Churchianity (Religion ) and True Christianity What Is The Difference ?

Welcome to Wondercafe2!

A community where we discuss, share, and have some fun together. Join today and become a part of it!

unsafe, you're still not addressing the poor idea of interpreting scripture in isolation.

I think you NEED community as much as you NEED the Spirit. In fact, I'm not sure that the Spirit works very well in isolation.
 
BetteTheRed ----I personally think I have made it very clear what I believe -----you believe different -----we will never agree as we are on 2 different pages ----engaging with you further on committees will not resolve your belief nor mind -------

This post is not about Committees --it is about no committee or religion is needed for a person to become Born Again ------ that is accepting Christ which changes your corrupted Human Spirit to God's Righteous Spirit ------

This is what this post is about in a nut shell ----

Be Reconciled to God

12 For we do not commend ourselves again to you, but give you opportunity to boast on our behalf, that you may havean answerfor those who boast in appearance and not in heart.13 For if we are beside ourselves,it isfor God; or if we are of sound mind,it is for you.14 For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died;15 and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.
16 Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
 
unsafe, I have a question for you. If you are quite convinced that you will never change your mind on any topic, what do you hope to achieve by talking to people here? Does this not indicate, in and of itself, a need for community?

I honestly don't think you can 'do' Christianity in isolation. You need at least one other person to call you on your bulls**t. It's a bit like AA in that way.

I honestly don't think you can 'do' Christianity in isolation -------This is because you think it is a Religion ----I do not believe it is a Religion --I believe it is a personal relationship ---a one on one -----with Jesus Christ ----

As far as your other comment ----You need at least one other person to call you on your bulls**t. It's a bit like AA in that way.---

You can call me on anything you like --it doesn't bother me ----and as far as you calling what I post bulls**t -----we just think different-- what you say is bulls**t ----I say I'm not surprised you think it is bulls**t ------

Cause this is what God says -----1 Corinthians 1 GWT- :https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+1&version=GW

God’s Wisdom Is Better Than the World’s Wisdom
 
Everyone needs calling on their bulls**t, unsafe, because we're all inclined to come up with all of our own rationales for all of our opinions.

I do apologize if you thought I was speaking to you in isolation. (And you didn't think so, either, because you didn't answer the first part of my question, which WAS directed to you. Why do you bother talking to other people, if there's never an exchange of information? Doesn't this indicate a need for community?)
 
Some people need an isolated state to withdraw light from the Shadows of the script ... neigh spirits upset eM! Thus the lonely hearts oci ety ... a subtle thingy ...

Could there be a hated pool of social thought ... despised by anti-social republicans and literal-conservatives ? A trump card in the dark game!

Yah got to be inquisitive about what heis up to ...
 
Thank you unsafe for knowing who Christ is even if most denominations do not. As a student of a transdenominational postsecondary institution, I assure you that I will give due consideration to sharing with the others at the school to forsake their denominations and turn here to you for Christian guidance. Most especially, of course, I would be interested in reaching my coursemates. Before I do so, however, can you please tell me if any of these denominations are among the few that do truly seek to know Christ - Messianic Jewish, Seventh Day Adventist, Presbyterian, Alliance, Free Methodist, Pentecostal, Fellowship Baptist. Also, since I want to truly know Christ, how can I too become an Unsafian?

This would be well Jae .That you speak to those in your class . To except Christ Jesus as there leader and no other". For HE and He alone is The Head" no Denomination is right . Only Christ is Head of all belief and is the only way to GOD The Father.There is no Christian in Christianity with out Christ . It is ianity.

Thank you airclean for your encouragement. Don't worry my friend, my school is a Christian seminary, and my cohortmates and I are all Christians.

Thank"s be To GOD. For I have heard some teaching in Christian seminary is not that good.

Amen to that Brother :sneaky:

I feel that the teaching within the particular program that I'm in is excellent. I feel that's it's as good as at any seminary in Canada; and in terms of understanding missional theology the best.
 
But it is teaching you to question your BS, isn't it? You do seem to have a wider theology than you appeared to have prior to entering seminary. (Or at least a wider understanding of its underpinnings.)

I would describe my theology now as being missional now as a result largely of seminary, rather than evangelical which it once was. Also, I feel that a major advantage which a transdenominational seminary gives to its students is the opportunity to learn from different Christian faith traditions.

Jae--There would be few Happier than I to hear this. I believe a Minister in The Church of Christ today . Has one of the hardest jobs in the Christian walk and not the highest paying either .:)
