Questions for Christians

Is antisemitism Satanic or Luciferian?

Are non-believers in your faith condemned to eternal hell and damnation?

:clown_face:

Not a Christian, though I do advocate for the gospel preached by Jesus. For all intents and purposes, the foundational concepts of Christianity are antithetical to the gospel preached by Jesus. As such, the result is “Your Christians are so unlike your Christ”.

That sounds very interesting, can you extrapolate on that more?

:clown_face:

It’s an interesting amusing timeline we live in now as an observing Buddhist outsider myself, the Satanic Panic has infected American politics everywhere where rational discourse has been completely thrown out the window abandoned where now everything revolves around demons or demonology.

Satan and his Epstein baby sacrificed beef jerky is the boogeyman within every shadow where if you criticize the Zionist or Jewish political establishment antisemitism is now considered religiously Satanic. You’re a living demon under Christian belief system to politically question Zionism or Jews. You’re the embodiment of the antichrist.

It’s an era where supersessionists are challenging dispensationalists and where the supersessionists themselves are being called pagans, blasphemers, or Satanists for not kneeling under Jewish authority as Christians anointing them as the divinely chosen people above all others.

Finally it is an era where Israeli Jews are drumming up Christians to fight in a holy war against Muslims who are also by Christian definition Satanic.

It’s a pretty horrifying timeline of events we’re all living in.

It requires an individual to transform themselves from an unrighteous being to a righteous being. The righteous do not commit sin. One is either righteous or unrighteous. It’s a strict dichotomy. The standard for righteousness is “love your neighbor as you love yourself” and the Golden Rule which pretty much amount to the same thing.

Compare that to Christianity

What about Jesus with the sword upon the time of Revelations? Is he still peaceful, righteous, and loving then?

:clown_face:

Jesus preached His gospel from the beginning of His ministry through the crucifixion. The words attributed to Him at the time by the writers of the four Gospels contain His gospel. Jesus repeatedly emphasized the importance of those words. For all intents and purposes, they are the only words of value in the NT.

Mr. A is your father still living?
If he is you should take these questions up with him.
You clearly have abandonment issues.

What did Jesus king of kings and the prince of peace mean by this below?

Why does the rabbi seem so violent towards non-believers?

Explain it to me as Christians.

Matthew 13:47-50

47 “Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. 48 When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away. 49 This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous 50 and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

No takers on Jesus getting off on throwing non-believers into furnaces of fire I see.

:clown_face:

Once again, not a Christian.

Jesus repeatedly emphasized the fact that He spoke using figurative language. Why take the “furnace” literally?

Also note that according to Jesus the division is between the righteous and the unrighteous - NOT between “believers” and “non-believers” as Christians would typically frame it - and you’ve echoed in your question. The question that you should ask Christians is whether they actually follow Jesus or those other than Jesus.

BTW, as I understand it, @Bob no views himself as a Christian. That said, he does seem to continue to stand with one foot in.

I am confused, I thought Matthew being a part of the gospels is the word of God himself? You said so earlier in the thread.

You’re saying we shouldn’t take being thrown into a furnace of fire literally? That seems entirely odd, if that’s the case it shouldn’t be written at all that way, and yet clearly it very much is.

:clown_face:

Because as I wrote, “Jesus repeatedly emphasized the fact that He spoke using figurative language”. Not sure what you’re failing to understand.

What does being thrown into a furnace of fire suppose to mean then?

:clown_face:

Why not take it as an exhortation to take making oneself righteous extremely seriously?

I assume when the Christians were killing pagans in ancient Europe, killing Muslims during the crusades, and killing off the indigenous in American colonialism people took those parables very seriously.

How seriously should we interpret them?

:clown_face:

Those would be Christians rather than followers of the gospel preached by Jesus. Christians don’t understand much of what Jesus was saying. To understand the implications of that see John 8:43-44.

As I wrote earlier
For all intents and purposes, the foundational concepts of Christianity are antithetical to the gospel preached by Jesus. As such, the result is “Your Christians are so unlike your Christ”.

Matthew 41-46

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Sounds like eternal hell for non-believers to me.
