Why is gen z obsessed with religion but won't go to church? Is it because they have the internet which is like an infinite library of knowledge where you can access literal PhD level topics in theology and philosophy?
>>18516513Because they realise that the miracle of existence and the mysteries of the human condition cannot be answered by our incredibly secular, hyper nominalist culture that believes in strict materialism. They are aching for the spiritual in a world derived of it. Therapy and “mindfulness” do nothing, they’re fake substitutes for an actual connection to the transcendent.Many of them do go to church. They are often decried as “larpers” by those that hate religion. It seems whatever you do people will mock you.
>>18516515Yeah and the vast majority of them are going to hell anyway because they reject the holy KJV Bible.
>>18516516We can’t know who will end up in Hell or who isn’t. Wanting people to go to Hell because they practice the “wrong interpretation” is a sign you aren’t taking the faith seriously. This is no joke.
>>18516520>We can't know who will end up in Hell or who isn't.The KJV is clear that anybody who rejects Jesus Christ is going to burn in hell forever and ever and ever. The KJV Bible explicitly teaches>In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.So according to the KJV, the KJV is God, it is the same as Jesus, and therefore rejecting the KJV=rejecting Jesus=rejecting God=going to hell.
>>18516523Stop pretending to be retarded and dishonest. Why are you doing this?
Church is boring bro
>>18516525>Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.You continue to assure me of my salvation. Enjoy hell.
>Why is gen z obsessed with religion but won't go to church?Because you can be performative online, in church not so much
>>18516513Gen Z is extremely anti social. They grew up watching people play pretend on TV who are unaware of their existence and never look them in the eyes so they got so used to it that being around people who look them in the eyes and try to interact with them freaks them out and makes them uncomfortable.
>>18516630Projection
>>18516513Because religion isn't just abrahamic religions.Why would you trust the church?They are made of flesh and paper.
>>18516513I strongly believe in the golden rule and I wouldn't want some weirdo like me imposing themselves on my community.
>>18516630Imagine thinking zoomers watch tv lol. This is a massive boomer projection.
>>18516515>They are aching for the spiritual in a world derived of it.>They are often decried as “larpers”That’s why
>>18516650What is Netflix? The Radio?
>>18516513Gen Z doesn’t actually believe in anything
>>18516513Church has been replaced by social media.
>>18516513Every generation recognizes the mistakes of the previous one. Millenials recognized that boomer religiosity is mostly performative and content-less so they embraced complete materialism. Gen Zs recognized Millenials threw out the baby with the bathwater and are trying to restore the human perspective, which, besides paying attention to physics around you, also includes what we'd call spirituality.
>>18516513I unironically feel social anxiety in the church. It's getting better, but it has always been like this, since I was little kid. Also in the churches where I live they like loud music and it's annoying, most of the mass before the homily is about loud instruments being blasted on speakers with poor acoustics. In the past I also used to dislike the get up, sit down, get up, sit down, get up, sit down but today I don't mind that anymore. The loudness problem seems to have been getting worse because they are now catering to the converted former Evangelical public.
>>18516523>the KJV is God, it is the same as JesusI know you're trolling but there are protestants who unironically believe this. Equating the bible with God is idolatry.
>>18516513There were news on the wing that the psychedelic mind contemplates the universe temporally and atemporally or something like that
>>18516513it's because the gen z "religious revival" isn't real
>>18516513It is because online appearances are their reality.
>>18516523>So according to the KJV, the KJV is GodI didn't know the KJV was the fourth person in the Trinity
>>18516513Because we're approaching the end and people are desperate for anchors to a society they never actually experienced.
>>18516513its because gen z isn't actually obsessed with religion
>>18517642The KJV was the second coming of Jesus, who is the word of God.
>>18516523The Word is Jesus who is the Logos in Christian theology.
>>18516820Reconstructionist Judaism is GOATED for this. I admire DR Justin Sledge and his approach to religion.
>>18516630You’re old
>>18517691Jesus is the word of God itself so when God speaks it is Jesus speaking. Jesus has spoken every thing God has said. So when God said eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth it was Jesus who said it.But then Jesus when he quotes the word of god says "remember it was said, eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth"Instead of saying "Remember when I said" or "when I spoke"He calls it the law of Moses instead of his law and he doesn't refer to Moses as his servants.
>>18516515They are larpers though. Currently people are less religious than 40 years ago, or even 20 years ago. Tradcath larpers just use twitter as an echo chamber and present an illusion about a religious revival.
>>18517668Yeah, not sure what OP's on about, the American population is drifting away from religion, not towards it
>>18517927>>18517919To the extent that Gen Z is more church- or mosque-going, it has to do with them being browner than Millennials, plus raw contrarianism to being raised by secular parents and schools
>>18517938Millennials were majority Christian tho
>>18517938Pablito Hernandez and Mahmoud al-Mahmoud being religious is par for the course, as low IQ browns tend to be very superstitious. Im talking about actual people, amongst white zoomers there is no religious revival.
>>18516513>Why is gen z obsessed with religionI'm so-called Gen Z (if we consider that "Gen Z" is 1997-2012) and I don't obsessed with religion. Maybe because I'm not shithead amerimutt.Also all that Gen-ish shit has no connection to reality.
>>18516515Because they just half ass their development into religion and they look like a pop star thanking God for the success thank thanking God for creating the rules that govern life.>It seems whatever you do people will mock you.Religion was always mocked by non religious people whose temper towards different life's attitudes is as big as a mountain than a mustard seed.
>>18516796people will storm the churches once they realize it's the only camera-free social place left
Early Zoomer here. Yesterday I went to church, and then I realized something.I don't actually believe in any of this stuff. I don't believe in the Holy Trinity or Transsubstatiation, or the Immaculate Conception of Virgin Mary.I go to church every Sunday, but I don't believe in any of this stuff. Sure, maybe there is something beyond the universe that is the ultimate cause of everything in the universe, but to go from there to talking about divine miracles just seems like too big of a logical leap for me.
>>18516883No there aren’t. Steven Anderson is not a Protestant.
>>18516513>Why is gen z obsessed with religioni dont think they are obsessed at all, but there is a resurgence of people talking about religion because we live at weimar times where young people see there is nothing for them in this degenerate society and no way forward like there was for their fathers. you cant buy a house, have a proper career, find a non whore wife, so people want to see whats the point of any of this hell.> but won't go to churchbecause people deep down understand that basically all world religions cant be proven, they are a coping mechanism, a comfort blanket of cosmic justice for the people to cope better with how shit this reality is.

>>18517919Larping can be a good thing sometimes
>>18516513Because they're chuds and their pope is nick fuentes
>>18516513>Why is gen z obsessed with religionthey aren't, as evidenced by>won't go to church
>>18516513Because gen Z isn't obsessed with religion, you fell for propaganda.
>>18516516>>18516523The KJV says the earth is flat with a solid dome firmament that keeps the water on the outside, like the earth is a snowglobe under water. It is not the word of God.
>>18519160Nah it doesn't say this.
>>18516513the only religion zoomers are obsessed with is socialism and its manifestations (communism, fascism and LGBT). if a zoomer is pretending to be religious it's only for clicks and attention. mine is a fundamentally narcisistic generation.
>>18516513Too many old people and zoomers are gerontophobes.
I used to go to a Protestant Evangelical Church that was conservative, the pastor was incredibly polite and hard working, but ultimately the whole service was boring for 21 year old me. Felt more like a college lecture with sing alongs. There was nothing about it that made me think it was an ancient mystery cult about a Divine man born from a virgin mother and sacrificed by an ungrateful forlorn race for the good of all Gentilekind
Zoomers like the aesthetique of the Roman Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodox Church, afterall who doesn't? But the whole "the Divine Father orders Jews to massacre Gentile babies and rape Gentile girls" is a bit much, don't ya think?
>>18521253> There was nothing about it that made me think it was an ancient mystery cult about a Divine man born from a virgin mother and sacrificed by an ungrateful forlorn race for the good of all Gentilekindnormalfags taint everything with their insipid banality. it's like wondering why the trendy neighborhood became soulless after bohemian artist types got priced out by office wagies
>>18516513The church sadly is filled with legalists who teach that the building, its services held, are what saves, but it is the belief on Jesus Christ’s name, his blood he shed, to worship the true and living God, that saves and provides the fullness of God. Not the church building and its activities. You can be with your family and clean up your grandmother’s poop between her legs that has dementia that can’t do it herself at your own family homes. Not at church. But you can go to church to help someone else’s grandmother if you have more time on your hands. Get it? If you didn’t like taking care of your own family, then God will give you a new one if that’s what you really really need, where you can continue to worship Him and they will help you do that. From people who are specialized to do that that went to college , even though it isn’t required for someone to have a college degree to pastor a church. You can do it yourself if you want. But some people experienced the legalistic attack from people saying no, the church IS those things, and you need to come every time its doors are open. Otherwise you are not worshiping God right. Or maybe some people got attacked by people doing this with their actions, but they would still say all the right things. “Like I know you aren’t supposed to , but I do care more about the services and building than the actual spirit of just believing.”God told Abraham that it was his works of unbelief that sinned against him and his own wife and children’s future. Islam is the actual physical manifestation of Muslims , Abraham’s sins with Hagar, from his unbelief, that led to wild middle eastern Muslims who don’t just go away. They repopulate and come back with armies. Russia and Israel can’t ever stop them. It is eternal as long as they harden themself to Jesus Christ. Just like Jews harden, the Muslims also harden and believe they are somehow God’s people and not them. Which is like a mirror.
>>18516513>Why is gen z obsessed with religionLARPing. Young people are actually self aware about it. They LARP identities but don't do or believe anything sincerely. There's no sincerity in anything.
The mirror is about what is on your other side? A heart that has peace and love in it or pride? A pure heart and a good conscience ultimately believes in Jesu Christ our Lord and Savior for our sins who died and shed his own righteous blood on the cross for the world’s sins. But the heart of pride, the first sin ever committed was by Lucifer against God, because of his pride, to rebel against God.So some young people saw the legalism and just decided to enjoy the space that internet gives them from those people. But even they realize that actually going to church is still a human connection that is missing when you do it that way. But it still provides a space to read the bible for their self (KJV), and really get deep into the world’s problems and go higher.Abraham’s works were to believe in God’s promise to him that he would have the messiah come out of his line, that He exists and can do anything, including Sarah his wife (marriage is defined as one man to one woman in holy marriage, a sin to break that faithfulness) who was like 90/75 years old to give birth to that messiah to come. Even then it was a miraculous birth for Sarah. But they decided unfaithfulness was the only option because Sarah thought “I am an old woman, I can’t give birth at this point.” So back then, for Abraham and Sarah, they chose the worldly reality of “the world says we can’t have children, there is no way to have kids now, this God thing must be a lot of wishful silly thinking… and the reality is we are about to die of old age, and it is hurting Sarah to have to think about God’s promise when her bones hurt to get up every day.”Meaning God counts our works to just believe in the promises we were given. Believing and living in that day to day, even if you just get up and live your life believing God will ultimately provide the miracle, is our works. Taking care of one’s family is our job. God said one who doesn’t take care of their family members
is worse than an infidel. An infidel means an unbeliever. So to be made worse than an infidel for putting the church building’s people first over your actual direct family members if you are in direct responsibility for them means you aren’t just going to hell, God is actually preparing (actively) some really evil things to happen to you right now. Course His mercy is always present in that judgement. I’ve seen church leaders have issues with their own family and then put the church first over their family, and not take care of their family’s needs. Then they don’t realize, that if they can’t take care of their wife or kids, then they can’t take care of the church, and are actively placing those sins on the congregation. So you see why God used to just kill the high priest if he had sins back in the old covenant days. With Jesus Christ, he is now our high priest, so as long as people believe in Lord Jesus Christ, they are receiving the blessing of the fullness of God without the need of anything else. Not even the Roman Catholic Church or Judaism or Islam.
Essentially, the Roman Catholic Church has Islam and Judaism are placing their sins (the sins of Abraham and Hagar, and Peter’s sins of wielding the sword to prevent them from crucifying him and believing Jesus founded his church on him alone, and not the spiritual meaning that it was on his faith in Jesus Christ as the messiah) on christians who believe in the Word of God having power on its own by belief and prayer and living in God’s Grace, and that true believers are in a spiritual invisible kingdom already not of this world and connected as one body. Which even goes and penetrates beyond the marrow of the Roman Catholic church’s arrogance and artificial exclusion.If you have ever eaten at a fine dining restaurant and they say you need a reservation to eat there, then this is not Christian because the gospel is inherently open to all to be saved. Which they withhold. That’s called the heart of pride. But there are people within that heart of pride church that made promises to Jesus Christ, that they would marry him. So it remains to be seen what this antichrist does. Even woman who made promise to marry me, and who confessed the same Jesus Christ that I know to keep her promise to marry me, and then was forced to say she wants nothing to do with Jesus Christ spiritually or His Word.Either she was really saved or was never saved.If you live in darkness and never forgive the trespasses against your neighbor, the non Catholics, then you reveal her heart like an ultimatum. But everyone has time till they die in the first life so that they can accept Jesus into their heart and cast the heart of pride out. So that is why Roman Catholic Church , Judaism, and Islam all suffer and larp as third worlders in the earth, believing that their earthly works are finalized, and that Jesus won’t be able to undo it when he comes back.
I believe that those people are filled with fear because of their pride, because the Bible KJV says when Jesus comes back to the earth, he fulfills everything that was invisible that they blasphemed and spewed their wrath and hatred at in this first life.So think about that for a moment. I watched Roman Catholics do certain actions on the earth to “undo” certain things that oppose them and their church and pope. So that means it really peaves them off when things are prophesied that all of their efforts are going to be undone. Even their promises they made to us and then they broke and annulled by the pope.
Because you see, my marriage to my wife and my belief in Jesus Christ to the only true and living God has become a living sword of the Holy Spirit. It means if you ever really were the pope and the true church of God, that my wife would have married me like she promised me twice 33 years apart already. Because I even did what the scriptures said and “love believes in all things.” So I even endured my hope and belief in it that it would, and it actually did the opposite and hardened against her own promises. Proving that the pope and the Roman Catholic Church is not the true church, and is actually a church of hell that torments the saints, and murders them. Even with promises it made to me. The law says that is my wife now, and to be faithful to her promises she gave to me.I will pray for you, and ask my God to bless you, and be good unto you, since you cursed, were evil, and murdered me. Kthx for listening.
