Satan was not quoting scripture in the temptations, he was challenging Jesus's self avowed role as Christ. In other words, Satan was arguing against revelation, insisting on hard proof, not unlike you.

>>27471
You sound like a false prophet

>>27472
You sound like a coward. What does it say about Christians that they would rather incessantly recite scripture, perhaps go to Church for the millionth time, for centuries, and do nothing about the injustices Jesus himself confronted millennia ago? It trivializes faith by risking nothing. It is the absence of faith. They all just wanted to have their little parking lot in Heaven after death. That is the sum of "Christianity" since Muntzer. Luther and the Protestants are the most massive hypocrites in history. I have more respect for Catholics. They don't pretend to have a fuller fidelity to Jesus's teachings.

>>27473
Injustices existed in Roman Judea. Which of these did Jesus teach his followers to 'violently' oppose? The One who raised the dead could've killed any tyrant or oppressor with a word from His lips - yet He did not.
>"And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village." Luke 9:54-56 KJV
If you care for the poor, no one is stopping you from giving your money to the poor. The visible Kingdom of God will come at the appointed time, and all these wrongs will be righted. Until then, live as an ambassador for Christ - preaching the good news of what Jesus has accomplished for us. Be an ambassador, not a hit squad.

Calling it "literature" might be a bit of a stretch, but I finally sat down and read the Rule of St. Benedict. There's definitely a lot of good advice that can be extracted from it even for a layman, though a lot of it just deals with the practical arrangement of a monastery. I did like how it ended with the message that if you want to learn more about being a good monk you should read the Bible and the lives of the saints.

I ordered the collection of the Pendragon Cycle by Stephen Lawhead to get ahead of the release of the series by the Daily Wire. It is supposed to have a lot of strong Christian themes. Hope to start it here soon.

Christisking dot see see might be worth a visit, although it is anonymous-message-board-adjacent with a similar posting culture. It's less dead than this board, though. Main focus is Western Orthodoxy but they accept all denominations (and even non-Christians as long as they're not Jews or Muslims and treat others respectfully).

See >>27137
If it requires a sign up to post, then by definition it is not an anonymous message board and expect to be swept up by the jannies as soon as you try to banter or have any fun that we take for granted here.

TL;DR: avoid chobitsu as they do nothing but abusing mod privileges.

Did everyone move over to our chan /r/? The site is more dead than zzzchan but the religion board is more active than here.

I also lurk ourchan, but notice that they had to call it /r/ for ((( religion ))) instead of making their own /christian/. That's how you know that they aren't on the same page as this place is. Anathema!

It's a little out-of-season right now, but I've always been fond of the Vidi Aquam. I'm not sure what my least favorite hymn would be without going for the very low-hanging fruit of contemporary music, such as that of Hillsong.

My favorite hymn:
Silent Night, I can't find my favorite version, but that's probably for the best right now so I can get things done other than listening to it. That one version I listened to so many years ago as a child has carried me through countless years of poorly done renditions. It captured the essence of the song and I still have not forgotten it. 
Kind of like this, I'm sure you can get the picture:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6O5rZbgD4A

For least favorite hymn I'll go for the ground-touchingly low fruit of Bethel Music's heretical abomination of worship: Reckless Love
As you may be able to tell, I have had the misfortune of having to listen to this blasphemy over and over again over radio and in churches that did not have enough thought put into song selection. The trouble is how close it is to being slightly above average contemporary music when it all of a sudden switches to lying about and slandering the very God they proclaimed to worship. 

I guess I have too much time to form adjectives with.

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

>Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: If my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence
It will be a wonder if a day comes when an objection to Christ was not known and answered before the world was shaped

You can tell when opponents truly do not understand Christianity. They lack the vision of the Christian worldview and see things from a purely materialist position, as if Christianity is simply some movement. Even most pagans do a similar thing because they have an undeveloped worldview and are merely in a reactive phase. I think of Fr. Seraphim Rose, who saw these opponents as attempting to find an earthly utopia. That somehow man can fix his way out of his problems, not fully understanding that he is his problem, his very condition weakens itself.

i need a wife
it's no longer a matter of i want one, i NEED one. paul says that a life of chastity is not meant for everyone, and most men cannot stop themselves from fornicating, and therefore it is best that he find a wife as soon as possible. the problem is i have no idea where to find a worthwhile one. dating apps are useless. all the women at my church are either underage or already married. i truly don't know where to turn at this point.

Sometimes I wonder if I even want to be free... Please pray for me. Whenever you read this message, please spare a prayer.

I'm so sick of this crap and, at the same time, lack any kind of drive or motivation to change. "My grace is sufficient", and yet, I keep fugging it up.

I pray that God answers your prayers, Anon.

Porn sucks and I hate being a degenerate. I _hate_ myself. I started watching it when I was 11 and I'm nearly 30 now. If I could get rid of one vice forever it'd be porn. Lord help me.

I just turned 30 and I stopped because I got really angry about the state of the world and my life and how Satan is ruining everything for everyone and wasting my time and energy with nonsense so that I'm not in a position to oppose him, and also because it just feels wrong when the women being trafficked by pornographers are 10 years younger than you now. It's like there was a decade where the world could have been improved and these vices should have retreated but instead because we fooled ourselves into thinking that the devil doesn't exist evil has only spread further and increased its grip on our society. I went and ran 10k every day for a week straight and I doubled my productivity at work and I had a long talk with my pastor about getting more involved in church. I have a feeling that there is a big wave of conversions and reversions of those who've fallen out of the faith coming and like in Matthew 9:37 the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few, and the Lord will be sending us out to the world to witness soon in these last days. I don't even know why I used to want porn or masturbation so badly now, it's just sad and it was a crutch to fill in holes in my life where I felt badly about myself, and even when I was doing well secularly before my conversion it was something that I kept turning to even though it brought no actual value to my life. I was also worried in the past rounds when

A whole lot gibberish for saying nothing at all. I am not convinced by your arguments and will continue on using Israel for the Church and Rabbinc Judaism for the synagogue of satan.

>>26975
If you are not convinced by the word of God in Hebrews 11 that Abel and Noah and Abraham are saved. How do you justify writing thus?
>that came to be part of Israel from that time on still follow the faith of Adam, Abram, Isaac, and Jacob.
If you were serious in your conversation you would be saying "follow the faith in Jesus Christ." Further more "Judaism" is not a word in the word of God it is a word the kikels, specifically the IDF, invented to confuse people. I am not sure what you are talking about when you say "Judaism" could you clarify what you are talking about? Preferably with Biblical sources

>>26976
You are putting words in my mouth in again. Following the faith is following Christ, the head of the Church, Israel. I have said that multiple times. Maybe this might benefit you.

If you have a good one it is hard to see them step down. Are they moving away? If they still stay in the church you still have them.

All feels OP. Trust God's ways will ensure you're well led to Him.

The whole radiation emission theory for the shroud might actually be even more credible now. Not saying this study is directly related, but light emission from the body forms the foundation of the theory.
