Happy to be a compassionate, Christian, Conservative, Commander Player since none of those are contradictory.

Here are my positions:

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@Cath_SteelMan The pharisees and sadducees had different canons, but Jesus spent no time in the gospels criticizing the sadducees for lacking books.

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@Cath_SteelMan The canon is a discovery, not an invention. When Newton discovered the law of gravity, he wasn't wrong until Einstein discovered the law of special relativity. In the same way, the true canon fulfills the parameters of scripture most while being internally consistent.

@DachshundBTC Woah John is talking about Communion?

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@DF_UniatePapist Hi, modern protestant here! Never heard anyone say she is in hell before. Saying so would be breaking Sola Scriptura

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@5Solas Isn't this what Islam teaches?

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

Why is this kool-aid pineapple treat going viral after soft drinks and candy become unable to be purchased with SNAP EBT?

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

If a married man never has sex with his wife when she is ovulating, he is disobeying that command. If a fertile woman chooses to reject all proposals of marriage, she is also disobeying that command.

It's likely that it was a command that was for a specific time to a specific group of people. Applying it in specific situations may be decontextualizing it harmfully.

@BishopJaxi Anyone who does God's will are just as blessed as her

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

I'm not sure. It's possible that a person has one born again experience if they willingly continue in the faith their whole earthly life. If they end up as an atheist, they never had salvation because they ended up as an atheist.

At this point, it may be too much focus on something that doesn’t matter if someone does what the Bible says they should, which is to hold strongly to the faith

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@Buzzsaws1990 @Defensofidei So everyone falls into either

A) self control
B) lack of self control

If person A doesn't get married, then "burning with passion" happens.
If person B gets married, then they didn't do what is "good for them" (to remain unmarried)

Pretty simple I think

@Buzzsaws1990 @Defensofidei You're right, I should have said verses 8 and 9

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

Absolutely. In my opinion, legalism is "you're not a Christian if you don't have all good works" whereas true Christianity is "you're not a Christian if you don't have any good works"

I could be wrong, of course.

That said, the difference between a self-deluded unsaved person and a saved person not finished in sanctification is desire to good works and continued repentance of evil deeds.

Hopefully, that's not too complicated

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@Buzzsaws1990 @Defensofidei It's stated in verse 8

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@Buzzsaws1990 @Defensofidei Right but deprivation by mutual agreement is a thing Paul says exists. Its still deprivation even in mutual agreement

[RedElementalBlast @RedElementBlast]

@Buzzsaws1990 @Defensofidei So, only those who lack self-control have authority over the spouse? If no, then this section is similarly not nullified by claims of self control.
