Tradition will not save you, nor will religion save you. Neither your church nor denomination will save you. Not one ritual will ever save you.Instead, this is what the Father desires: a heart full of love, eyes that do not condemn, a mouth that speaks what is true, and ears that listen humbly. For this is our law: that you become like Him and follow the example His Son set before you: love, compassion, justice, mercy, faithfulness, humility, and impartiality. In everything, practice these. Pray that your words be rebuked if you are speaking what is false.Tell me: what good is it to follow the law outwardly but inwardly be in rebellion against it? Surely, this has no value?Instead, become the kind of person who follows the law naturally. In this are fulfilled His words: "Make a tree good, and its fruit will be good." Become someone who loves unconditionally, who forgives without limit, someone who gives generously. In this, the law is perfected: that you love your neighbour as yourself.Know this: "The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart."The true security of salvation comes from knowing the Father through the Son. Though men call you a heretic, He loves you. Though they condemn you to hell, in that day, may the one who does His will be exalted.This is the Father's will: that you listen to His Son and let His teaching transform you.How can hate remain in love, or falsehood in truth? How can there be pride in humility or partiality in justice? How can there be condemnation in compassion or rebellion in faithfulness?In that day, you will stand naked before His Spirit, and all that is not of Him will burn away. Do not be like the foolish man who built his house on sand, but be like the wise man who built his house on the rock, so that in that day, your whole being won't collapse with a great crash.

Nigger your well poisoning is boring. If the protestants are right then the ones following the magisterium will head up anyway. If the catholics are right well depending on which heretic or pope you like then universal salvation is probably a thing through a spot of purgatorial fire. If the buddhists are right existence is a rescue mission to make us all march arm in arm into annihilation. If the gnostics are right then I'll rape you in the shower because prison. Go learn what you're shitposting about. At least do the interesting heresies, like Messalians or the Brotherhood of the Free Spirit or the grecobuddhists of Bactria or something.
Glowniggers deleted the last thread that had this title and image to replace it with this demoralizing well-poisoning. Predictable, as always.
>>43154361This: >>43154337 is the same glownigger trying to devalue the original OP through this obfuscating new simplistic thread, and then replying to himself mockingly. This is a consensus cracking tactic.>present dishonest strawman>mock it derisively
>>43154373They will always turn to their dishonest strategies because they hate the truth, but you know my voice.
>>43154373I'm not, actually, though I can't prove that. Op is just a /his/ tourist, one of the discord troons who posts well poisoning stuff here and there and everywhere because muh christkikes or whatever. His objections and 'teachings' make no sense in any tradition I know of.
>>43154337Dude, you're too dumb. You're on a 3rd grade level and those aren't allowed here
>>43154317God does not merely wish to make you a better man. He intends to remake you entirely, in fact.I am grateful everyday that I have seen the truth of the Living God. Everytime I pray I imagine Jesus appearing in the east, coming back to wipe out the Beast, genocide mankind, judge every living soul and throw everyone safe the elect into hell. Christianity is fucking based. Maranatha!
>>43154442Much love friend.
>>43154317>ritualno one asked for the Bible to weigh in on this, but by the time the engineer quietly inherits the kingdom from the philosopher (as ritual can mean many kinds of social utilities that rhyme across history like pilgrimage or dirge) it will just be a boring patch of highway that you don't have to drive onand even if it wasn't, attacking ritual (like seasonality, another technical ritual) generally just makes a more rich ontology capable of absorbing all othersthat is why it can be said that hospitality is older than sovereigntyit's not age, it arrives with more force and is cheaperjust like following smell is cheaper than winning the argument
>>43154317Faithful post anon. In addition, my Muslim take:Do you not remember the lofty establishments and how they were built before? The monuments of old are still there, and many are yet still buried beneath the waves. Remember the laugh and wrath of Our Lord as He draws near, o' ye people, and surely you will be prepared for The Day. On That Day there will be like no other, and not even The Deafening Blast will be able to compare directly. On the day that the weeds are plucked and burned the faithful must have trembling and certainty, mixed with whatever praise and exaltations with The Lord that they may have.And sing out! O' woman of wisdom! Your maker IS your husband! El Tzevaot is at hand!
>>43154446Much love to you as well.Word of advice: You should really anticipate the Second Coming. We don't know when it will happen. If its in 20 years or 40 years or 100 years or a 1000 years, but it helps develop a very different religious psychology from one whose primary concern is moral instruction and everyday life.The former might regard the present world as a temporary waiting room. Historical events become signs. Dreams become revelations. Religious ceremonies become rehearsals for the coming kingdom.
