Thread 40709680

Is it just me or is everyone just more negative and hateful than they used to be? Including myself. The entire world feels like it just sunk an octave lower on the evil scale.

>>40709680 (OP)
It's because we've gone away from God, to our utter shame. Not one world leader today will ever say out loud the truth, which is this:

Jesus is Lord

>>40709701
Christianity is extremely popular with conservatives and terminally online incels like (You), and you're not making the world any nicer

>>40709706
The world was never supposed to be a nice place.
Satan is the prince of this era which is why in your seculiar mind sees the world going to shit

>>40709709
I'm not secular buddy. I believe in God and I know he's evil. You said it yourself "The world was never supposed to be a nice place."

Did God or Satan create the world? (They're the same guy)

>>40709717
You let Satan break your mind and make you believe in gnosticism.
When i first came here on /x/ I hated your kind for trying to make me double guess god.
but now I feel pity on you

>>40709724
Blah blah blah heard it all before. Save it for someone who doesn't know any better.

>>40709728
It is easy to be dismissive. I could have just insulted you and called it a day

>>40709733
We feel the same way about each other.

>>40709709
>The world was never supposed to be a nice place.
>Satan is the prince of this
Bla bla bla isnt it convenient how this entite narrative makes you just
>neglect your personal responsibility and power in shaping the world
>have a carrot on a stick for the end of your life
>all sorts of mental gymnastics and suppression and wars in the name of the Lord when the golden rule was already written before the bible was a thing: do unto others
We all have collective power and collective apathy is more your adversary than anything.

>>40709734
No we don't - I'd like to pray for you, if you don't mind?

>>40709771
You won't pray for me. You're just saying that to virtue signal.

>>40709779
I will, I will actually pray in front of my laptop for you anon - can I, please?

>>40709724
nta but I say Gnosticism is a helpful framework to escape the organized corruption that manifests in any group. The Catholics don't actually want to ascend people, they put all their faith power into the priest-class and above

>>40709783
Knock yourself out

>>40709766
>shaping the world
is a waste of time. This world is a disposable dream designed to bring out character. Find Christ when you're ready to rejoin true reality.

>>40709792
Thank you, no hard feelings - I really will pray.

>>40709793
The idea of an omniscient God needing to "test" people is absurd and retarded. I have talked to hundreds of Christians on this website and not one of them has a grasp on the meaning of the word omniscient or omnipotent. Your religion would make more sense if you didn't make those claims about God.

>>40709709
Christianity does a lot of work for the world to be shitty by making everyone neglect it (ie. handle it to psycopaths) because the actual world is only after you die. Convenient, no?

>>40709802
I saw today where someone called Christianity the Nothingness that was taking over the world in the Neverending Story

>>40709800
>The idea of an omniscient God needing to "test" people
Good thing I never claimed he did. Stop projecting and learn to read.

>>40709813
>for bringing out character

>>40709800
It does. Even though God is interdimensional and present at all times in the future and past, we are not however.
He needs to prune the believer so that he bears more fruit so that when he dies he can truly accept him into the kingdom

>>40709815
That's not a test. It's the freedom to create your own meanings and values.

>>40709818
God's already explained it before in the bible. He is farming us like crops.
He is the farmer and we are the produce

>>40709802
Anon, friend, the experiment of man trying to lead himself has utterly failed - how many more millenia do you need to have this proven?

We need God, and we need to follow Jesus Christ.

>>40709825
>It's the freedom to create your own meanings and values.
That's... definitely not what the Bible teaches

>>40709847
Citations needed.

>>40709837
>friend
NTA but you can cut the condescending talk. We know we're not friends.

>>40709852
The God of the Bible wants you to live exactly how he wants you to live, you're not free to "create your own meanings and values"

Honest question, have you ever read any of the Bible?

>>40709862
Most people don't or forced to and have had the word comeout the other ear

>>40709862
I have, you clearly haven't.

>>40709880
Were the ten commandments optional?

>>40709706
>extremely popular with social rejects and those interned in senior centers/their representatives

That's not exactly projecting the image of social power you think it is

>>40709862
Anon you also have to remember that Jesus said that if they don't believe after reading moses and the prophets they will never believe even if the dead are raised to life.
Some people are doomed to have their hearts hardened

>>40709897
>extremely popular with social rejects and those interned in senior centers/their representatives
Chirstianity?

>>40709902
Your reply has literally nothing to do with what I said. When YHVH is telling the Israelites how to live, does he say his instructions are optional? Did you reply to me by mistake?

>>40709909
>Honest question, have you ever read any of the Bible?
I was more so responding to this

>>40709717
God is not Satan. Satan is the one presenting himself with the names Yahweh, Elohim, Allah, etc. Ancient Hebrew termed him as Samael.

God, however, is a big cosmic fuckup who made tons of mistakes (94% of creation ended up being hedonistic, cannibalistic psychopaths) and lacks omnipotence. Even though we sundered the demon army into Gehenna, God is not actually capable of stopping the quantum resonances and other nasty garbage demons are using to invade Earth. We have to do it. We are His children, his hands, and collectively we know a whole lot more and hold more power than the individual God (at least he says so). However, as Elohim, the distributed Godling children that defend the highest God, we are effectively unstoppable. That's the score and it settles the state of the universe and the realms trying to invade it from outside quite succinctly.

Depends on where you look at. Hopefully no World War 3, but China is starting to spaz out about Taiwan. Let's use our spiritual power to prevent that from happening everyone! Don't forget to get Sunlight too! It gives you mana!

>>40709793
>is a waste of time. This world is a disposable dream designed to bring out character
Yeah so go sit in your basement and do nothing. The devil dances on idle hands.
Stable realities like these exist to ground the unstable malleable realities. It is turtles all the way down. If you hand over this world to evil and cannot keep this green garden clean, you have no place in heaven either. Testing someone's character makes no sense for an omniscient deity, because depending on who you throw where and what they go through is more dictating than anything else.
Is an atheist doing honourable work worth any less than some theist with spite at heart? Should a world as rare as mother earth just be handed over to bad people and become even worse?

>>40709885
Five of them aren't.

>>40709946
lol no, nice try

>>40709909
Are you an Israelite?

>>40709680 (OP)
This is caused by the current global war to manipulate the minds of the masses for power and profit using any and all means.
It's just the acceleration of the ancient oligarch game.

>>40709975
Is Jesus one with "the Father (YHVH)"? Is YHVH the God of the Israelites?

>>40709766
Collective Apathy is 100% the problem with humanity. Nobody gives a fuck anymore, about anything, and that’s why the world has gone/is going even more to shit than ever.

Plant a garden. Rescue an animal, even if it’s just a cat or a dog. Ask yourself the hard questions, and those around you that you believe are willing to think on them. The more we can convince “that there’s still some good in this world, Mr Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for,” the more this world can heal.

The explicit teachings of Jesus are merely the first and most popular steps of one path that all lead to the same destination.

>>40709984
Jesus is the spirit of "I am" within all souls.

ιαω is the world soul.

The internet has pulled the scales from the collective vision.
Everybody now implicitly understands that their ideological adversaries don't even proccess the same reality as they do.

>>40709680 (OP)
Pay people enough to live comfortably, educate people enough about the environment they live in, provide nutritious food that is affordable. Most everyone has 0/3 of what I listed. Stress = Mess
Also, death of God as mentioned by others. What I listed is why we killed God (again).

>>40710107
Great answer!

>>40709946
Based and bropilled

>The explicit teachings of Jesus are merely the first and most popular steps of one path that all lead to the same destination.
One might argue that the real lesson to learn is how and why the teaching stuck around and influenced so many. If you understand that and can influence collective thought to do more good, that helps our unity as well. What does the world need and how does one break the spell of apathy? How did people do that in the past? The narrow gate is precisely that set of noble acts that will advance our knowledge, preserve the lands and cultivate a better and more honest society.

>>40710149
Not what I asked.

>>40710183
Literally what you mentioned is something only god can provide
and yet here you are in disbelief and against of even the idea of a god

>>40710183
If everyone is a millionaire nobody is. We need slaves that are uncomfortable to keep the apparatus that is mass human civilization up and running. If everyone is comfortable no works gets down and a nation collapses within a few days

Not me. Go stand in the sun barefoot

>>40710345
Will do, friendo. My calloused feet shall withstand any heat off of the floor during the hottest days of summer daylight.

I can't control the world, I can only control myself — most of the time. I actively try to be the exact opposite in my life, attempting to spread good, kindness, and compassion when I can; to help people when able; and to be more positive.
I figure it's all I really can do. Even if the world goes to shit, I'd still like to be me and stick by my principles.
I believe that what we manifest into the world will influence it, so I don't want to contribute to bad shit, I guess.
