Something I honestly don't get about Christians.

Like okay, you have a book you think God wrote or at least inspired. You got to a club centered around this book every week. Half of them claim to 'read' this book every day.

And yet they don't know SHIT about the bible? Like half the Christians I met don't know who John the Baptist is. 99% of them don't know who the Witch of Endor is. How can you people devote your whole life to some stupid book and not know anything about it.

Like if I read lord of the rings every day and went to weekly fanclub meetings, you'd think after ten years I know stuff about LoTR... but then I don't know who Old Man Willow is?! Like how? How?

I read the bible ONE time ten years ago and I know more about it than almost any christian I've ever met. How are you people this fucking stupid? Like I'm sorry but what the fuck is wrong with you all?

You know, just asking.

Most christians just go to church and have the pastor talk to them, throw a few bucks in the donation plate, then go home.

The real issue is people giving way too much value to Paul's letters.

>Be Saul of Tarsus
>Pharisee who persecutes the fuck out of Christians
>See Jesus once in a vision
>Jesus tells you to stop persecuting his people and go preach for him instead
>Never talk to Jesus again
>Write a bunch of letters to a bunch of churches you helped start, giving advice *you* think would match what Jesus would have wanted
>Years later a bunch of Romans agree with what you have to say and put them in the same book as actual testimony of the words of Christ himself
>Many more years later people treat your advice like it's the word of God itself even though you are just a man and the people who decided upon your inclusion in the Bible are also just men - God had no say in your work's inclusion
>>
>>524172500
He’s right. The overwhelming majority of Christians, at least in America, have literally never even opened a bible.

I became religious just last year and already feel like a scholar compared to almost everyone I talk to.

>>524172414
Atheist here. The Bible is pretty huge. It's also not one book, it's several dozen, most radically different from one another. It's like expecting them to remember all the details of Aesop's entire canon.

I don't believe you read the entire Bible. Nor do I think you know more than the average Christian about it's contents. I grew up in a doctrinaire Christian cult and was exposed to scripture constantly from the time I could read until I was 17 and left the cult. That kind of background isn't even enough to scratch the surface of what's in there.

Typical religious observance don't go through the Bible systematically as a study (mine did, over and over) They instead get boiled-down version from the Priest or Deacon (whatever) in the form of lessons heavily allegorized.

Expecting the average Christian to know who the Witch of Endor was is a stretch, but if they don't know who John the Baptist was, I don't know what to tell you. That's odd. But I think you just pulled that out of your ass too.

I want an anime of Luce and her adventures with her friends Fe, Xin, and Sky on their trek. They would go around the world each week helping people in need and bringing them to Christ and then taking out the demon-of-the-week that tries to stop them. Eventually Jesus himself would show up at the end of the season to take out the big bad. Think Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch or Pretty Cure, only trad Catholic. I'm really surprised the Church isn't using the character in that way, because with the Blessing of God I believe it would be huge.

The first half is a civilizational epic about sandniggers who are neither civilized nor epic.
Then you have the Jesus stuff which is pretty cool, but mainly because of the Greek influence and he makes all those jew nerds cry.
Then you paw through the filing cabinet of some creepy jew named Paul who tells you what to think about Jesus. But hes never met the guy or even read the Gospels, so what does he know?
Its for the best that no Christian reads it because they either become a white israelite or a zionigger

Paul's actions are consistent with someone who thinks he's given a task by God.
But that doesn't mean Christians should suddenly treat his advice as if it is the word of God.\
For all we know, Satan could have popped into his head.

that must be why God instructs christians to do what to do with the paul He blinded

oh and wow, He told THEM how he's going to be the apostle to the gentiles and kings, huh?

this is HUGE! are you also finding all this stuff about paul with me right now??????????

>>524172414
It’s not meant to be read by plebs. It’s a pre-modern version of clerical/legal documents intended to be parsed and disseminated by a case of credentialed elites. It’s the same idea as how no one reads their own country’s tax code or criminal code even though it’s publicly available and anyone could. The whole point of Semitic legalism is for a high priest caste to be established who’s entire legitimacy relies on their autistic desire and ability to read millions of pages of faggotry that no one else has the patience or ability to do. Our secular societies work the exact same way, that’s why lawyers, politicians, and scientists occupy a clergy status in our cultures; they have access to “sacred” knowledge that the plebs are too dumb or tired to read, master, and challenge them on.

Can confirm that in the fanatical "bible based" community I grew up in, the idea of reading the whole thing was seen as pretty crazy. Like the one weird guy in the prayer group would "commit to reading through the bible in a year" and the youth pastor would clap him on the back and tell everyone else that they didn't have to do that. And the guy would but a special "study guide" published in America to give him his chunk of the bible every day. Like wtf just fucking read it

>>524173915
i'm going to assume you're not a Muzelime (a child of satan) and really explain to you what happened with the whole paul thing

a learned pharisee could Not have been a disciple of the pre sacrificed Jesus
because

a learned blind pharisee
having all his computer precise knowledge of the old testament
unlocked by
christian(holy spirit filled) laying on of hands

is what the model YHVH had in mind

when YHVH said israel is going to be a light to the gentiles

paul is the ultimate jew
because his education(capabilities) was inert without the holy spirit letting him see
he received sight and then he tended to the reconciliation of the table of nations

the end

Firstly, the Apostle Paul was actually with the Lord Jesus Christ in person.

And as a great dissension was developing, because the commander was afraid Paul would be torn to pieces by them, he ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks. But on that very night, the Lord stood at his side and said, “Take courage; for as you have solemnly borne witness to My cause at Jerusalem, so you must bear witness at Rome also.”
— Acts 23:10-11

Secondly, the Apostle Peter specifically describes Paul's letters as Scripture.

Therefore, beloved, since you are looking for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless, and consider the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.
— 2 Peter 3:14-16

>the rest of the Scriptures
>>
>>524172414
It's unfortunate, but most people that attend church do not actually believe in their heart that the Bible is the Word of God.
That is why they don't study it in depth.
If they have read the entire Bible, it was probably skim read with parts skipped over.

However, it is only by the Grace of God that one can come to know that the Bible is His Word and have confidence in that Truth to study diligently.
That gift from God is equivalent to salvation.

But you, continue in the things you learned and became convinced of, knowing from whom you learned them, and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be equipped, having been thoroughly equipped for every good work.
— 2 Timothy 3:14-17

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not of works, so that no one may boast.
— Ephesians 2:8-9
>>
>>524174607
don't condemn people who attend church because they're not offended by Jesus being God, life is hard and not everyone has the mental bandwidth for deep bible studies

God will provide and someone will feed those christians, and they are christians

this is an ugly thread, it's not even political, that's one, and the op isn't even christian
>>
>>524172414
Also, what kind of "Christians" are you meeting?
I don't know any professing Christian that has no idea who John the Baptist is.

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As it is written in Isaiah the prophet:
“Behold, I send My messenger ahead of You,
Who will prepare Your way;
The voice of one crying in the wilderness,
‘Make ready the way of the Lord,
Make His paths straight.’”
John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
— Mark 1:1-4

Maybe, the medium at En-dor they might not remember off the top of their heads, but if you simply ask them about Saul talking to Samuel after he died, they will probably know what you are talking about.

So Saul said to his servants, “Seek for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her.” And his servants said to him, “Behold, there is a woman who is a medium at En-dor.”
— 1 Samuel 28:7

There are many people that attend church, just as a box to tick, not because they have any love for God.
This is not condemnation, this is just how things are.

One should place God first in their lives, because there is no other purpose in life other than to serve God.
It is not a radical expectation for a believer to desire to study the Word of God in greater and greater depth, to learn more and more about the One they claim to love.

But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
— Matthew 6:33

>>524175018
my friend, you are Wrong

it's good that this is how fired up you are about being diligent regarding the knowledge of the bible

but someone wouldn't ATTEND church if they were OFFENDED in Jesus

YOU are the guy, thanks be to God, who knows the bible, to FEED His sheep

Something I honestly don't get about Phoneposters.

Like okay, you have a phone you think Science built or at least inspired. You got to a club centered around this phone every 5 minutes. Half of them claim to 'read' this device every day.

And yet they don't know SHIT about the smartphone? Like half the phoneposters I met don't know what microwave radiation is. 99% of them don't know why Steve Jobs died. How can you people devote your whole life to some stupid device and not know anything about it.

Like if I read lord of the rings every day and went to hourly fanclub meetings, you'd think after ten years I know stuff about LoTR... but then I don't know who Old Man Willow is?! Like how? How?

I read the User's Manual ONE time ten years ago and I know more about it than almost any phoneposter I've ever met. How are you people this fucking stupid? Like I'm sorry but what the fuck is wrong with you all?

You know, just asking.

Well, then they obv don't go to Bible Reading Club every Sunday or whatever OP called it in his sad excuse for a post. Seems ot be mostly a US Protestant "problem" though, Catholics aren't sola scriptura at all.
