Grappling With God

A different perspective on scripture & Christianity. “For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge.” R10

What does this mean to you? #Proverbs #Bible #Scriptures

[Grappling With God @GrappleWithGod]

@thatbrian Firstly: The entire world has always been run by women through their husbands & lovers— starting with Eve. And literally every woman in the Bible.

This test seems to be fueled by sexism & fear.

[Grappling With God @GrappleWithGod]

@Docsteve4u @thatbrian I’d say it’s closer to a novel that you read, than a textbook that you study. A lot could be gained if people read the Bible like an epic novel, with many books, like #LordOfTheRings, & #HarryPotter.

@ChristMount777 @thatbrian Why do you think Gen. 1 is literal? In what way, what parts?

[Grappling With God @GrappleWithGod]

@thatbrian Not even. At least ¼ of it isn’t even meant to be literal.

Valid point. It’s so easy to pick & choose which sins are better/worse than others.

We can all— easily— fall into self righteousness. #SexAndReligion

My mom & I kinda got into it over religion and sins because of my sexuality the other day. And I simply said “that’s cool but ultimately you were never married to my dad and here I am, so let’s see what God considers a sin when we meet them.”

@emmanuej985 @jeanelie Why do you say that? Actually curious.

[Grappling With God @GrappleWithGod]

@HulkingHuss @jeanelie Why do you think The Accuser was angry toward God? Not a challenge, an inquiry.

Saw this in theaters— But will watch AGAIN! #TheChosen #GetUsedToDifferent

"We will see" this scene Sunday night.

Anyone who hates Jews hates Jesus.

Jesus was a Jew. All of his apostles were Jews. Moses, Abraham, David, Solomon, all the prophets, all the miracles, all the scriptures were by Jews & for Jews.

@presbo Hi— Would you mind explaining what “covenant theology” is?

[Grappling With God @GrappleWithGod]

What if this is hell? Or more precisely, the Lake of Fire? https://t.co/5sAeiwBcEu

#CHRISTIANS: If any of you are formally educated New Testament scholars, PhD, etc, I would love to pick your brains for a project I’m working on. Specifically info about the cultural era that #Jesus was a part of. #BibleStudy #Christianity #NewTestament #Anthropology

I would have loved to see @JonathanRoumie’s #Jesus from @thechosentv paired up with @tonygoldwyn’s “Joshua” aka Jesus. I think they would have been friends. #TheChosen #FishersOfMen #GetUsedToDifferent #TheresWorkToBeDone

@MontyBoa99 @ginnyhogan_ @invisiblelad007 I think it was a mistranslation as well, but that the word camel was meant to be rope. Comparing the difficulty of getting an entire rope through a needle’s eye, as opposed to a thread. Playing off of the “fatness” of the wealthy, as opposed to the “thinness” of poverty.
