    Hello folks. Have you guys heard of Open Hymnal? It is a Christian hymn book which is free to use, and most of the songs have no copyright. The website looks like something from 2001, but the Open Hymnal 2014 version is just over a decade old. God bless the folks who have worked on this...

    Answering Vocab's Malone critique

    ️ May the Christ God bless you! ️ I came across a video of a street apologetic with a protestant background Vocab Malone. He criticizes eastern orthodoxy. But I think his critique is more based on his lack of understanding of our theology and conservatism. Here is what I wrote to him on YouTube...

    Difference between High Church and Anglo-Catholic and can Anglo-Catholics identify as Protestants?

    Whenever there is talk on Anglo-Catholicism Vs Evangelicalism, you often hear or read that one emphasises the Catholic nature of the Anglican church and the other emphasises the Protestant nature, but can (or are) Anglo-Catholics still considered Protestants? Do AC's see themselves as Protestant...

    What in theology prevent Protestant, Catholic and Orthodox from being simply "Christians"?

    I've been growing up in Northern Europe, so as I was faced with conversion from Buddhism into Christianity I eventually met other Christians that told me of Christianity in a distinct Protestant flavor, but I didn't ever feel I was met with a God that first demanded of me to choose between one...

    Denominations

    I'm a Buddhist, but I'm curiously drawn to reading the Bible and feel a certain comfort in reading and holding it. In Buddhism we do have different schools and styles, but for the most part, we respect each others denominations and see them all as valid. I find Christians seem to have much...

    Regeneration and Faith

    Does regeneration precede faith, or does faith precede regeneration? My position is that they occur together spontaneously, yet if you were to find an order it would be first regeneration then faith. I understand the moment of our conversion as the quickening of the soul, by the sole power of...

    Detroit Diocese Sued Over Funeral Sermon

    Some kid committed suicide and had a funeral in a catholic church. Apparently the priest preached against suicide, indicating that the decedent wasn't in Heaven as a result. His parents have now sued the church claiming emotional distress and such. Here are my thoughts. First of all, the...

    General Protestant Forum

    Yes, I know that this has been already suggested. I think it should be suggested again. The famous 'five solas' unites all Protestant traditions, and I think this is what should single out that forum from the others. Simply categorizing us as Non-Denomination is not enough, since many other...

    Conversing with Catholics

    I was talking to a Roman Catholic the other day and I felt myself getting annoyed because this person was telling me things about Revelations that are wrong. For example, saying that the book of Revelations is what the Catholic mass is based on? What? I left behind the Catholic faith. I...

    Filioque and the Protestant West

    I am aware a lot of people do not know what it is, so here is the very short story. At the Council of Constantinople 381 the Nicene Creed was established. At the Council of Ephesus in 435 anathemas we declared against those who added to or took away from the Creed At the Council of Chalcedon in...

    Adequate Study Finds Protestant Doctrine is Based in the Scriptures

    From a recently mentioned article: Here’s Proof That Not Every Protestant Doctrine is Biblical "Yet a curious double standard seems to be in play here, whether intended or not. The New Testament never mentions a host of things that Protestants of various stripes believe in. For example, it...
