Anon accused that OP of scriptkiddy'g, and he said that he simply prayed to God Almighty, then guessed. That too appeared to elicit a degree of faith in some Anons.

Now simply pray that the few for whom God used this modest tech 'sign & wonder' [1] to convince some that He's real, I say that these men will soon truly have a face-to-face encounter with Jesus Christ.

This will sound odd but I promise I am not lying, I had a dream that I got a post with similar digits (yes, I occasionally dream about browsing and posting on imageboards) so I was a bit taken aback to see this when I awoke. But I believe everything happens for His divine will and I trust in the Lord Jesus Christ Son of God so I am also not surprised in a way.

I've been reading the Bible more often and praying more often lately and doing more than ever to flee from sin in my life so perhaps I am more in touch with God and was able to in some sense tell that this was going to happen. Or maybe it's sheer coincidence. Either way, I trust that the Lord will use me and other imageboard users to deliver His divine will on Earth as it is in Heaven. That is to say, I hope people are won over to Christ by such seemingly trivial matters although I personally don't trust 4chan anymore and think its userbase is as close to beyond saving as it gets.

As of right now we only have three banners. I'd like there to be more, and I'm sure someone somewhere has saved the banners from previous iterations of /christian/, 8chan and otherwise. If you have them, post them here, or feel free to make your own as well! The only requirement is that they are 300x100 and of high quality.

"9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? 10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. 11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain."

>Sunday was not the original sabbath.
Sunday is not the sabbath now. It's the Lord's Day. I've also never heard a Seventh Day Adventist explain using the Bible why we should worship on the sabbath. God's commandment regarding the sabbath is that no one should do any work on the sabbath - not that it is a day of worship (Exodus 31:14-15; 35:2-3). I think the Adventists take the tradition of the Jews (meeting in synagogues on the sabbath, which is recorded of them in the Bible), and assume that was part of it. But if Jewish practice governs, then Adventists are violating the sabbath by driving to and from ch

Even if you don't count it as theft, it's still breaking copyright laws, which (even by Christian Anarchist standards) we're suppose to follow even if the government is our objective enemy.
Lately I've been struggling with working out the morality of digital piracy (or perhaps, to be more precise, obedience to copyright law). On one hand I don't see how you can really justify downloading (or streaming or torrenting or whatever other method you can come up with) a movie (or TV show, book, song, piece of software, etc.) that's brand-new, still on the shelves or in the theaters, without paying; on the other hand, I can't help but feel like there has to be at least a diminished gravity to the sin as the product gets older. This is conceded by essentially everyone and is enshrined in the concept of the public domain; no-one believes that you're stealing from companies who sell bound volumes of Shakespeare plays because you downloaded a text from the Internet or

The closest example I can think of, was coming across Hare Krishnas. But they seemed more willing to talk about the contents of the Bhagavad Gita than to engage in full on apologetics.

Matthew 22
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 'On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.'

Galatians 5
For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; 'Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.'
♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍♥️🤍

the music thread is gone so I'm posting these by themselves instead. At my assembly today it was reminded that ALL the law is fulfilled and HANGS on the commandment of love. How much do we make sure we're right with the law and doing the right thing and we ignore the actual focus of God and his will from the beginning his commandment. Death experiences have told us of the great love when in the light of God. Many of us have known moments when we have been put in front of God's love and how much we want to live in it forever and how much we will live in it forever.

I think the Satanic conspiracy is better for Christians than the racial Jewish conspiracy. The Old testament faith of ancient Judaism Jews became Christians and "those that say they're Jews but are not" are Jews that study the Talmud and the Kabbalah and according to Texe Mars worship a serpent. So the Satanic conspiracy also has an answer to the Jews as well as the Golden calf during the time of Moses.

1. They know what the doctrine is. They wilfully choose to subvert it. Not just ignore it - they lie and say it confirms the things they're pushing. You know this.

2. Their dogmatism, i.e. their willingness to excommunicate you for wrongthink is stronger than mine is. If they're pushing people out then there isn't middle ground to lean into. You know this.

Your psy operation, produce evidence or examples please, and your examination of the occult maybe worthwhile except that it's less powerful than to do as you said and get stuck into the bible instead.

There's no "I win" to any of this stuff here either, if it wasn't worthwhile to post I wouldn't do it. I'm not gonna sit here and flex piety on you as I tried to demonstrate prior that I haven't got any.

>to be ignorant of occult powers
There are no occult powers. Show me an occultist with powers and I will show you a fraud. Modern occultists are frauds and pimp out book after book to gullible idiots. They are no better than the self-help crowd. If you had occult powers, you wouldn't be here that is for sure.
"Satanist" is a politically correct term for a Jew or a wannabe Jew (freemason, left-hand-path occultist, whatever) anyway.
>There are no occult powers.
There exists one, and it's a terrible power. It is called Deception. Occultists (and Jews, since an Occultist is basically a Gentile who desperately wants to be a Jew) are people who are really good at swindling, lying, and cheating, which certainly does help them to get ahead in the society of liars, cheaters and swindlers.

Examples of Noble Christians doing there duty and following scripture



Foreigners will rebuild your walls,
    and their kings will serve you.
Though in anger I struck you,
    in favor I will show you compassion.
 Your gates will always stand open,
    they will never be shut, day or night,
so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations—
    their kings led in triumphal procession.
For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish;

I don't think there are going to be too many alternatives in the near future. Given the sheer number of young people who got completely suckered into transitioning, sometimes committing irreversible damage to their own bodies in the process, the number of people who realize that they have ruined their lives will increase over the coming years. We will likely see more instances like this alongside more instances, unfortunately, of suicides.

I'm looking to broaden my horizons with some other Christian forums (ones that either Catholic or multi-denominational are preferred, but ultimately you can recommend whatever you want). Really, I'm just looking for places that have at least some activity and have users under the age of sixty.
>>27136 (OP) 
There really aren't any that leads to any truth or free expression. /christian/ combines the freedom of an anon imageboard and the rigor of classical debate and rhetorical styles used since antiquity. Message board style forums are moderated to the point of stifling debate because of the femininity of modern Christian men, especially zoomers. Even in private group chat scenarios, when feelings inevitably get hurt, the moderator will ban the winner because of hurt feelings on their or the loser's part and deletes everything, so no one gets a chance to make their own conclusion or grow from a rhetorical beatdown. This is the best format there is, which is why its an impasse between the Romans, the Orthodox, and Baptists as representatives of protestant apostates. This reflects actual, real life discussions and their outcomes I have had, because at the end of the day most will default to what they grew up with, as very few people can be swayed solely with words in our hyper-pluralized day and age. It is a pity.

Agreed. I would go further and say that this is all spiritual warfare where the devil doesn't want us to congregate, especially online. I am going to a local church at the moment but I am ambivalent about it, but online is where I can truly let me zeal shine for the Lord. One of the email lists I was part of got taken down for the past few years due to some technical issue. Anyways, stay strong brothers (and sisters) and read your Bible.
