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.

This is part of your 'mission field', Anon. That is, wherever you're at, there you are!  :D
>tl;dr
God will use willing hearts wherever they may be found. Simply pray, hear the Holy Spirit's word to you in w/e regard, then act. Simple as.

>and think its userbase is as close to beyond saving as it gets.
Heh true, 'BUT': 'But for the grace of God, there go I.'
They need salvation same as the next Anon.  :^)

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.

Hey anons. After a long while in the desert outside of Christianity and God I've decided to climb my way out and begin reading The Bible and attempting to study theology and spirituality again. One of the art forms that's given me a sense of meaning throughout my life has been film. I've heard of some classic cinema that's Christian themed, but the only director who's discussed the faith has been Ingmar Bergman with Seventh Seal. 

I really enjoy getting personal recommendations from people but I also love the charts people make for  different subjects so I'm curious to see if there are any /christian/ film charts as well. So yeah, any recommendations for stuff to watch while I'm embarking on my spiritual journey would be incredibly appreciated! Thanks for the consideration, guys.

Sounds intriguing, it is part of the Criterion Collection and has rather good reviews from both critics and the audience. Sounds like I have something to add to my watch list. Thanks for sharing, anon.

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.

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.

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.

>>27050 (OP) 
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!  :)
Replies: >>27197
>>27050 (OP) 
>>27196
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.
>>25863
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.
