Incorrect teachings in christianity

but the point is that if there is disagreement about anything ( more important than zips & buttons ) then both sides believe that their contradictory views are correct and justified.

yep, and one would be wrong and the other right, or they're both wrong. it's very common in all the different christian sects.

I'm not trying to be the best christian or anything, i just wanted to share this message with fellow believers to understand what it means tp judge biblically. i know there are better christians than me

1) the only music i listen to is hymns and conservative christian music, i may slip up into contemporary christian music sometimes. i don't play violent games with blood and stuff anymore, i deleted them off my laptop, like mortal kombat, gta, first person shooter games, because of the music, i don't really play guitar hero anymore either. if a christian came and told me i need to throw out every video game.

2) the passover was for the nation of Israel, i'm not an israelite.

3) thats not what the Bible says, maybe if you're reading those corrupt modern versions with missing verses. the KJV says not to wear linen mingled with wool. all i will say is this, wool doesn't even go well with linen anyway, so i wouldn't even wear it. furthermore pretty much all my clothes are cotton and polyester and stuff, like most clothing nowadays. i heard from a preacher once that that commandment was 'symbolic', wool being the word of God and linen being mans words and that we shouldn't mix them together, i'm not convinced though.

4) yeah i know, thats why i don't go around telling people what they should wear otherwise i'm a hypocrite.

i think judging is a good thing (when done righteously) that's part of what it means to love your neighbour, it makes us better christians when we are corrected on our wrongs. for example i used to say "damn" a lot, then someone questioned it because it sounds like i'm cursing somebody, the i changed it to dang.

tyou can't say you love your friend and not try to correct them when they're fornicating, smoking and drinking, because what your doing is just letting them get worse and worse to the point that God Himself may just smite your friend and ruin their life.

but they both feel entirely justified. so when you are banging on about homosexuality you could be wrong.

"And the Lord saw that Stacey was smoking, and saw that it was not good, and smited her so she may never walk again" - No bible verse, ever.

Well, bloody hell, at least you're consistent. My point was to bring up archaic biblical laws that would be ridiculous to follow in the modern day society, but I didn't realise you were one of THOSE Christians.

I mean great that you wanna keep you and your friends in check, but eventually this will turn into a great one-upmanship game where you do absolutely nothing but try to police each others food and clothes, while actually doing nothing for the world around you apart from trying to recruit more people for the cult.



"And the Lord saw that Stacey was smoking, and saw that it was not good, and smited her so she may never walk again" - No bible verse, ever.

If only God would also smite in equal measure the kiddy fiddling catholic priests, Factory CEO's around the world who don't understand child labour laws and human rights violations, Warlords who plunder and ruin the villages around them, etc.

But no. Your first concern is smoking and drinking and having sex. Because of course it is. Because then you can look around you, then sit smug thinking that you're better than 95% of the population.

but they both feel entirely justified. so when you are banging on about homosexuality you could be wrong.

Who actually cares what’s written in some crappy old book?

Billy Graham was asked if he thought God would hold him to a higher standard because he had all this responsibility - and he said yes, he thought that.

i was raised in the church. i'm a christian. you don't need to get angry.

hmmm, i think so. but its not aim in life to just judge everyone to make myself feel better if thats what you thought, the aim is to avoid unrighteous judgment and to edify fellow believers and exhort them to do good works.

well if i'm judging unrighteously, God will judge me as harsh as i'm judging others if that's what your asking.

except what we're "banging on about" is written in God's word and therefore is infallible.

You act as if, Christians having different opinions on the bible is sign of the bible's contradiction.
Let's be honest and drop the facade, it is sign of your unwillingness to believe in God and the gospel. Stop pretending, its literally 2019 and people have largely rejected God, no one's gonna vilify you

I wouldn't rely on the Bible for several reasons:
1. It has a lot of contradictions.
2. It has been altered.
3. Mis-translations

If you want to follow Christian teachings... sure, but you are better off with the basics of Christianity and then respecting those rather than nit-picking the Bible. Not because it's a 'bad' text, but because it is more difficult to trust it as it has many versions. That's just my opinion.

In my experience: religious fundamentalists/hardliners, religious zealots trying to convert others, religious reformers, militant atheists, historians,
theologians and theology/religious studies students.
Oh- I almost forgot Henry VIII.

And people who need a crutch to lean on to help them lead a decent life, because they can’t manage it on their own so they need a book of fairy tales to help them along,
