How old were you when you realized Christianity is true?
>>18099180This thread is off topic.
>>18099180After the October 7th attacks and the Youtube algorithm flooded my recommendation feed with Christian content. I have converted.
>>18099217So you only became Christian because the algorithm pumped out some content for you to consume
>>18099256Yes. God reached me through there.
>>18099180always, everyone knows… Everyone is a "Christian" in denial.
>>18099217>>18099278Why did you decide to worship a zionist tranny rabbi as a god after the palestinian retaliation on zionists?
>>18099284He was a rabbi but he wasnt a tranny. Why are you making such a big deal about it?

I was 15 when I *believed* Christianity was true.Hope that answers your question
The woman is a mistake
>>18099180I realized after reading Plato's allegory of the cave and realizing the enlightened one that was killed by his kin for trying to show them Good.
>>18099546This is more the Gnostic view of Jesus.Remember that the Nicene view is that Jesus created the world/cave himself
>>18099180Around 21-22 after coming across the historical case for the resurrection
>>18099562No, the cave was dug out by Man. Remember Adam's Fall.
>>18099628Can you please explain why there was an evil serpent in the Garden of Eden before the Fall of Man?Furthermore, if God knows everything, why would he blame Adam and Eve instead of the Serpent?It's not even that they did anything bad... the fruit simply gave them enough self-awareness to understand that being naked was less civilized than being clothed, I don't see how that hurts anyone
>>18099180I kind of always knew deep down, but this year was the year I fully realized it.
>>18099628>Adam's FallHaving his eyes opened by the Light was accomplished by them that fell for his creation. A disruption which was only redeemed in Christ.
>>18099282That kind of thinking makes rational discourse impossible.
>>18099634Genesis never says the serpent is evil, just cunning.
>>18099634>Can you please explain why there was an evil serpent in the Garden of Eden before the Fall of Man?The Serpent is a mouthpiece of Satan. >inb4 ok but why evilSatan was not made evil, just like Adam and Eve (they were Good to God as per Genesis 1 and 2), but by being a moral agent. He sought to entertain his own design for Creation by leading Adam and Eve to their death; and as a free agent, God let him put his plan into motion, because He wants all of His Creation to love Him, and He wants to show Mercy, as per his character. Love is willing and free. And Satan chose wrong, and was and will be punished for it, because God is Just.>It's not even that they did anything bad...According to who? You? God said not to eat it, and God is the One. He is the basis of morality, and said not to eat it. It is expressly bad. >the fruit simply gave them enough self-awareness to understand that being naked was less civilized than being clothed, I don't see how that hurts anyoneHe explicitly said "Eat this, and you will surely die." They hurt THEMSELVES by doing this, for no reason other than hearsay from some reptile. They hurt themselves, and then sinned against God by refusing His command, AND THEN put Him in the difficult position of deciding how to both be Just AND merciful and not compromising on either quality in His Judgement. It was the greatest evil — ever. Nothing Mankind can or will cook up will ever come this close to metaphorically striking against God.
>>18099634Different anon here.>Can you please explain why there was an evil serpent in the Garden of Eden before the Fall of Man?Because Lucifer (the serpent in the garden) fell before man did.>Furthermore, if God knows everything, why would he blame Adam and Eve instead of the Serpent?God didn't blame them for the serpent's scheme, He just punished them for their own actions. God gave a very simple commandment, but they chose to trust the serpent's bable instead of God's word and rebelled against Him. Simple as.>It's not even that they did anything bad... the fruit simply gave them enough self-awareness to understand that being naked was less civilized than being clothedThat's your interpretation. The bible suggests much greater consequences, even going as far as saying this would make them like God.>I don't see how that hurts anyoneJudging something like this in such a reckless, superficial manner is not a good idea.
>>18099634>why would he blame Adam and Eve instead of the Serpent?According to Genesis 3, each one received the appropriate blame and judgement against them for their own actions. The serpent was cursed to eat dust and move on its belly, and it's cursed more than all cattle and beasts of the field.
>>18101545Eve never received the command from god directly yet she was punished the mostThe jewgod claims to have cursed satan to earth but we find out later he can just go to heaven when he wants
Talking snakes do not exist. Gods do not exist.
>>1809918027But I only believe in Jesus ChristThe chirstian church inverted the values he shared for their own gain

I got saved at about 16
>>18102158You got a real rude awakening coming
Would Jesus forgive what's going on in Palestine?I know the satanic cult grows stronger the more you hate them and the more you believe they control the worldDoes forgiving them strip them of their powers?Or would Jesus whip and condemn them like he did to the merchants in the temple? Because I know I'm not strong enough to forgive themAre they afraid of Jesus coming back and that's why they are killing every child in Gaza? Like Herod did in Bethlehem?
>>18102278Jesus forgives all who repent, and none who do not.
>>18102278Interesting question, because those in Satan's cult (and I'm talking actual demons) do not deserve forgiveness. However, I think you're on to something, because the more light you bring into the world, the less of a stranglehold they have on everybody. I think the important thing is to do good at all times, but also be discerning when trying to do good unto someone. Not every situation is a call to be a superman and a personal savior. Matthew 7:6 >Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you.Matthew 10:16:>Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.Either way, don't try to shoulder the world's problems, just start small and let it spread naturally. God has already won, we just live in his current for the ultimate conclusion.

>>18102278>Would Jesus forgive what's going on in Palestine?As God, He has the right to forgive those who acknowledge they have done wrong, and I believe that He does. He is far more patient and ready to pardon than we would be. But this doesn't include people who are unrepentant about what they have done and are doing, which is the situation I believe the wicked are currently in.>Because I know I'm not strong enough to forgive themWe only need to be concerned about those who are doing us wrong. I don't have the right to forgive what people are doing in other countries that have nothing to do with me, and my forgiveness wouldn't mean anything in that context if I offered it since I'm not the one being wronged. I only have the ability to forgive what's going on around me to the extent that it affects me. One should focus on their personal walk and personally being right with God. In that context, I know that Jesus Christ taught to forgive slights and offenses against us as we would want to be forgiven by the Father."And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses."(Mark 11:25-26)
18, and in some ways I was a failed-atheist a bit sooner. When I was in real distress in my mid-teens I know I couldn't help but pay to Mary like I learned to in Catholic school. -- But I was still a contrarian atheist back then, at least that's what I'd have told you.
