Rev. Nick Quient

Hello, my new followers. Since that random post went viral (well, viral *for me*), I figured I’d introduce myself and give you a chance to unfollow. I’m ordained American Baptist. I’m Wesleyan in most things sans baptism and ecclesiology. I’m evangelical, egalitarian, and hold to a traditional sexual ethic. I’m basically a New Testament theologian. Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox are fellow Christians, and I love talking with serious folks in those sides of the Christian family. My first two degrees were film degrees, so you may get the occasional movie take. I’m married to Allison and we’re mom and dad to a five year old and a soon-to-be-born little one. I pastor in the Greater Los Angeles area. I homebrew. My PhD (ABD) is on the New Testament and Universal Salvation (no, not a universalist). I have too much grey in my beard. I’m also buds with @thechurchsplit and @DPGBehler and @jdpritchett so you can tell my sense of humor is broken. Nice to meet y’all.

I found the video of Nabeel's baptism! youtube.com/watch?v=vkrmVz…

Agreed. Be American Baptist.

BIG debate! Mark your calendars! @ModernDayDebate @Alex_Ortodoxie looking forward to debating with you 🤝 youtube.com/live/PQ_vVjMUU…

@jdpritchett To be fair, they are working for a living

@NickQuient Also a friendly reminder that the orthodox dudes on X are parroting some version of what the trained and ordained Orthodox priests and theologians taught them. Those trained and ordained Orthodox priests and theologians are free to chime in any time, and they don’t.

A friendly reminder that orthodox dudes on X aren’t the same as trained and ordained Orthodox priests and theologians.

@NickQuient Now that’s training up a child

Nolan: “Dad, are the Astros still cheating?” Me: “I’m so proud of you, son.”

@BraxHunter Taking red pills, are we?

@ProphetBartEhr I don’t much care. The opinion of someone who doesn’t have my phone number means very little to me.

@NickQuient How do you feel about the ortho bro position that absolutely zero Catholics or Prots are Christians and will make it to Heaven

I think we need a verification check for orthobros to determine if they are: 1. Really human 2. They are not catechumen and are fully Orthodox 3. They have the full blessing of their actual priest That alone would improve discourse. Heck, we can use ☦️ as the verification symbol.

Aliens exist Jesus is Lord Go to church

You can’t trust a real mainliner Reconquista man who doesn’t go to the wokest PCUSA seminary @redeemed_zoomer could’ve gone to Princeton or Austin or Louisville. Totally lame. 😉 *I know RR I’m joking

had a great convo with @PrestonSprinkle on Jesus and the Law of Moses. It’s out now. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

@DPGBehler @JenLedger can you wish my man Derrik a happy birthday?

MFW it’s my half-birthday and no one said anything. Here’s to 36 1/2 I guess. 😏

@DJBROKEBOY Bruh!

@NickQuient lol well technically I am the Dr Cheyenne Bryant kind of doctor where I don’t have to ever show my credentials dissertations etc. “Dr” in name only 🤣

Alright it’s official I’m a Dr now!

@wtanksleyjr YES

@NickQuient Yes, but Dark Knight was a better Joker movie, maybe even a better movie even with all the Nolan subtleties. (And the last one wasn't worth remembering the name.)

Batman Begins was a better Batman movie than The Dark Knight.
