Today is Sunday, the Sabbath! It's a special day of rest that God gave to all of us as a gift! Because God loves you and wants you to be happy. So be sure to rest, relax and reenergize today, and give thanks to God for all that he's given you!
>>12029126>Today is Sunday, the Sabbath!lol wut?
>>12029128yes, the Sabbath is on Sunday, not on Friday like.... some certain people believe... *narrows eyes suspiciously*
>>12029126thanks anon! but i don't think god likes ai slop.god gave us the gift of creation, not machines that bastardize the conceptYour fortune: Better not tell you now
>>12029131The Sabbath is on Saturday. Measured from sunset on Friday till sunset on Saturday.Christians don't observe the Sabbath they observe Sunday as the Lord's day.Some christians denominations do observe the Sabbath, but it's still on Saturday.Dunno who's feeding you lies...
>>12029136okay I don't know what satanic sect of "christianity" (or worse, judaism) you practice, but in the one TRUE Christian church- the Catholic Church, the Sabbath is observed on Sunday.
SHUT THA FUCKKKUPPaaaaaaaaaa-Juicy JYour fortune: Godly Luck
>>12029136also you are basing this not on what's written in the Bible, but on the hebrew calendar.The hebrew calendar is not the word of God and never was.

>>12029126I had the worst headache with the most intense hallucinations and IRL nightmares in my entire life today. I felt like dying several times a second. Is that also God's way of showing love?Your fortune: You will meet a dark handsome stranger
>>12029197It stopped didn't it, be thankful.
>>12029149>>12029145>>12029141>>12029136>>12029131This is a meaningless debate and distracts from true devotion and worship of Christ. Calendars- all calendars, are a human creation, not the work of God. God commands us to observe a day of rest, and that's all that matters. As long as you live a life of devotion to Christ and do your best to follow God's commands, the stupid details like this don't matter. They are a distraction sent by Satan himself.
>>12029244Ahh another christcuck schizo.Dubs
>>12029251Religion makes more sense than believing in an intergenerational debt based economy where governments owe money to a private institution that prints all our money. Religion is hardly anything to be mad about in comparison to the literal modern slavery we live in.
>>12029253I am not mad at religion, I just think he's a schizo because he thinks Sunday is the Sabbath, then he started babbling about calenders.
>>12029253Christianity is becoming more popular among the younger generations, who have become jaded and disillusioned at the wokeism, cynicism and atheism of the millennials. Let's pray for a true spiritual reawakening and a return to devotion to Christ as a way of life!
>>12029264>>12029253See what I mean.If anything it's the opposite.
>>12029264The thing about god I can't seem to grasp properly is why he would send his son in one generation thousands of years ago and expect the rest of us to accept our ancestors'words as fact, when we know that many of their beliefs at the time now were off. If god loved us and wanted to give us a fair chance we should have a Jesus too.>>12029266I think many younger people are becoming very conservative, but idk about religious per say.
beautiful words, brother. God bless you <3
>>12029278The truth is, God doesn't ask you to accept Christ simply because an old book says so. God shows himself to us in so many ways, and there are countless paths that lead to Christ. Keep your heart and mind open, and don't harden your soul with cynicism and doubt, and Jesus will surely find you. God does not leave anyone behind, and believe me, there will be a time in your life where Jesus will come to you. It is up to you whether or not you accept him.
Keep the Sabbath holy.
>>12029253why wouldn't you believe in that? it, demonstrably, exists. if you don't believe it does then you're deluded.
>>12029321anon seems to be conflating belief with worship and probably using a lot of magical thinking (“false beliefs about the capability of thoughts, actions or words to cause or prevent undesirable events”

>>12029340hey buddywhat should do with my afternoonshould i read this, or should i write walls of text to try and get my dumbass off disabilitya catholic priest gave me a permanent pass on going to church, saying that because i'm autistic, god will let me purgatory for this sin, and i'm also highly contagious right now, so that's an awful ideamy college roommate got me this for christmas, but it didn't arrive by christmas day. the bookmark is where i currently left off in the new testament because i'm taking his advice - read the new one first, or the old one won't make any sensealso, your existence in >>12029299would be appreciated
>>12029365you're still going on about that? i think i sent 3 messages to you last night and by now you've spent hours talking about me and how i'm wrong. i'll say for the last time, i'm not arguing with you
or should i just relax and play tetris or MEME WARRIORS or catch up on my youtube watch later queue, because i've pulled multiple all-nighters lately
>>12029368that's because you've been checkmatedafter i slept on it, i flashed back to my worthless English degree, and realized you were factually objectively wrong

basically you're playing chess OTB and you're like can i move this piece? this one? this one? this one? this one? and then once you exhaust every possible you can make you finally realize no, you can't win
>>12029376yuji sakai is running a demoralization campaign be advised
>>12029375the kjv is really hard for people to understand since most of the idioms it uses do not translate well to a modern audience, and also it includes some lines that we have since learned are forgeries like the johannine comma and matthew 5:22
>>12029375i can't read the king james version, because i struggle with poetryalso, this kjv my neighbor gave me is a disorganized mess with no table of contents and it's impossible to find specific thingsif i could read ancient languages, i would read the bible in the ancient langauges instead, so i decided i need to read a scholarly modern translation that was his preferred copy of the bible, and as a former atheist, i was the literal devil's advocate in the room shooting holes in their interpretations when they were having bible study in our suitei got As in poetry classes, but it felt like work, and i can't read this thing. i don't know if i should give it back to my neighbor, or just keep it in my box of books
>>12029386the niv is not a scholarly modern translations, for that i would recommend the nrsvue
>>12029388under section 420 code 69, the bateman act, i am legally obligated to check your dubs
In 1967, the New York Bible Society (now called Biblica) took responsibility for the project and hired a team of 15 scholars from various Evangelical Christian denominations and from various countries.[15][11] The initial "Committee on Bible Translation" consisted of Leslie Carlson, Edmund Clowney, Ralph Earle, Jr., Burton L. Goddard, R. Laird Harris, Earl S. Kalland, Kenneth Kantzer, Robert H. Mounce, Charles F. Pfeiffer, Charles Caldwell Ryrie, Francis R. Steele, John H. Stek, J. C. Wenger, Stephen W. Paine, and Marten Woudstra. The New Testament was released in 1973 and the full Bible in 1978.[11] A UK version was also released to accommodate differences between American English and British English.[16]so once again, i had to wiki something, but you're factually objectively incorrect, and that's why i rated a queen in the rate [s4s] in the rate [s4s] namefigs thread, sorry you don't get built in any matchup at all unless the opponent has like their fucking mind
there are two reasons i'm constantly making typosi'm not used to typing on a flat keycap keyboard, only ibm style keyboards with a wrist wrest, and my nerve failure
>>12029398i'm just saying it's not scholarly because it changes some parts of the text for theological reasons like translating 'son of man' as 'human one.' or altering some of the claims in the epistles to elevate belief in jesus over the works performed
>>12029409if only professor walter kelber of wagner did not retire, right before i was going to contact him, because i learned about gnosticism from him and was ask to him to just send me the syllabus of every class you got and i'll figure out where the books in a library somewhere
>>12029382there's a reason people still read shakespearefor all the criticism and excuses the kjv is the best study bible for any student.people spend years reading white papers to get a cisco cert.but they glaze over when reading the bible.some people are lazy and some just don't want to learn.they see no reason to study this book or history.the reformation didn't happen by accident and it created the united states.but that shit's BORING rite?
>>12029417stop making sense anon.Your fortune: ( ´_ゝ`)フーン
>>12029417as someone with a worthless english degree, he was the Jerry Bruckheimer of his eramost of his plays suck, and politically, he was trying to suck the king of england's dick with a few he wrote, instead of what write what actualy happened in history
Blessed thread.
>>12029417you say 'there's a reason people still read shakespeare,' but the kjv was made fun of for sounding antiquated and unnatural back when it came out. it's not some great use of the english language because it doesn't communicate its ideas clearly. if you're formally studying the bible, you should be doing so in the original languages, but if you want to just learn about the bible, you should be using a translation which synthesizes all of the manuscripts that we have available to us (which is a lot more than tyndale had.) also the enlightenment created the united states, not the protestant reformation
i got a C- in shakespare one, even though the professor was pretty based, so i took shakespeare two the following semester, and became we were cigarette smokers, he'd always give me some extra bonus lesson, and he was "why are you in this class? you hate shakespeare", and i said "yes i do, but now that i understand how your tests work, i view this as a challenge, and i'm going to get an A", that made no sense to him, but i got my A
basically, i was getting As on all my papers, Fs on his first few tests, but once i under the papers were about the philosophy, and the tests were about who the characters were, and who did what and why, and that's what i needed to memorize, i had no trouble study for his tests, and he didn't grade on attendance, but i liked his lectures, so i always showed up unless i slept through my alarm clock
