22, Eastern Orthodox Catechumen☦️ | Glory to God! | Forgive me when I err, still learning!

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

I have decided to become an Eastern Orthodox Christian. I have just made the announcement to my Dad, and the rest of my family tomorrow, as well as asking my priest to be a catechumen. Pray for me! Glory to God! Glory to God!

I see the problem with private interpretation of scripture in the modern day under a different culture and different way of seeing the entire universe than the church fathers. That’s very different from the Church guided by the Holy Spirit compiling and deciding the churches canon. In fact what you’re talking about seems irrelevant.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@Igor69028028 @needGod_net Compiled by men through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, because the whole Orthodox Church is guided by the Holy Spirit to all truth. So the answer is both.

@mobk1ller @KalebAtlanta *keep in mind I mean posting pictures, criticizing that stuff is fine

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@mobk1ller @KalebAtlanta It’s been constant, had to unfollow him. Hopefully he stops and repents.

@RET_423 @thaddeusthought In terms of my point? Or my character? I’m sorry, I don’t respect vague comments.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@Simon_Rex_ None of it. I feel if I invest in too much of a political group I am contributing to something evil or something being manipulated. I would rather go through the transformation Christ is currently doing for me. That has become far more important.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

It’s complicated for me personally. His attitude towards certain people could turn people away but apart of me also gets where he’s coming from. He’s expecting intellectual honesty and genuineness and when he doesn’t see that he can come across as unpleasant. Up to the viewer on how they feel about that. However, he is also incredibly smart, and that I highly respect.

Jesus Prayer (and prayer in general)
Over and over again, day after day after day, standing still, sitting on the couch, whenever.
Doing the Jesus prayer constantly has been my solution to that for me. Both out of my mouth and in my head.
I’m a catechumen (assuming you’re baptized?) so you probably have more experience than me, but attempting to do the Jesus prayer until it rings in my head all day helped me with that extremely.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@JPuncut Good, Orthodoxy actually encourages challenging it, we actually admire Thomas doubt and consider it blessed doubt because doubt and questioning can lead to a big encounter with Christ where you realize who He truly is.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@RET_423 @thaddeusthought Jesus literally says that in Matthew 7:1-2.
Apparently you’ve never read the Bible and have no idea what it says. (Being sarcastic of course.)

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

I literally almost got fired from my job because I kept reading the Bible too much to the point where they banned books entirely and then I went home to read more of the Bible. That’s not a flex, that’s a warning that you should not assume such a gross and evil judgement like that without a single thought. Christ judges us for things like that, He judges our own judgements and then judges us with the same judgements we put on others. Be extremely wary of judging others.

@RonaldsRDonalds He’s just gonna hide your reply, watch.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@RET_423 @thaddeusthought Your gospel is not in the scriptures nor in the early church. Martin Luther made it due to anxiety regarding Hell in the 1500’s which already pulled from the Catholic Church’s own gospel innovations.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@FastChase @thaddeusthought Cool, explain how

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

@RET_423 @thaddeusthought I agree, so Prots should stop making up fake gospels, otherwise they make up false gods.

[DomBow923☦️ @Nine23Time]

Doesn’t matter, this is the problem with Legalistic Christianity, mercy doesn’t exist in it. The fact that the Son had to volunteer so that the Father would have to redirect his wrath towards the Son makes the Father unmerciful and the Son merciful. It also is completely anti-trinitarian. They are both 3 different beings and also 1 being. Therefore, if the Son is damned, so is the Father. If the Father hurts the Son, He also hurts Himself. It is not the gospel.

Why would Jesus run for President, He’s literally King of the Universe.

[Dr. Kevin M. Young @kevinmyoung]

In an election where:

🔴 Satan (R)
🔵 Jesus (D)

Republicans would invent a reason to support the Prince of Darkness.
