Blessings, Brothers. I appreciate the idea of mastering OT Hebrew, but I wonder how feasible it would be without ZOG contamination and such shenanigans? Should I stop just fter appreciting some passages and songs, or should I venture beyond niqqudot and basic grammar? Or should I do something else entirely, like reading the Peshitta or the Septuagint? This thread doesn't need to become 'denomination-sensitive'. Simply assume I'm a layman who wishes a closer and breadpilled contact with the Lord and his Word. Thanks.
>>27050 (OP) 
Honestly just go with the Septuagint. You can still learn biblical Hebrew, there is nothing ZOG related about that, especially since there are parts of the Dead Sea Scrolls that are closer to Masoretic text than Septuagint and vice versa. So, it could still prove to be helpful.

>tldr Just buy Septuagint or avoid purchasing any OT from a Jewish publishing company.

I would expect one of the better ways for someone not in organized theological studies is to simply study the words of the text itself, comparing it the the translations. IMHO, there is simply no better site for this than Bible Hub. For example:
https://biblehub.com/psb/genesis/1.htm
https://biblehub.com/parallel/genesis/1.htm

I'm really pleased to see that you're concerned about staying free of (typically anti-Christian [for obvious reasons]) "interpretations" of the 'Khazarian Mafia' (ie, talmudic judaism) of today. Godspeed your studies, Anon!  :)

I should also add this version:
https://biblehub.com/interlinear/genesis/1.htm

It's more confusing for the English reader at first (but only at first, until you get used to reading from right-to-left), but it's actually easier to do in-depth analysis once you're acclimated to it.

Thread for discussing and sharing literature relevant to the Christian faith.

I bought a copy of The Pilgrim's Progress, I read it years ago in high school and I really wanted to go through it again without staring at a PDF, and it makes for good reading before bed. I had no idea there was a part two in the story as well, where after Christian makes it to the Celestial City his wife and children go on their own journey to it as well. Apparently in high school we only ever read part one.

What have you been reading lately?

>Would like suggestions for what to start next
I am just about to finish book 3 The Sword of the Lictor of the Book of New Sun series. It is a masterful series, the Christian themes are there but not in your face like the Chronicles of Narnia series, and are probably hidden a bit more than even The Lord of the Rings. Some elements do stand right out such as a lot of the characters throughout the story are named after early Christian martyrs and saints. So if you want a challenge I would definitely recommend this series but pair it with the Alzabo Soup podcast.
https://www.alzabosoup.com/

Another suggestion that I highly recommend is the book Laurus picrel. Russian author so it is heavy with Orthodox themes but it is such a wonderful read.

Just bought a copy, I'll review it once it gets here in a couple weeks
>>25863
Came in the mail today, was not expecting it to be a textbook. I also ordered the first edition from 1999 that has volumes 1 and 2 combined, so I'll be reading this for a while. Maybe the scribbles and notes in it from whatever seminary student had to study from it 20 years ago will be helpful as well.
>>25863
I finished this a couple weeks ago, volumes 1 and 2 (one of the earlier prints from the 90s with both versions combined into one). It's very good, gives a very detailed overview of Christiainity throughout the ages. Shame that it stops in the early 90s though (my version at least, with the stained glass cover) but still a very good resource.
Currently on another non-religious book from John Taylor Gatto on the issues with modern schooling, then looking into something new and Christian-focused. I might try reading The Silmarillion again but there are so many names and races to keep track of it got really hard to memorize and I quit not even halfway through.

This is a fantastic lecture by John Granger on the Christian symbolism of the Harry Potter series. It discusses Soul Triptychs, Literary Alchemy, and Ring Composition. This talk was given back in 2011 at the Eighth Day Institute. It is a little over an hour to listen to, so if you would rather watch something instead, there is another talk by John Granger that was uploaded to YouTube, so I will add that as well.

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.
Another good video by Jeem exposing the real origins of Jewish Kabbalah.

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.

The goal of this thread is to be a bag full of Jesus seeds you can quickly get and plant in non-believers' hearts. (eg. you can visit this thread for good links to send to a LARPagan to prove them wrong)

Well to be fair anon, You can usually get a clear indicator on how something should be approached by how your enemies view it. In fact the best way to tell if something is wicked is too see how far is strays from the bible for the most part. I'm going to go into detail with this so please be patient and read if you want to know more about history. So firstly let's go back... All the way back to the times of Noah. This is relevant because Jesus claimed that the End days would be similar to the days of Noah In Matthew 24:37 which reads like this
Matthew 24:37
"But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."
Now we need to identify what the Days of Noah were like. And we can figure this out by simply reading about it in Genesis 6. 
Genesis 6:4
"There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown."
Notice how in the days of Noah the "son's of God" were mingling with the Daughters of men and when you read on further it gets even clearer.
Genesis 6:5-7
"And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 7And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them."
In other words things got so bad that God was straight up going to destroy all of his creation. Because they only had evil thoughts continually. Just looking at the average person nowadays shows that this is reality. I'm firmly in the camp that the vaccine was really the mark of the beast and that everyone that took it is going to meet the same fate as the Jews who are the definition of what an anti Christ is 
1 John 2:22
"Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son."
Exactly what the modern Jews are. Moreover anyone who helps the Jews are actually liable to get the same punishment as they get. 
2 John 1:9-11

Catholics and Orthodox alike. There is a concerted effort of infiltrators trying to "project veritas" Christians within their own churches in the guise of visitors, catechumens, etc to get them to say things in confidence. The most heinous thing of it is that they take these recordings to bishops to effectively excommunicate people they get on recording, context removed of course, without addressing archbishops/cardinals/metropolitans as a proper excommunication would require. We have to know that no matter the denomination, the leaders and clergy of our Church are filled with cowardly old men that are more content to count their coins than they are to even attempt a cursory investigation into allegations made by outsiders in any regard. The revival of Christendom in the world is being stymied not only by those allied with the devil and his children, but at best by those who see their faith is just a job instead of responsibility they claim to profess. So as Moses before us, and unless something changes, we have to await the death of all of these demoralized boomers, gen x, gen y, and even a good part of the millenials before the Holy Church can rise again to prominence on the world stage. The only other choice is to start creating organizations within the faith to counterattack against such effeminate leadership every time something like this happens to another brother of ours going forward. Attached is one of many letters to come being sent out by many such cowards within t

So, what was said? I am not going to side either way because sometimes people do need excommunication or a long penance into order to be brought to repentance. Without both sides of the story here, this is pointless.

From my understanding, which isn't complete, the supposed "catechumen visitor" spoke to a parishioner espousing leftist "Patriachy Theory." Said parishioner rebutted something along the lines of, and I paraphrase: "feminism is designed to turn women into whores" and pointed out that some of the leaders of the "2nd wave feminist" movement were jews. There was no indication said conversation was heated or that any yelling ensued, and witnesses reported that  the two parties were seen shaking hands when said "catechumen visitor" departed. The whole thing stinks to high heaven, especially when the bishop in question has been known to run a school that supposedly researches jewish mysticism and how it inspired Orthodox tradition. For anything else one would have to contact the diocese.

If that was the case that does seem really odd and way over the top for a full excommunication. I would at least attempt to reconcile with the Bishop, but a change in jurisdiction sounds in order. A shame, I believe that Bishop spent time on Athos, he should be hardcore.

One would think so, but it seems that whether it is the jew holding the purse strings hostage to control our clergy, these boomers clergy themselves retardedly cling to the zionist lies of the previous century, or God forbid, he's one of many suspected masons within western clergy, the devil is alive in the church and will continue to be until it is cast out by the light of truth.

Firstly out of the way, I am an atheist. Without change. You're free to have your own beliefs, and I have mine.

With that out of the way, on to my question.

These days, on the internet and in real life, I've seen so many people using Christianity, and religion in general, as a crutch to espouse hateful viewpoints.

Granted, I've also seen and interacted with plenty of really nice religious folk who well and truly "love thy neighbor".

My question is, what are this board's thoughts on tying religion to hateful viewpoints, i.e. "God hates f*gs" and similar things? Is it acceptable in the eyes of God, as many of these things are considered sin, or should people learn to "love the sinner, not the sin"?

Personally, my dad is a Christian and he's been very accepting of my lifestyle as a queer atheist (forgot to mention the LGBT part up till now, oh well :) ), which I'm very happy about.

My dad stopped attending church years ago, however, as in his experiences, so many of the churches he went to were hateful and/or judgemental, which isn't to say that there aren't any good churches (obviously there's plenty of awesome churches who really do good in the world).

What do you all think of this whole rambling tangent, and overall what do you think about using religion as a crutch for hate speech? Personally it saddens me, and I'm not even religious. I feel like it just gives the religions a bad look and increases the overall negativity in the world.

I understand where you're coming from. It grieves me to see how some twist Christ’s message into a weapon of hate, when His own words call us to love our neighbor (Matthew 22:39). It’s like trying to catch water in a plate with a wire screen bottom; no matter how hard you try, you just can’t get to the living water that Jesus freely offers.

We’re in a time where many have forgotten that true righteousness isn’t measured by judgment or condemnation, but by a clean heart, a mind seeking truth, and a willingness to serve others. It’s not about fancy doctrines or self-righteous declarations—it’s about living simply, with genuine love and compassion, just as our Savior did when He reached out to those society had cast aside.

You know... there’s a raw and honest call in the gospel—a call to let go of the pretense and bitterness that can so easily take root. When we see the Word of God being misused, it reminds us that real faith is found in the quiet, everyday acts of mercy and kindness, the ones that reflect the true essence of His love. It's really in those moments, that the beauty of a life lived for Christ shines through, unadorned and direct.
