The fact that you left Christianity does not mean you understand Christianity. Some of y'all grew up in the great value Walmart version of a christian tradition and now think you're experts on it
"The Scriptures are perfect" -Irenaeus
"Nothing unjust or counterfeit in them" -1 Clement
No scripture contradicts another- Justin Martyr
"Of these alone do I most firmly believe that their authors were completely free from error"-Augustine
"oh my gosh did you know ancient Jews were polytheists who worshipped Asherah as the wife of God?"
Yes, that's why the prophets were on their case all the time 💀
The weird trend of christians hating on apologetics and saying it's useless is so bizarre. You have people deconverting from your churches because of meme tier arguments they saw on tik tok and you think apologetics is not important? Couldn't be me
With the passing of Tim Keller I want to remind you that ALL his sermons he ever preached are now completely free on and you should literally start watching/listening to them now, homie could preach!
Jesus name is Immanuel, meaning "God with Us". Also Jesus claims to be God twice, John 8:58 and John 10:30. You don't try to stone somebody for blasphemy if they are not blaspheming.
The whole "Christianity is the white man's religion" narrative is the goofiest nonsense I ever engage. Like, if you're ignorant about church history just say that!
Kinism is heretical. It denies the truth that we are fundamentally a new humanity in Christ. In prioritizes natural relations over the mystical union we have as members of the body and claims they are more fundamental, thus denying the mystery of the gospel in Paul's writings
The Bible is way too interesting, complex, and narratively structured for preachers to be using it as a stepping stone to giving a motivational speech.
Hey Christian Twitter, ADHD is a very real thing, the meds genuinely do help, and pretending my struggle is somehow sinful just makes you look foolish.
There is a culture surrounding popular level Calvinism that turns men into insufferable and self righteous people. No hate to my Calvinist brothers and sisters but you guys have to address this in your culture. It seems to attract know it all men.
PLEASE pray for Prague. We had a shooting. 11 people dead. Happened in the center.
Guys you don't understand this NEVER happens here. The shooter took his own life. Happened at our major university
Lord, have mercy 😭😭😭
Many christians have a shallow faith because they'd rather talk about marriage and relationships than about theology, but y'all not ready for that conversation
Believing you need to be Young Earth Creationist to be a Christian is wack and y'all will not convince me otherwise. Hold it if you want, no hatred your way! Just saying.

Jesus being crucified instead of Barabbas is like the clearest biblical depiction of penal substitution. The righteous one goes in place of the criminal and receives punishment that the unrighteous deserved, and the unrighteous gets the freedom the righteous deserved.
There are multiple prosperity gospels. "If you're a faithful Christian you'll be married by 30" "if you're a faithful Christian your kids are guaranteed to be believers" "if you're a faithful you'll have lots of kids" "if you're faithful you'll not have ADHD"
So this was fun 😬🥴😱🤣.
I stand by what I said even though I made all the white Christians super angry 😘❤️
<whispers> read more books about the history of colonialism and Christianity. Please!
Muting the thread now because my mentions are a disaster.
You are not a Christian if you do not affirm the nicene creed. You can theoretically hold several views on baptism for forgiveness of sins, but if you deny that baptism forgives sins in anyway, you're heterodox. Stop reinventing Christianity nobody wants your walmart version
Christianity cannot be the "white man's religion" if Jesus was middle eastern, the average christian today is a black woman, and the global south is where it's seeing the most growth.
Y'all are just goofy
the fact that cessationists positions are more common in regions where christianity is dying and continuationism is more common in regions where it is rapidly growing is not a coincidence
If someone like Jemar Tisby said it's "relatively sinful" for black people to marry white people you all would have lost your minds. But because it was the other way around suddenly we had to nuance it.
There's this prevailing belief that Andrew Tate was "necessary" to bring back masculinity and such. It's a kind of a culture war idea. The reality is that anything good he has said has been said by better men with better character. He was never necessary.
A healthy way to deconstruct some bad Christian beliefs is to read theologians outside your tradition and learn about church history and the development of theology. A bad way is to repeat the nonsense you heard someone say on Tik Tok
I don't know about you, but I'm pretty convinced the apostles didn't die so 2000 years later women would shake their booty on a church stage during Resurrection Sunday. Maybe that's just me.
Ignoring Africa and Asia in discussions about the state of Christianity today is cringe. You're making statements about "the church" and it's only concerning the United States 🤣
Transformation Church's Easter show was something else. From Kesha covers songs to women talking about their butts to some lady getting crucified, it's a mood.
If you deny that baptism saves (1 Peter 3:21), forgives sin (Acts 2:38), washes away sin (Acts 22:16), unites to Christ (Romans 6:3-5) then by definition your opinion on who should be baptized is irrelevant
One thing I've learned from hanging with my Muslim friends is it bothers them a lot that they see christians not taking their faith very serious. If we claim to believe in God, why don't we live that way?
two kinds of people i cannot stand: protestants who comment on catholicism who know jack squat about theology or church history, and catholics who treat protestantism like everybody is in a rock concert dance service. both of y'all suck
It will never cease to amaze me how we could lambast men relentlessly on christian twitter and no one would react but you could make a very mild point that you know, any woman who has unrealistic standards should probably chill and they think you hate them bro

Making Batgirl black is absolutely dumb. It's literally not who the character is. It's CHEAP and actually lowkey racist because studios won't do superhero films about actual black superheroes but will just recast white ones cause they don't believe a black IP can sell tickets.
When Jesus commands us to not be anxious he's saying we should not deliberately choose to not trust him and look to other means as our savior. He's not saying you're going to hell for an anxiety disorder. "Fear not" is an invitation to comfort, not a threat.
People denouncing “cancelling church” on Christmas have a fundamental misunderstanding of what church is.
Church is a group of people committed to loving and following Jesus.
Not gathering in a building one Sunday doesn’t lessen that. In fact, sometimes it enhances it.

the idea you can live a Christian life without the church gotta be the biggest scam ever cause dawg being a believer is absolutely ROUGH out here. trials, pestilence, sin issues, all sorts of madness. need God's people man.
Folk will literally praise and defend the legacy of theologians who upheld the enslavement of my people BUT will mock Tim Keller on the day of his death because of some of his political views.
Let that sink in.
The members of Trinity Moravian Church in North Carolina purchased nearly $3.3 million of local residents’ medical debt for just $15,048.
Then, they held a debt jubilee ceremony and burned up the debt, canceling it all.
Yesterday I thought I'd heard all the stupid things. Then today someone asked me "was Jesus saved when he was baptized?" and that is now officially at the top of the list
