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.

>these people say your Christ was a myth 
They are technically correct, the best kind of correct, but unfortunately, they do not understand that 'myth' doesn't mean 'outraged, bold-faced lie not unlike ones that Jews use', but rather something which has layered meanings - literal, moral, and metaphysical.
What makes the Bible different from pagan texts?

Wow, JoS. Haven't seen them in years. 

This org is run by a woman called Maxine Dietrich, who is the wife of some former leader of some American Nazi org. The whole intention of the site is to grab onto the popularity of Satanic imagery in order to convert teens to their neo-nazi UFO religion. The fact that they're a UFO cult it the most comical bit of it... 

Unless you have particulars you want me to address, I'm not going to dig into their works and make apologia for christianity, because they have a lot of random nonsense that's not really presented coherently. If you have particulars, say so and I'll look at it, but instead, l think by just presenting their core beliefs that you don't really read about until you're several layers deep into their site, we kinda see that these people are absolutely retarded. 

This cult effectively teaches that mankind was elevated from lesser animals several thousand years ago by a race of aliens that came to earth to extract gold. We were created by them as slaves to extract gold in their operation. Note that here, we're basically aping Van Daniken's annunaki theories, so we're already in retard territory. 

Anyway, they further go on to teach that at the conclusion of the gold mining operation, the leader of the aliens, who they equate with YHWH, decided that the humans should be destroyed, since they could become dangerous, but one of the aliens, Enki (who they equate with Satan), believed that they should be instructed and guided and let to live. They say enki and his followers (the goetic demons) taught mankind many different things in order to let them defend themselves from YHWH's faction. This would be their occult knowledge, which they teach is the ability to telepathically contact Enki and his allies via the use of the sigils, and that once contacted, the enki-aligned aliens can use their extreme technology to effect miraculous things that are perceived as "magic". 

In order to destroy the now-educated mankind, they teach that the alien YHWH created judaism (and the jewish race) and it's offshoots like christianity and islam in order to convince man to not use the occult technology given to them by enki. They say that this is all in an attempt to cut mankind off from their protector, so that YHWH can effect his original plan of destroying all of us. 

So that's more or less their beliefs: you do magic to contact the mighty space nordics who help you fight against YHWH and his evil space jews.

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.

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.

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?

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.

My Catholics Brothers and  Sisters in Christ,

Christ has risen, but Pope Francis was called back to him.

Discuss his legacy, and who and what shall be next.

I don't remember him actually putting the foot into his mouth.
catholicism is based on pagan idolatry and has corrupted the teachings of Christ for it's own purposes. the pope having the title pontifex maximus, just goes to show how he thinks he has the same authority as God himself, as the pontifex maximus is meant to be worshipped as a God. who else had that title in history? julius caesar, the emperor of rome when Jesus was crucified. 

i wonder if the pope even mentioned Jesus Christ by his name during easter, another pagan corruption, venerating mesopotamian goddess ishtar. the last time easter fell on pascha, the pope delayed easter by a whole week. he does not honor the same God us christians do. Martin Luther knew this a long time ago, claiming that the papacy was the antichrist.
