Seeing this visually crushed me. It’s absolutely wild how easily we condemn someone else’s sexual sin while making excuses for our own. We’ll point at homosexuality or adultery, then brush off lust or sex outside of marriage like it barely matters.

Different sins can cause different harm, but none of us becomes righteous because we think someone else’s sin is worse. God’s holiness should lead us to examine ourselves, too.

We ALL need repentance. We ALL need grace. We ALL need Jesus. 💔

[Ryan Visconti @ryanvisconti]

All of scripture, from OT to NT condemns homosexuality as detestable to God and associates it with wickedness (Romans 1). Therefore, there’s no such thing as a “gay Christian.” There are “formerly gay Christians” just as there are lots of “such were some of you” categories of former sinners (1 Cor 6) who have been redeemed and changed by Christ. No scripture in the Bible allows us to hold on to our sin as an identity and identify with Christ at the same time.

You can win the LGBT+ theology argument and lose the person

I don’t think most gay Christians abandon historic Christian sexual ethics because someone finally showed them a better argument.

I think a lot of them just got too lonely.

Many queer Christians I know who eventually adopted a revisionist sexual ethic had spent years trying to follow Jesus faithfully while their churches offered them very little vision for how a celibate life could actually be good.

Eventually, obedience started to feel impossible.

And sometimes the prayer became something like:

“God, I still think this may be what You teach. But I’m exhausted. I’m lonely. I’m going to try something else. Please have mercy on me.”

I actually have a lot of respect for the honesty in that prayer.

I would much rather someone remain honest with God about where they are than feel like they have to reconstruct Scripture so they can stop feeling convicted.

But it also exposes why better arguments alone are not going to solve this problem.

You can give someone the strongest exegetical case in the world for a historic Christian sexual ethic.

If following it means decades of isolation, watching everyone else build families while your church tells you to “just have more friends,” eventually your theology is going to feel unbearable.

So if churches want queer Christians to trust God’s wisdom for a lifetime, we have to embody that wisdom in ways that lead to undeniably good lives:
- deep friendship
- permanent family
- shared homes and shared life
- meaningful vocation
- a community that actually helps carry the cost of obedience

If we think God has something better to offer queer Christians than same-sex marriage or medical transition, our lives together have to make that believable.

Better arguments won’t be enough.

💬 Yaklaşık 30 yıl boyunca kadın gibi yaşamaya çalışan İsviçreli Chris Brönimann:

─ Ameliyattan önce sahip olduğum sağlıklı bedenimi sadece bir günlüğüne yeniden alabilmek için neler vermezdim. Böyle bir gün artık hiçbir zaman olmayacak.

─ 19 yaşındayken "trans" bir kadınla tanıştım, ondan etkilenelerek "Kadın olursam ben de mutlu olurum" diye düşündüm. Ölümcül bir yanılgıymış.

─ Önce İsviçre televizyonu, ardından tüm LGBT oluşumları gece-gündüz benim haberlerimi yapmaya başladı. Adeta "LGBT'nin bir rol modeli" hâline getirilmeye çalışıldım.

─ O dönemde doğru olanı yaptığıma inanıyordum. Trans geçmişi olan insanlara yönelik hoşgörü ve saygı konusunda insanları bilinçlendirdiğimi düşünüyordum. Dünyanın renkli ve çeşitli olduğunu göstermenin benim misyonum olduğuna inanıyordum.

─ 16 kez ameliyat oldum, çok sayıda komplikasyon yaşadım ama hiçbir zaman gerçekten ciddi biçimde "Neden?" ya da "Burada tam olarak ne yanlış gitti?" diye sorgulanmadı.

─ Aslında bir illüzyona hizmet ettim ve aynı zamanda bir illüzyon sattım. Bugün bundan gerçekten utanıyorum.

─ Umduğum özgürleşmenin aksine kendimi daha da fazla sıkışmış hissettim. Beni daha da az anladılar, ben de ruhsal ve psikolojik olarak kendimle daha da az başa çıkabildim. Bu o kadar aşırıydı ki, birkaç kez hastanede yatmam gerekti, 2006’da artık tahammül edemediğimi düşündüğüm için hayatıma son vermek istedim. Tüm bunlar geçiş sürecinden sonra yaşandı.

─ Detranzisyon (geri dönüş) yapmak, tranzisyon (geçiş) yapmaktan çok daha zordur. Sözde başarılı ve kapsamlı bir tıp sistemimiz var, geçiş sürecini teşvik ediyor ve insana tüm seçenekler yelpazesini sunuyor. Ancak geri dönüş söz konusu olduğunda aynı tıp sistemi ortadan kayboluyor. Aynı doktorlar artık orada değil ve size yardım etmek istemiyorlar.

─ Neredeyse 30 yıl "trans kadın" olarak yaşadım ve 30 yılı aşkın süredir cinsiyet hormonları kullanıyorum. Bunun ne anlama geldiğini, ne tür etkileri olduğunu gençler bilmiyor. Söz konusu olan çocuklar ve gençler. Onların korunmaya ihtiyacı var.

─ Ben sessiz kalmayacağım. Evet, "trans" aktivistlerin tüm öfkesini üzerime çekiyorum. Nefret mesajları, ölüm tehditleri alıyorum. Neden? Sırf bu çılgın konuda tüm sonuçların farkında olmamızı istediğim için.

La razón científica detrás de perdonar 70 veces 7.

Desde los tiempos de Jesús hemos llevado este consejo como algo superficial. Hoy la ciencia nos indica la verdad detrás de perdonar 70 veces 7.

Las palabras de Jesús nunca pasarán. Una prueba más de Dios está entre nosotros y su amor nos quiere llevar a ser y estar mejor.

Your “biblical masculinity” may be cultural cosplay

In an AskMeAnything, someone asked me what “authentic Christian masculinity” is.

Honestly?

For me, authentic Christian masculinity is whatever a biologically male Christian does while faithfully following Jesus.

That’s it.

I don’t see much in Scripture beyond that which is universal for all men in all places at all times.

A lot of what gets called “biblical manhood” is really just a mix of personality preferences, cultural nostalgia, and baptized stereotypes.

Jesus calls men to holiness. To love and courage. To obedience and self-giving.

But every Christ-follower is called to those things.

Christians should be careful not to act like their cultural script for masculinity is God’s eternal design.

(And just to be clear, I’m not saying this to dismiss the pain of friends navigating gender incongruence.

I’m just saying we should be humble about how much extra baggage we pile onto the word masculinity.)

Aturan di kantorku:
- cuti melahirkan 6 bulan
- cuti ayah 1 bulan
- adopsi anak (di bawah 2 tahun) cuti sama (6 bulan utk karyawati, 1 bulan utk karyawan)
- keluarga dekat meninggal cuti 7 hari
- cuti haid wajib
- cuti keguguran saat melahirkan 3-6 bulan (menyesuaikan)
- mudah izin utk jaga anak-ortu sakit

Seolah 'memanjakan' karyawan, tapi kantorku bisa jalan seperti ini 13 tahun. Saya tanpa pekerja yg andal, perusahaan akan tamat dalam sekejap. Karyawan tanpa fasilitas ramah keluarga akan lenyap dibajak kompetitor. Saling membutuhkan.

Saya juga tidak tahu masa depan perusahaan spt apa. Tapi saya tidak ingin mengubah kebijakan2 di atas. Bahkan ketika era covid ada yg dapat cuti melahirkan dan cuti ayah, kebijakan tetap diterapkan di masa sulit.

Kondisi dan karakter leader di tiap perusahaan tentu berbeda. Pasti banyak yg bingung dgn kebijakan kantor saya (dibilang moralis, disumpahin bangkrut, dll. Yeah, I got it a lot). Demikian juga saya bingung kalau perusahaan dgn margin/volume bagus tapi tdk punya kebijakan ramah keluarga. Beda prioritas sepertinya 😀🙏

Profesor Herawati Sudoyo, Pahlawan Bom Bali yang "dikalahkan" oleh tembok birokrasi negara sendiri. Lo bayangin, kepolisian dunia aja hormat sama beliau karena sukses bongkar identitas pelaku Bom Bali cuma dari serpihan DNA. Tapi pas di negaranya sendiri, nasib beliau dan timnya malah berakhir ngenes gara-gara urusan administratif.

Namanya Prof. Herawati Sudoyo, salah satu otak paling cerdas di Lembaga Eijkman. Pas kejadian Bom Bali 2002, beliau dan timnya kerja gila-gilaan buat identifikasi pelaku lewat sisa-sisa DNA di lokasi ledakan. Berkat beliau, kasus-kasus terorisme besar bisa terungkap secara ilmiah.

Di tangan beliau, Lembaga Eijkman jadi markas riset genetika paling bergengsi di dunia. Bukan kaleng-kaleng, ilmuwan luar negeri aja segan sama riset mereka. Tapi ya gitu, musuh terberat orang pinter di sini bukan virus, tapi birokrasi.

Plot twist paling pahitnya terjadi awal 2022. Lembaga bersejarah ini dibubarin dan dilebur secara paksa ke instansi riset baru. Alhasil? Ratusan ilmuwan dan peneliti elit dipecat massal dalam semalam cuma karena mereka bukan PNS.

Bayangin, orang-orang yang udah ngabdi puluhan tahun demi kemajuan sains Indonesia, disuruh angkat kaki cuma karena masalah dokumen status pegawai. Dr. Herawati dan timnya harus ninggalin laboratorium tempat mereka nyetak sejarah internasional.

Ini jadi bukti nyata kalau di sini, "surat sakti" birokrasi kadang lebih berkuasa daripada otak jenius yang diakuin dunia. Padahal kita butuh lebih banyak orang kayak mereka, bukan malah bikin mereka "patah hati" sama negaranya sendiri.

Respek buat Prof. Herawati dan para ilmuwan Eijkman. Mereka udah kasih yang terbaik buat Indonesia, meskipun akhirnya harus "menelan luka" gara-gara sistem yang kaku. Pahlawan sains yang sebenernya.🫡✨

“Politics” adalah Karya filsafat yang di tulis oleh Aristoteles. Di dalam karya “Politics” Aristoteles melakukan penyelidikan mendalam tentang pengorganisasian masyarakat dan cara terbaik untuk mencapai kesejahteraan bersama di dalam sebuah negara.

Aristoteles menganalisis berbagai struktur pemerintahan untuk memahami bagaimana etika individu dapat diwujudkan dalam kehidupan sosial yang harmonis. Aristoteles menegaskan bahwa manusia pada hakikatnya adalah makhluk politik (Zoon Politicon) yang hanya bisa mencapai potensi tertingginya melalui partisipasi aktif dalam komunitas. Tujuan utamanya adalah merumuskan sistem yang ideal guna menjamin keadilan dan stabilitas demi kemaslahatan seluruh warga negara.

Tujuan Negara (Telos):
Aristoteles meyakini bahwa negara bukan sekadar organisasi untuk keamanan atau ekonomi, melainkan bertujuan untuk mencapai "kehidupan yang baik" (eudaimonia) dan kebajikan bagi warga negaranya.

Klasifikasi Konstitusi:
Ia mengklasifikasikan pemerintahan menjadi bentuk yang benar (bekerja untuk kepentingan umum) dan bentuk yang menyimpang (bekerja untuk kepentingan penguasa). Bentuk yang benar meliputi Monarki, Aristokrasi, dan Politeia.

Negara yang Praktis (Politeia):
Meskipun ia mendiskusikan bentuk-bentuk ideal, Aristoteles sering mempromosikan Politeia (perpaduan antara oligarki dan demokrasi) sebagai struktur yang paling stabil. Visi ini sangat bergantung pada supremasi hukum dan peran kelas menengah yang kuat untuk menyeimbangkan kepentingan antara kelompok kaya dan miskin.

Warga Negara dan Partisipasi:
Struktur ideal bagi Aristoteles melibatkan warga negara yang memiliki waktu luang untuk berpartisipasi dalam urusan publik dan pengembangan diri secara intelektual dan moral.

But marriage was never meant to carry that weight.

Our value and dignity don’t come from being married. They come from being created in God’s image.

Marriage is a good gift—but it makes a terrible god.
Our ultimate joy and contentment must be in God alone, whether married or single.
