What is the weirdest "Christian" doctrine you have ever personally encountered?

[Frogster]

*TIME TO STIR THE POT A BIT*

For what its worth to the drunk thing, Jesus' own words seem to verify He drank alcoholic beverages...

Matt 11:19
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' But wisdom is proved right by her deeds."

Or:

"You aren't allowed to pray and ask God for healing. He's already given it to you! Healing is in the vending machine in the lobby, so don't bug God if it's broken or if you don't have enough faith to buy what you want. It's your own fault if you can't get it to work!"

Well it's a lot easier than asking if you can pray for someone. Just blame the ones that are sick. My goodness. Sounds like:
“Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

Witchcraft is harmless fun if presented in a children's book!

Another one:

Halloween isn't the devil's holiday. Nothing evil happens on Halloween. There aren't really Satanists or witches or persons involved in the occult.
All that stuff is really just make believe stuff we see in the movies. Not even demons are they real anymore. Demons were an occasional problem they had in the olden days when Jesus lived but there aren't any demons anymore.

"we wrestle not against principalities and powers because there aren't any"

 

[Gospel Guy]

"we wrestle not against principalities and powers because there aren't any"

That's one of satan's favorite quotes... he probably made up that rumor!

"we wrestle not against principalities and powers because there aren't any"

Where have you heard that one.

Another weird one I just heard: Eve had seks with satan and he was Cain's natural father.

On these threads believe it or not

Now, that's quite possible because the Bible does talk about fallen angels apparently doing the wild thang with women which is how those giants got here (the nephilim).

We know it wasn't the stork that brought 'em...

If eating the fruit meant having sex with satan, Adam would have had sex with him too, hmmmmm...

 

[Gospel Guy]

Not necessarily that since satan could not produce a child doing that with Adam which was what he was wanting to do in order to pollute the human race so God would not have a pure human line to bring forth Jesus, the second Adam.

satan knew this was coming cause God told him one was coming that was going to bruise his head... and ever since then satan has been doing everything he possibly can to overtake and control the human race.

he cannot touch or harm God in anyway, so he's continually trying to destroy as many men as possible... in the end times, 1/3 of the earth's population about about to die in the not too distant future so he is gonna kill off quite a few folks who rejected Jesus.

It's about to get very interesting here shortly... this is the greatest time in the history of the earth to be alive, cause we going to see some stuff!

Hey Chill out Gospel Guy
I didn't say that because wine means wine that we should guzzle it

personally I like a pina colada once in awhile... wine gives me a headache

when you store wine in jars - eventually your going to get wine... it may have a very low alcohol content but it was wine

 

[Andrea411]

I'm going to say the weirdest thing I ever encountered was when I was a kid and a man picked up a water moccasin out of a submerged fish cage to save its life from my grandparents who were about to kill it and telling them "don't hurt God's little creature."

To which my grandfather responded "well you better get in your car and keep driving because if you put God's little creature down around here, I'm gonna kill it."

What about you? Any interesting stories you care to share?

1)that its ok to be a muslim while your a Christian pastor... really???

2)and the LDS thing about wearing garmies... magic underwear... the women usually wear the t-shirt part under their bras (how uncomfortable) and some never ever take it completely off.. even to bath or be intimate....

3) flagellants” who believed that the best way to absolve sin was to beat yourself silly with whips, switches and other nasty, painful devices to imitate the beating of Christ.
