This is actually quite accurate to how Satan works. Satan tries to make himself seem more appealing and palatable to the alternative

3·1 day agoIn my experience, Chav has never been used to describe a normal working class person. In Northern Ireland, we had our own variant “Spide” or “Smick” which were generally more tame. Less burberry more tracksuits

You know the New Testament is filled with old testament citations of prophecies being fulfilled? One prophecy was even written there so Jesus could fulfill it on the spot.
Luke 4:16-30
And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. And he began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” And all spoke well of him and marveled at the gracious words that were coming from his mouth. And they said, “Is not this Joseph’s son?” And he said to them, “Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, ‘“Physician, heal yourself.” What we have heard you did at Capernaum, do here in your hometown as well.’” And he said, “Truly, I say to you, no prophet is acceptable in his hometown. But in truth, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heavens were shut up three years and six months, and a great famine came over all the land, and Elijah was sent to none of them but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.” When they heard these things, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath. And they rose up and drove him out of the town and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, so that they could throw him down the cliff. But passing through their midst, he went away.

0·2 days agoThis is a silly post. The Christian doctrine is that the Bible is the inspired word of God. So if Christianity is true, then yes, the Bible is reliable. Most of the doctrine in the Bible is by God (Jesus is God) or a guy Jesus appeared to in front of two other people and also prophesied to someone else that he should do missionary work. Also gave him His holy spirit to the point he raised dead people to life.
Inventing stuff is quite tricky when a lot of Jesus’ preaching was in crowds which carry numerous written testimonies

3·2 days agoThat’s completely and historically not true. Popes as we know them generally came about centuries later, by that time the New Testament was already in wide circulation (it was being widely circulated in three continents by the beginning of the second century so editing it after that point would have been impossible)

I think the way some people want to use it is satanic.
Revelation 13:14-15 ESV
and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived. And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.
