This is a versatile, non-specific general that is meant to replace and cover the majority of needs, including questions to ask, posts that won't spark conversation or that are not intended for the reader's attention, links/videos, and basically just posting here as a whole if you don't want to start a new thread. It would be useless to clean and keep other generals like QTDDTOT. So there won't be anymore like it.

The West forgot something. Rome went legalistic. Protestantism went rationalist. Megachurches went corporate. But the East? The East kept the mystery. Eastern Orthodoxy never tried to systematize God into neat theological boxes. Aquinas wrote summas. The Orthodox wrote hymns. The Catholics built arguments. The Orthodox built icons. The monasteries never stopped. Mount Athos. A peninsula in Greece. No women allowed for a thousand years. Twenty monasteries. Monks praying around the clock. The spiritual lung of the church. When the West dissolved monasteries for profit, the East kept them. When modernism swept through Western Christianity, Athos remained. Still there. Still chanting at 3am. Still keeping the flame. The calendar matters. The Orthodox rejected the Gregorian calendar. Many still use the Julian. Thirteen days behind. They don't care about astronomical accuracy. The calendar is liturgical, not scientific. Time itself is sanctified. Every day commemorates saints. Every season has its spiritual meaning. The year is a cycle of death and resurrection. Orthodoxy is uncomfortable. It asks everything. It does not accommodate. It does not update. It does not make itself palatable for modern sensibilities. It demands you change, not that it change for you. This is why it grows slowly. This is why its converts are intense. You don't drift into Orthodoxy. You're called. You struggle. You submit. The West optimized religion for scale and clarity. The East preserved the mystery at the cost of accessibility. One built cathedrals of logic. The other built cathedrals of smoke and gold and chanting that goes on for hours until you lose yourself in it. The CIA doesn't glow in Orthodox churches. Too much incense. Can't see anything. Glory to God for all things. The elephants are coming. Hail King Terry The Terrible.

Post and discuss any Christian-related cultural events, be it a new film, documentary, a piece of art, music, or something interesting from the podcast-debate sphere. Old news are also allowed.

How do achieve Gnosis in 5 days or less I asked /fringe/ but they're fake wizards And yes my question is extra heretical

Every good gift comes from God above.

From the old 8chan /christian/ board before the old 8chan became a CIA honeypot. Is something troubling you? Do you need reassurance? This is a prayer thread for Anons who need prayers. Anons can ask for prayers and other Anons can respond and send those prayers. Consider this something like a prayer group. The best part? You don't need to be a Christian to ask for prayers. Even just asking for prayers can help start your journey to become a Christian. As usual, just follow the board rules and the global rules.

Because anon.cafe/christian decided to get rid of it here it is, even though some pictures are lustful.

Daily reminder that Catholics are NOT Christians, but are rather servants of the Whore of Babylon and the Antichrist. Romanism is one of the great scourges of the earth. Countless hundreds of thousands, if not millions of true Christians have been slaughtered and persecuted by Rome for over a thousand years, and Rome continues to dishonor the Virgin Mary with rank idolatry. Roman idolatry is a form of paganism. Rome is an institution which is a Satanic chameleon, changing its colors in accordance with worldly fads and thought patterns. They push interfaith dialogue upon Christians in attempt to subjugate them to Rome. If you want to save your soul, leave the Whore of Babylon. Do not interact with Catholics unless you are trying to preach the Gospel to them.

Is Jehovah/YHWH the Father of Jesus? Would it make sense to worship Jehovah or Yahweh as a Christian?

What are some vidya that doesn't actually insult Christianity, or even faithfully depicts it. The closest that comes to mind, for me, is Van Helsing, but that's because the short of the game is that he "kicks ass for the lord". Also, how accurate is Darksiders?

What are you giving up for lent?

I’m American. I’ve traveled to New Orleans several times. I now work for the government. It is very corrupt. Supervising administrators with master degrees and army experience think that they can go and rape my girlfriends. Including everyone from my past, even people haven’t spoken to you in 20 years. Well, they went and helped themselves to my ex-girlfriend‘s from New Orleans. That was a bad move. Now there is a huge vampire and zombie outbreak. This was quarantined to one little corner in the south eastern United States. No it is prolific they’ve brought it to Europe and the Middle East and all over USA East Coast and West Coast. These people thought they were clever. This is checks and balances. The government going to be corrupt then they can eat people meat until they are all snuffed out. You must guard yourself with the armor of God. Read Leviticus read John. Know the difference between a bird and a fish, and a beast with cloven hooves that chews cud, and your neighbor. Have a little more faith to allow yourself to become a monster. Pray. Believe in the Bible in Grimm’s fairytales in the law. Whatever you can cling to cling to it. This is real I’m not even joking.

It’s time to reclaim the rainbow as the symbol of God’s hope and promise. The Pride movement has been dragging the symbol through mud for as long as it has been allowed to be abused by them. This June, we need to fight back. The symbol of the arched rainbow should be reclaimed as a Christian symbol. Alongside it, to combat the sin of Pride in the LGBTQ act/image, the millstone should be used as a symbol. >Matthew 18:6. but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened round his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea If all you can do is pray, then pray. Pray for the protection of our children from this corrupting movement. Pray that God will upset the plans of evildoers. I happen to do occasional work in schools and I see the most pride flags in middle schools. They target young and impressionable children who are right on the cusp of developing their sexuality. If you have influence in any schools, insist on the ban of imagery that promotes sexual deviancy, especially in middle and high schools. It’s time to make our voices heard. We need to brainstorm ways to get the message out, and develop a plan of concerted action for this coming June, and every month from there onward. Please help. Please pray. Thank you. Heavenly Father, bless those who are tired of seeing degeneracy spread by a group of people who largely hate you and hate us. Inspire us with ideas and courage to take effective action to end this social disease. Please protect the children who are exposed to LGBTQ degeneracy. Please give us strength and at the same time cause LGBTQ efforts to falter. Please bless us and help us all to always do more to bring about your heavenly kingdom. In Jesus’s name we pray. Amen.

/christian/ funny thread

The purpose of this thread is essentially a blog for Anon's to post their regular readings of the Bible, make comments, and/or reflect on it. To get things started, earlier this month, I started reading my process of reading through the entire thing again. Previously did it a couple years ago with the NKJV that I had for years, but now reading through the original KJV that I snagged for free from one of those church thrift stores. About 35 chapters into Genesis, and the one thing that I found baffling is how much trouble Abraham, Issaac, and Jacob cause and then managed to escape Scott Free.
