Cool, that makes sense! Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. I'll always interpret the Bible literally:) Still, I don't understand how a Christian can say that the bible is "ancient context" and no longer apples to today. I'm not going to conform to modern day values because other people...

THANK YOU. This video is great and everyone should have a look!

No. Absolutely not what i said. I used my friend disliking Trump as an example (because Trump is conservative) to suggest that some Christian's do not support conservative views, and then I went on to ask why this is. Again, never once did I say that some sins are bigger than others. I have not...

haha! I keep forgetting, I mean "college". It just sounds so weird to me:)

Awesome!Thanks for the reply.

dude, he/she willingly made that argument because he/she felt that the "self-sufficient" part of the post was made unclear and didn't address people with disabilities because it said "with few exceptions, obviously" (and disabilities was included in the "few exceptions"). If you read the earlier...

girll, I'm in the same place as you. I'm 19 and in my second year of uni! I love talking about deep things and I often think sooo deeply about life and the world and how we are just here on this planet. You're not the only one haha It blows my mind that people can go through life without knowing...

Right. It's as if Christians these days are trying to make sense of scripture in a way that supports what they want. Example, Liberal: "Jesus loves and forgives homosexuals, so lets support and make legal gay marriage". Another example, "Jesus loves and forgives me even if I am homosexual, so...

I would love to communicate. Please, start off by explaining which conservative views do not support Christianity. And next, explain how conservatives are not interpreting scripture properly. Thanks.

Yes. "Claim" meaning they say "I believe that Jesus died on the cross for our sins and rose 3 days later". Is that not the very basic understanding of being a Christian?

It is not my standards. It is the Bible's. Please get your facts straight and stop assuming standards I supposedly place on Christianity.

Again, never once did I say that some sins are bigger than others. I have not said that, for for example homosexuality or murder (abortion), is way worse than lying. NO. I said that if the Bible opposes the sin of homosexuality and murder, why would we as Christians want to make it legal. Please...

Okay, first off.. when we are talking about Liberal Christians, we are NOT talking about the way in which they interpret scripture. NO. Instead, we are talking about liberal beliefs, values, standards and how that does not support Christianity. Whereas conservative views do.

I never thought this would turn into a debate, nor did I intend it to. I genuinely thought I would receive Christian support that conservatism backs up Christian views. BUT it resulted in the exact opposite... ugh modern Christians *eye roll*

Bro! Never once did I say I believe in the "Republican" Jesus. I suggested that conservative beliefs, morals, values, and standards support Christianity, on the other hand Liberalism does not.

Thanks! The Bible’s statement, “For the wages of sin is death …” (Romans 6:23), applies to all sin, whether in thought, word, or deed. Maybe I was thinking along the lines that all sins are equal in that they separate us from God.

Disappointing... it really seems as if Christian Fourms is largely liberal, or perhaps there is a liberal bias from the type of individuals responding. I'm new to the site and from seeing these response, I am quite disheartened. Modern day Christians seem to have conformed to modern day...

well if Jesus did not promote sin, then why would we? Liberalism seems to be promoting sin by accepting and making legal things such as murder (abortion), homosexuality, transgenderism. okay, so sins are all equal according to God, I'll agree with that. BUT again, why would we as Christians...

the reason it has become a debate is because people like you who state they are liberal because of scripture do not have scripture to back themselves up.

Absolutely. This is what I meant when I said "Life takes hard work, things should not be handed to people.. (with few exceptions, obviously)." A disability is totally out of your control and it is a wonderful blessing that society has resources for people with disabilities, also welfare for...
