works", as you call them, are as filthy rags to a holy God. Maybe that.

Jesus is a false idol conveniently rewritten as synonymous with the Father as a technicality, to get around the fact that several commandments are being broken by christians:

>I am the Lord thy God
Said the Lord, fairly unequivocal.
>Thou shalt have no other gods before me
Worshipping Jesus is doing this.
>Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image
Worshipping the crucifix.

God (all 3) created creation. At first it was good, but then evil perverted it and things went to shit. Apparently His angels had freewill too and some chose to rebel, others chose to obey.
I view it more like not a mistake made in His part but more of what needed to be done for ultimate true salvation to come to us.
True faith & love comes from belief, not from being irrefutably proven, and that's what this is all about (funny how some atheists can't come to terms with this concept).
I think it will be too late when the end of times comes around and God's wrath is irrefutable.

God is a supernatural triune being Who has revealed Himself to us as Father Son and Spirit, bound together as One God. We worship One God.

We have no other Gods before God.

You should be, too.

>>32113656
>Worshipping Jesus is doing this.

not if Jesus and the Father are One.

>Worshipping the crucifix.

appreciating what it means or points to is not the same as worship...otherwise we could say Muslims worship the Quran since they love it so much

I think God is a real asshole and just created people to be a prick to them. Satan thought that this was retarded and wants us to be happy. Many wars are fought in the name of God, many people suffer from his creation. Hail Satan, I say. 3:)

>>32113718
I get that nobody likes to be judged.

By becoming a christian, you are guaranteed not to be judged by Jesus, the Judge of the Universe.

Real Christians don't have any money, since they've given it to the poor, they've left their families behind and chosen not to marry, and walk around barefoot preaching love with their actions more than their words

>>32113656
Your first 2 points are invalid since Jesus God the Son & Yahweh God the Father are 2 of the 3 (3rd being Holy Spirit) in the Trinity.
The last point... I suppose it's open to interpretation. We don't worship the crucifix as God, we use it as a means of relating it to God (Pass by reference, not by value huehue). Always worshiping God over any created object. The Catholics... idk they kind've went wild with the idea.

>>32113439
if a person approaches God in an act of contrition, of genuine sorrow for their sins - then you shouldn't doubt that God will forgive them. The Lord steadfastly refuses limits to His mercy. Also I'd like to throw in that the sacrament of confession is much more preferable to personal confessions to God, but that the essential element of being forgiven by God is a contrite heart

We have all these ideas about the saving faith, whether faith or works, or whether faith and works, whether works are the natural extension of the true faith, or a million other ideas on salvation, but when it comes down to it, none of us truly know whether we're saved until we've died.

This is why all these theological discussions don't matter in the end. Follow the commandments of Jesus Christ and love your neighbor and enemy as yourself, live your life as a good man filled with the love of God and your brothers and sisters and leave the rest to God

The revelations literalists are an interesting cult. They've created this death-cult where they get to go to heaven without dying, and the world is going to end soon so just trash the joint. It's truly the most wicked manifestation of modern entitlement.

>>32113892

>convoluted semantics

Thats the aim of the game.
We are all sinners, Christians of all people accept that and we know for a fact (Christians) that Jesus was and is the only Man to ever live without sin. With that said, if we were judged we'd all fall short of redemption without the grace of God's salvation. Live in fear of the Lord your God.
For the record, the Day of Judgement will be the day the sinners cower in fear and the believers rejoice for the cleansing of the evil in this world and joining God to live as his children in His presence.

>>32113950
Maybe read (and believe) the bible, for once.

Matt. 7:7-8 says that everyone who asks, receives. Romans 10:13 agrees. And Ephesians 1:13-14 says the moment you heard the gospel and believed it, God sealed the Holy Spirit within you as a deposit guaranteeing your inheritance. 2 cor. 1:21-22 confirms this.

Titus 3:4-7 says He didn’t save you because you deserve to be saved, but because of His mercy. And Jesus Himself said what God requires of us is that we believe He sent His Son to die for our sins so we could live in eternity with Him (John 3:16, John 6:28-29, John 6:37-40).

>>32113978
Revelations is coming true before our very eyes, but the concept of a pre-tribulation rapture is absurd. If you call yourself a Christian, you are going to have to face some adversity before the end.

>>32113978
Gee, I wonder where christians got that idea from.

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. 51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.

Oh, yeah, the bible.

Hate is not evil, it is a necessary part of us all, but we should take care not to be consumed by it.

Hatred is the voice of God which speaks directly to your soul, ignore not hatred, lest ye be it's victim.

When injustices occur, we feel God's wrath in our hearts, in the form of hate, and there it remains until justice is served.

Hate is Gods command of us to do his bidding.

Your statement is not coherent. All christians all go through adversity in their life. Nobody that is now a christian will go through the Great Tribulation.

tribulations in your life are not the Great Tribulation, and the rapture most definitely precedes the Tribulation.

It's been known since Isaiah.

Isaiah 26:19-21. But your dead will live; their bodies will rise. You who dwell in the dust, wake up and shout for joy. Your dew is like the dew of the morning; the earth will give birth to her dead. Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. See, the LORD is coming out of his dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their sins.

To say that humans or the world is not imperfect is to ignore what is right in front of your eyes. The True God created nothing because he needed nothing and thus has no need for 'meaning'.

Justice is not vengeance, my brother
they are two very different things

Hate the sin, not the sinner
is what Jesus taught.
Hatred drives us to prevent further injustice,
not to avenge the victims, or to punish the guilty
but that it should happen no more.

Jesus taught us to stand up to our oppressors
and to deny him.
not to lay down and suffer
but to turn the other cheek and say
you have no authority over me

You would probably benefit from more biblical understanding and knowledge, and less, well, whatever caused your last three posts.

If you think Jesus is going to force His bride to walk through the Great Tribulation, you don't know Enoch, the seventh from Adam, and you don't know why he is important.

And you don't understand Paul's letters to the Thessalonians, and to the Corinthians, and to the Colossians.

Start here.

The Bible Teaches About a Rapture
1 Thessalonians 4:17 speaks of an event called "the Rapture", Latin "rapio," Greek "harpazo," which means "to catch up, to snatch away, or to take out." "After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." Paul states that the concept of the Rapture is meant to encourage believers during this Age (1 Thes. 4:18). Other New Testament references on the Rapture are Jn. 14:1-4; I Cor. 15:51-58; and 1 Thes. 4:13-18.

>>32114572
>Same god. Different covenants.
>Implying the True God wouldn't get it right the first time.
The True God made no covenants. These are covenants with the imperfect craftsman.

>>32114645
Jesus isn't the craftsman. He is the True God come as flesh to lead people away from the untruth of the craftsman. A perfect being could create a world in which decay and death may never enter. These things exist because the creator was imperfect. This creator and Jesus are separate entities.

>>32114905
We are not, actually. Even that statement of yours is demonstrably false.

2 Corinthians 5:17 [Full Chapter]
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

You have such odd ideas. Maybe you'd benefit from getting in touch with reality a little. There is no evil craftsman from whom we must flee. There is only the Creator, to whom we can be reconciled.

Jesus is that Creator.

Jesus is God.

Much evil is done in the name of Christ.

>>32114689
Let's unpack this a bit

First, I wouldn't stop there. I'd go so far as to say a person who considers themselves a Christian will not know whether they are a disciple of Christ until they've died. There's plenty of "Christians", and fewer disciples. All a man can do is to have a willingness to be seized by the truth that Jesus is Lord and possess the conviction to obey Christ's commands.

But there's plenty of people who say Jesus is Lord, or even think they believe it without understanding what it means to believe it. It's these people who share your opinion, that they're justified by their faith and their actions are henceforward meaningless, that can die, assured of themselves, and then meet the Lord when says to them Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.

You better think long and hard on what it really means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ

See, you're a works based religion, never sure of your own salvation, because at least part of it is up to you. And you're a total failure at being God, so part of your salvation, in your own works based ideology, is a complete and utter failure. So if it's up to you to get into heaven, you know that you would fail, and have failed, to do so.

See, the latter part about the drinking of the water, etc., is in regards to tribulation saints. You don't know that, because you don't know how to properly divide the bible. You think you have to give a child a drink of water to get into heaven. But you don't live in the Tribulation age, yet. You will, but not yet. You are still in the Age of the Church.

And you think I'm speaking of the catholic church, naturally, which I most certainly am not. The catholic church members are exactly the sorts of people Jesus will tell to get away from Him, as they are workers of iniquity.

No, christians can know that they are saved by having the Holy Spirit inside of them telling them they are saved.

You?

You're running around giving out as many glasses of water as you can.

Because you have completely missed the point of the gospel of Jesus Christ; that salvation is a gift given by God to whoever believes in His Son, Jesus Christ.

Read 1 John, and every day, until you can KNOW that you KNOW that you are saved. Until you KNOW, your salvation is in doubt and Jesus told us to MAKE SURE of our own salvation.

Which you have obviously not done.

Indeed, He did quite the opposite, stating that all authority is God's, and from God, and that rebellion against authority is rebellion against God. It should only be done under dire circumstances, where you can be convinced in your heart that God Himself would be involved in that rebellion.

>>32105108
Christians are not forbidden to hate, but only should direct the hate into the right direction and dont be possesd by it.

The bible says hating evil, sin, and unrighteusness is a sign of a christian and God loves it, because you can read that God also hates those things and does not tolerate it.

If we now try to be like christ who hated the pharasees for their hypocray, why are we not allowed to hate what God hates

>>32115451
Just the opposite. Salvation by grace through faith, not of works, lest anyone should boast (that they are a disciple! no less).

Plain old bible, from thousands of years ago.

If you love heaven so much, why not kill yourself? :3

>>32115526
Aye, the wrath of men does not accomplish the righteousness of God.

Be angry, but sin not.

As the great apostle Paul said, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

It doesn't matter to me if I live or die, but if by living I can sneak one more person into heaven, then I shall live to do so.

One more for the Kingdom!

One more for Christ Jesus!

discipleship can tolerate no conditions which might come between jesus and our obedience to him - d. bonhoeffer

without obedience to christ, you're not a disciple. christianity without obedience to christ is christianity without discipleship, christianity with no following of christ.

if you believe in christ, you will obey christ. do you obey christ's commandment to love you neighbor and your enemy? if you don't, you don't believe.

>>32115363

the works vs faith debate misses the point.

Works = Faith = Works = Faith.

To have faith means to work as Jesus did.

>that salvation is a gift given by God to whoever believes in His Son, Jesus Christ.

Your faith is embodied in your works, how you live the holy life. Your faith is not a mental prayer you affirm, it's not linguistic, it's not something you simply regurgitate verbatim.

There's nothing magical about invoking "Jesus Christs" name or saying "I love you Jesus"...you get no brownie points this way.

Your faith in Jesus is precisely the good you do, faith is without words. Faith is intention and action.

>>32115702

Living as Christ is taking him into your heart. Otherwise it's just a psyche.

The goal is to take what's good about the old and accept the new. But not accept all new ideas because that leads to degeneracy.

>>32115790
this, so much.

works of love are the extension of faith and vice versa

Don't confuse frustration or strong words with hate. Jesus also yelled at Peter and called him Satan.

Did Jesus hate peter? Doubtful...As far as "hate" goes, the Christian should hate money and family bonds more than anything and give them up immediately.

Since these things will prevent him from doing as Jesus did and being a disciple and thus saved. Only disciples have faith in Jesus, the rest are just cheerleaders paying lip service.

>>32115894

Unfortunately the fuck you I got mine mentality is so ingrained in today's entitled that they cannot even imagine untangling it from their mind. So they weave it into their belief, until even a place in heaven is viewed as an entitlement. For if we all lived as Jesus taught, we would already have heaven on Earth.

>>32115790
Jesus calls for a follower who will hate his mother and father, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life.

>>32115790
I am involved in no such debate.

I am saying that the bible supports knowing whether or not you are saved, before you die.

You say that is impossible.

But with God, all things are possible.

I am not impressed with either your faith or your works, to be blunt. I'm not even sure you know Jesus, or what the work is. Maybe you should post your bona fides first, then talk "faith v works".

It's funny how people like Francis of Assisi or Father Juniper or the Apostles are seen as these bizarre anomalies in Christianity, when they should be the average. But people are too attached to their lives, their money, their worldly goods...they think Jesus set a standard too high...

"For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light." - Jesus

>>32116053
how can a person know if they're saved when people are capable of lying to themselves? you say you believe. do you? really? are you so certain that works are dead, rather than the extension of faith? do you love God? you neighbor and enemy as yourself?

do you see how impossible it is to answer these questions? who can be the judge of whether we love God? who can be the judge of whether we love our neighbor? who can be the judge of whether we have faith?

you don't, and the bible doesn't. God alone

work out your salvation in fear and trembling, but not without hope, faith, and love, and the greatest of these is what?

>>32116084

Yeah ok buddy, you go and thump your bible. If you believe in your heart that you've lived a christian life, then so be it.

this is highly relevant

1 Corinthians 4 So look at Apollos and me as mere servants of Christ who have been put in charge of explaining God’s mysteries. 2 Now, a person who is put in charge as a manager must be faithful. 3 As for me, it matters very little how I might be evaluated by you or by any human authority. I don’t even trust my own judgment on this point. 4 My conscience is clear, but that doesn’t prove I’m right. It is the Lord himself who will examine me and decide.

5 So don’t make judgments about anyone ahead of time—before the Lord returns. For he will bring our darkest secrets to light and will reveal our private motives. Then God will give to each one whatever praise is due.

6 Dear brothers and sisters, I have used Apollos and myself to illustrate what I’ve been saying. If you pay attention to what I have quoted from the Scriptures, you won’t be proud of one of your leaders at the expense of another. 7 For what gives you the right to make such a judgment? What do you have that God hasn’t given you? And if everything you have is from God, why boast as though it were not a gift?

christ says not to be anxious or fear anything

so if you're worrying about everyone else, you're doing it wrong

I'm afraid you've got it all wrong, brother.

Hate is not the 'Evil,' 'negative,' emotion that you perceive it to be. Do not be blinded by the "Church of Nice," modernist heresies.

I need a better reason than the Pope, because his claim to supremacy has always been half a faith principle in the first place.

I've never understood how this kind of groups continue to exist. Why does the Church allow them, and then preach completely contradictory beliefs? Do these Bishops have ANY influence in the Vatican? Do the Knights of Malta have any respect anymore.

It just all feels like a reenactment museum that the Church pats on the head, and otherwise ignores. Clearly the Pope doesn't give a shit about actually keeping Catholics in line (unless they're conservative), so why shouldn't I just be a Schismatic?

>>32128118
The bible makes it perfectly clear that we should be centrist and not be pulled with the polar opposites of left and right.

Proverbs 4:27
>Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

Deuteronomy 5:32
>Ye shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

Joshua 1:7
>Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.

Yes, it's perfectly okay to hate deviancy. Yes, it's perfectly okay to hate those who propagate degeneracy but we should also love them and try our best to lead them back into the light.
