“Understanding is the reward of faith. Therefore, seek not to understand that you may believe, but believe that you may understand.” (Aurelius Augustinus)

@victorfyt Of course it does👍. Humans are image bearers of God. And sex brings two image bearers together. There are always consequences...

@shaunhurrie From what you said, the topic sparks controversy whenever it’s discussed.

Yes, or no?

@K10original @LDSchurch Ecclesiastes 7:20 Surely [j]there is not a righteous man [this includes male & female] on earth who does good and never sins. Cross-references [j]: See 1 Kgs. 8:46

@shaunhurrie @LDSchurch *sins Don't get excited, that was a typo. The Lord knows

Yes, the @LDSchurch is NOT Christian; any more than labeling a brick a rose doesn't make it so. The good news of what the eternal Father, Son, & Holy Spirit has DONE in creation, fall, redemption, & God's soon return is simply missing in #Mormonism 😔🙏✝️ breakpoint.org/the-church-of-…

@proginosko 🤣

Still my favorite parody account.

Because the creation is fallen in our father Adam (natural evil - floods etc.) & b/c humans are fundamentally bad not good (moral evil - murder etc.). The ONLY solution is the God-man & sole Mediator bt. Holy God & sinful man - Jesus Christ (1 Tim. 2:1-7). Soli Deo Gloria!😌🙏✝️

@BenjaminPDixon @DrFrankTurek Wow! Coming from an ostensible pastor?! How sad😔🙏😌✝️

@DrFrankTurek the solution is the tear down the spiritual wickedness in high places that is white subpremacy and mammon-capitalism. the source of more violence and evil than any other throughout history

Why is there so much evil in the world and what's the solution?

@DrFrankTurek Because the creation is fallen in our father Adam (natural evil - floods etc.) & b/c humans are fundamentally bad not good (moral evil - murder etc.). The ONLY solution is the God-man & sole Mediator bt. Holy God & sinful man - Jesus Christ (1 Tim. 2:1-7). Soli Deo Gloria!😌🙏✝️

Let us, as American Christians, reaffirm the Biblical truths of the #DeclarationOfIndependence as we approach its #250th anniversary. Humans ARE exceptional, contra #Evolutionism posing as science - SDG!😔🙏😌🇺🇸 breakpoint.org/science-and-th…

@K10original @LDSchurch Okey Dokey🥱. Blessings🙏

@shaunhurrie @LDSchurch Heavens 🙄 no, I don't lie. He says repent, and Sin no more. He also says to be perfect like Him. Takes practice. You on the other hand, take Him and His sacrifice granted. Who wins and flaunts it 🫤🧐🫵

@PlumblineFaith 🤔...why don't you gather an assembly/ekklesia/(the best word voted on) of folks to write a Study Bible ('The NT Word Usage Bible of the Holy Spirit' or the like) to correct the entire Western Church of this apparently hopeless misreading & misapplication of God's Word?🙏😔✝️

“Assembly” is probably the closest English word to “ekklesia,” which is the Greek word commonly mistranslated as “church” in our English Bibles. But even “assembly” falls short. When the New Testament was written, “ekklesia” almost always – in the common usage of the day – referred to a participatory assembly of local citizens appointed as the governing authority, under Rome, in a city or region. In Israel during Jesus’ time on Earth, the local ekklesia under Roman rule was the Sanhedrin. Each city or provence had their own local ekklesia, which oversaw local affairs under Roman authority through local citizens selected by the Emperor. The internal function of each ekklesia, in their own locale, was democratic – with full participation and say by each member – just like a State assembly or town council today. The idea of Christ building His ekklesia, therefore, was subversive to Roman ears, but fully in line with His further teachings on His Kingdom. Unfortunately, “church” today has little to do – either as to form or function – with what “ekklesia” actually meant when the New Testament was written. To really understand the Bible, we need to learn what it actually said when written, based on the contemporaneous meaning and context of the words used … Rather than reading back into those words our conflicting post-New Testament meanings.

@K10original @LDSchurch Amen, that'd be lying. And that would be breaking a command of God's moral law. I have lied before, have you? That's why I need a perfect Savior Who as God can be the spotless sacrifice for my sin & as man can be my human Mediator/Rep. His name is Jesus, the God-man. Trust Him!🙏

@shaunhurrie @LDSchurch Pretending to care, is lying. All these commandment breakers and zero remorse, Repentance, or change. Not a good combo

@rirokpik This ironically sounds like you are living as a slave to the very heinous slavery you speak of & desire to be free from. May God bring you out of this kind of thinking by His good news of true freedom in Jesus Christ alone (Galatians 5) - SDG😌🙏✝️

Slavery was probably 100x sicker than what we think it was. I really see why older black folks don't rock with white people at all. They've seen some real atrocities in their life.

Anytime God & His Word are used to justify false prosperity & profit, you can be sure that God is NOT in it. Such is the case with @nathanielblow's so-called #HallelujahChallenge. 😔🙏😌✝️ africa.thegospelcoalition.org/article/the-ha…

What a gift #RogerBacon was to both theology & to science. This #creationist laid the foundation for the scientific method by which we do observational science in the present. Too bad science is captive to naturalism😔🙏 breakpoint.org/roger-bacon-a-…

Give thanks today, fellow Christian, that God is BOTH merciful AND just in perfect balance & proportion. Where would you be if God handed out justice to you? I'd be in hell awaiting the lake of fire for sure. But the mercy of God IN Christ intervened-SDG✝️ reformedreader.wordpress.com/2026/06/11/a-b…

@newscientist Hello animal🥱👋...what a load of non-scientific nonsense.

Why do we have big brains? Or walk on two legs? Biological anthropologist and broadcaster Alice Roberts talks human exceptionalism, evolution and her new book Humans with Michael Marshall #Echobox=1781225157" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">newscientist.com/article/mg2703…

@DrFrankTurek Interesting question, but too nebulous. I know why ALL people reject Jesus Christ unless they are given a new heart. It's b/c they want to live as independent, autonomous creatures apart from their Creator. So they suppress the truth they know about God by evil works (Rom.1:18ff)

Why do you think some people reject Christianity?

@K10original @LDSchurch Why thank you - these are eternal matters we are dealing with after all. I truly care for the souls of Mormons. They have a god that cannot save😔🙏😌. Thankfully the living Triune God is able to open blind eyes✝️

@shaunhurrie @LDSchurch You sound so determined, lol Relax

Calvin's comments on Micah 6:8 square with those of James 1:26-27. Mere outward show of religion is not what God desires from His children. He desires THEM! As living sacrifices, they are to both speak & act in ways that demonstrate God's justice & mercy✝️ reformedreader.wordpress.com/2026/06/09/jus…

@Tensen100 @conservmillen @BasedMikeLee Amen! The Jesus Christ in Whom all the fullness of God was & is pleased to dwell bodily (Col. 1:19)🙏😌✝️

@conservmillen @BasedMikeLee Huh. All this time, I thought that if I loved Jesus Christ with all my might, mind and soul, believed He suffered for my sins and rose on the 3rd day, and that I must strive to love all and be more like Him, that made me a Christian. Go figure.

Can anyone tell me why The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was left out of the list of Christian churches?
