BLM is a poor substitute for Christianity

Acts 10.28,35 records, he said to them: “You are well aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with or visit a Gentile. But God has shown me that I should not call anyone impure or unclean……but accepts from every nation the one who fears Him and does what is right.

 

Christianity is the only religion in the world that teaches all men are created by God from one man so all men are equal before God. Our founders knew this and wrote it into their declaration of independence though it was yet to be practiced at a national scale anywhere in the world. (more…)

Why do we think the One True God is copacetic with people creating whatever path they choose to get to Him? (more…)

It is absolutely amazing to me that the Creator has so completely intertwined His command to love Him with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength, with the command to love our neighbor as our self. This command of God is entirely unique to Christianity among all religions in the world, now or ever. (more…)

Everyone is a Priest

Hosea 4.8 observes, you can’t tell the people from the priests, the priests from the people. I’m on My way to make them both pay and take the consequences of the bad lives they’ve lived.

One of the major doctrinal shifts that came out of the Reformation is the empowerment of all Christians to live and serve God as priests – the priesthood of all believers. This teaching throughout the New Testament and modeled by God in Jesus whose twelve disciples were not from the religious class but from the working class, was finally implemented during the Reformation after a long hiatus beginning around 300AD.
