RΞTRO CHRISTIΛNITY

@MeuTW1960 @BiblicalBeauty Popularity with the world is rarely a good sign.

@BiblicalBeauty So how come women priests are leading churches that thrive?

Jonny Ardavanis responding to the question of whether a woman can teach from the pulpit of a church under the authority of her elders on a Sunday morning: "Well, listen, the Bible either says women can preach, or they cannot...I would just encourage people, you and I are not allowed to make arbitrary decisions and say, 'You know what, we think she can teach under our authority once a month.' A woman may be preaching under the authority of her elders, but she is most definitely not preaching under the authority of the New Testament, nor the Holy Spirit who wrote it... You may be asking, 'Would I leave a church that has a woman preaching, even if under the authority of her elders?' Yes, I would. Yes, I would. I would ask the elders to reconsider their position. I would present to them Scripture. And you may be asking, 'Why? What's the consequence of this?' Well, the consequence of this is just, it's disobedience. It's in the Bible. What's the consequence? Weak churches. And when men don't lead, churches die. And when churches break down, the culture breaks down, and you're watching this in our world today. Like in the garden, when you overthrow God's design for the family and for the church, there are disastrous consequences."

@maenadea Sense of humor: still intact

The first thing he said was, “I’m sorry about my face.”

@mrs_alyse Correction: this would be 70% disability, based on VA math; my mistake. Increase any of these numbers to get a higher disability rating, this was just a loose example.

@mrs_alyse It’s actually pretty easy to game the system: Knee pain from walking too much: 40% rating Headaches from chemical exposure: 30% rating General anxiety: 30% rating Now you have a 100% rating, or “full disability.”

Of all the things that never happened... In order to get full disability after just 2 years is to have experienced an extreme service related injury and medically discharged.

@Testa060221 @mrs_alyse Right, sorry, I got the numbers wrong but the concept applies. I’ve seen it firsthand, just don’t know the numbers well.

@RetroChristians @mrs_alyse Except that’s not how VA math works. That would only get you 50.

@GeoChonker “I want him to know I didn’t abandon him.” She did something far worse, actually: she murdered him. The only way she can ever reunite with him is via deep repentance soaked in grief and a full turn towards Christ with a fully obedient faith.

You dont hate abortion enough

@FrMatthewLC Hilarious how all of this is supposedly being done under the guise of fighting against “Big Money” and “Big Corporation” who, apparently, do not want you to own “sex toys.”

If your version of Christianity is feeding your vices & saying they are OK, it has ceased to be fully Christian. Jesus saves us without our work but his salvation causes good works, like virtue, in us.

@WanbergDylan @ThatRosaryGirl It’s easier and more appropriate to just say “you’re right, I’m sorry.” We don’t need to defend the decision to speak like this to someone married of the opposite sex as Christians, especially when they make it clear that it crossed a line for them.

@ThatRosaryGirl Have views that don’t align with how you see things. This is a kind heads up that if you want to talk about something like this then people willing to talk can say things you are not comfortable with.

scoffers surround me

@maenadea All good signs!

He’s spending another night intubated. He was breathing on his own this afternoon, while intubated. And he did some hand squeezing at request.

@cynomaxxx The algorithm knew what I needed to see when it put this at the top of my feed.

I have some ideas for how to improve milk.

@norwood_ree It’s a beautiful upbringing that you can always give to your children!

I never grew up with this childhood, and I envy those who did. Never be ashamed to be raised proudly Christian.

@maenadea You’re in my prayers today!

My son was hit by a car yesterday. We’re going to find out if he wakes up in a couple of hours. Brain surgery. Everything feels very odd, and I can’t sleep.

@imari33_photo Thank you so much!

@om_patel5 My computer would sound like a biplane taking off if I tried to run that while having any other program open at the same time

this guy vibe coded a wallpaper that shifts perspective when you move your head uses your webcam to track your position. move any direction and the background moves with you

@is_OwenLewis Sounds like you were there too!

@RetroChristians That all looks incredibly familiar

Growing up in a good church is one of the coziest childhoods you could possibly have.
