2 Timothy 3:16
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
1 Timothy 2:12
But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

What she means is, teach people how to read the bible so they can overlook the fallacies and just pretend god is the answer. Science has allowed more and more people access to more and more information that was traditionally misconstrued and hidden by religions for centuries. Finally people are starting to see the spaghetti monster in all its noodly glory. Ramen 🙏

Correction: what wrecks lives is if a gay (or bisexual, etc.) person denies their own sexuality their whole life; marries a person of the opposite sex who wouldn't approve of their "lifestyle" because of religious indoctrination; has a family with them, and then finally, after years of being very unhappy, musters the courage later on in life to ACCEPT THEMSELVES for who they are. I know the argument that people like that should try to be more open in the first place well, and in some cases that can certainly be relevant, but there's a very clear, primary culprit to this problem that is responsible for the vast majority of this kind of repression of one's sexuality in society: religious indoctrination.
Because the religious indoctrination is what leads people to be repressed, deny who they are and not accept themselves, basically every single evangelical Christian marriage that fails because one (or both) spouses was LGBTQ and in the closet, should in fact, pretty much, be squarely blamed on the religious indoctrination.
Religious indoctrination tends to divide and tear people away from each other, whereas being self-accepting and actually truthful is what, in general, can harmonize and unite us.
This video that accuses a book (or the individuals who read it) that may have inspired some people to self-actualize of being the problem is CLASSIC victim blaming.
Evangelicals (and their indoctrination) really need to stop causing all these problems for people and then blaming the individuals or a book for the problems that the evangelical Christian indoctrination itself causes in the first place.

Don't you understand, Christianity is no different to every other religion out there .
They are man made forms of control for people who don't like the reality of life.
Its a comforter for those looking for a way out.
You won't find one !
Make your your life what you want.
Isn't that what you're doing anyway?

Start at the 4 gospels ! Matthew mark luke and John . For any begginer bible readers. This is where you can read about Jesus from His birth to resurrection .
@damianabbate4423 Says:
We are bio machines that are driven by instincts, hormones and chemical processes. There's absolutely zero evidence of us having a soul or sin nature. We have developed large brains capable of abstract thought and reasoning, and it conflicts with a lot of our thinking that is instinctual and hormonally driven. When my wife is struggling with menopause and acting out of character, is that her sin nature? When we were teenagers and hormones were raging and we desired sex, was that our sin nature? When autism, epilepsy and schizophrenia is improved with drugs, is that demons being affected by the drugs? Of course not. And no, it's not a mix of natural and spiritual. We do selfish things that have indended and unintended concsequences that can't be forseen or we choose to ignore because everyone is selfish on a spectrum.
Your insistence on using these late bronze age explanations for why we act the way we do, when it's been proven false, is really quite pathetic.

It's easy to read the Bible like you guys... Just make it say whatever you want it to say....😂😂😂 You really don't see the issue with what you said? The problem wasn't the people pursuing their own authentic selves. It was your religious ideology indoctrinating them to believe something was wrong with them in the first place and essentially FORCING them to believe they needed to get into a heterosexual relationship that was doomdf to be nothing more than a scham from the get go....
@Rogue-nc3pl Says:
A book written by some bronze age peasant telling you are a born sinner because they say so according to their methology and judge people accordingly. Well, i dont know what to tell you.
@Andrew_O Says:
The Bible is a great book, it's got it all: medieval torture porn, dragons, raping & pillaging by the "Good Guys" of the story, slavery, and a clear depiction that there are no moral absolutes as the rules change every other chapter. All of this without any confirmed eye-witnesses (as if that would be enough to trust the miraculous claims of events never seen since). Yup REALLY reading those books is a fantastic means of helping people who are still good remain so by leaving the wishful thinking behind and not becoming apologists for blatant hypocrisy & atrocities in a book that should be filed under "fiction".
@oddoutdoors Says:
You're trying to tell people that your interpretation of the Bible is the only correct one yet your interpretation is demonstrably wrong. You lie about it all the time, you made it your job to lie about it.
@patbrumph6769 Says:
Only a Christian can read the Bible and understand what it says, because you have to read it with the right mindset. Whenever you come across a passage that is morally offensive or downright crazy, you have to know how to rationalize what you are reading and put it into a context that is acceptable to church denomination that you belong to.

Yes Lord, save me from my authentic self.
@ntkmw8058 Says:
I wanna ask this really important question here, whether or not you believe God exists.
If you died, do you think you’d go to heaven or hell?
If you think hell, just stick around. God’s gospel (his good news to the world) doesn’t end at condemnation but brings mercy in accordance with God’s requirement for absolute justice.
But if you think heaven, why? Is it because you live a good life? Cause let me show you an analogy of what it’s like if God were to let you into heaven by your good works: you are a doctor and you’ve saved hundreds of lives but you go to a bar one night and you screw around and get violent and end up killing a man. Days go by and you’re in front of the judge, about to make testimony. You tell the judge that he should acquit you because you’re a doctor and you’ve saved a hundred lives. The judge looks at you insane and deems it not valid. Now I know you’re probably not a murderer, but in God’s eyes, unjust hatred is murder and we’ve all hated and said we’ve hated someone. And we’ve all sinned, it’s no secret, our God given conscience condemns us.
This analogy demonstrates that God can’t let you into heaven by your good works. You need perfection to get into heaven, and no man has that. The Bible, and aswell as our conscience, tells us that “none is righteous” and that we’ve all broken God’s law thats been written in our hearts.
But God in his great love, didn’t make us for hell, he made us to live with him and for us to worship him and enjoy his presence. And he is a just God, so he demands penalty for sin, which is death (i.e., hell/eternal punishment) to cover the eternal offense of sin.
So he, wanting us to be made right with him, and demanding justice and payment of sins, agreed to send his eternal Son down to earth. He was made into a man and he lived the sinless perfect life, which God requires. And he died for ALL of our sins. And he rose again on the 3rd day. If you’ll simply believe (aka trust) on him for your salvation, you receive what he possesses and merits and has merited (eternal life, sinlessness, perfection in God’s eyes) and you have received it justly because in Christ is the payment of all sins.
And get this, the life which is in God’s Son is EVERLASTING meaning it never ends. And it is our spirit which inherits it, not our flesh. So the works of our flesh will never get us unsaved. The works of our life will determine not our salvation, but our rewards at the judgment seat of Christ. If someone is saved (simply by believing on the Lord Jesus Christ) and his works are nasty, he is still saved.
1 Corinthians 3:15
“But if any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire”
Salvation is by faith alone because first of all the bible says so (ephesians 2:8-9) and because you possess the substance of what your faith is in. For example if you put your faith into a stock by investment, you possess whatever that stock contains.
So if you will, say this prayer:
“Lord Jesus Christ, I am a sinner. And I believe and trust on you alone to save my soul. I believe you died for ALL my sins. And I believe you rose again on the 3rd day. Amen”
Now because you believed in the true gospel, you HAVE everlasting life. 1 john 5:13 “these things have I written unto you that BELIEVE on the name of the Son of God, that YE MAY KNOW that YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE”
If you said that, congratulations you now have ETERNAL life and God’s great promises:
Because you believed, you:
-will never hunger and never thirst, you have all you need (john 6:35 kjv)
-currently have everlasting life (john 6:47 kjv)
-will be risen up at the last day(john 6:39 kjv)
-will never be lost from Jesus(john 6:39 kjv)
-are born again of God with a sinless spirit(1 john 5:1-18 kjv)
-have done the will of God (john 6:29-40 kjv)
And many more!
God bless you
Welcome to the family of God brother or sister 🙏✝️

Let's read "God's Word!"
Let's see how "God" speaks to me.
Oh yes, God told me...

It's all about Me!
This is why 99% percent of schizophrenics are religious because they believe God is speaking to them.
Bullsh*t!
God does not speak.
God is silent.
I hope you all learn this valuable lesson because many schizophrenics kill themselves because they believe in what they see and hear and no one believes them.
I have tried to kill myself 4 times, and not once did God intervene.
God watches
God listens
God is silent
Pray 4 me.
The clock is ticking...

@tannerfrancisco8759 Says:
The resurgence of Calvinism is driving a wave of aposty in evangelical Christianity. It is a false gospel, it is idolatry, it is works-based salvation at its core, and it's literally empowered by demons.
Some of the most prominent pastors in American Christianity right now are wolves in sheep's clothing, unsaved, with anti-Christ agendas.
John MacArthur's Grace Community Church and Master's College are Lordship Salvation cults and he's leading millions of Christians into renouncing God's grace in their hearts and instead trusting in his false doctrines and their own works to prove their salvation--becoming apostate while still thinking you're a Christian. When there is so little discernment in the body of Christ that you have the biggest name in American Evangelism is literally an agent of Satan on the earth, we have a huge problem and hardly anyone is aware of it.
