Christians of Moddb
Hobbies & Interests
This group is exactly what the name implies. A group for people who are Christians. If you're a Christian then please join us. We're a place on ModDB for Christians to gather and talk. It's as simple as that.
This is well worth a read, and in general I would say I agree with most of what was said. The only thing I would add is that it's not bad for, say, a girl to not be as "girly"; God made each person with their own personalities and that does make a girl more interested in boyish things or a woman that prefers traditionally male-associated interests or activities any less of a Godly women.
""The talking animals of Walt Disney films and pop culture have charmed many of us. But a Disneyfied concept of narcissistic self-determination has not done us any favors. The culture has offered us a false gospel, one that approves of all we do, leaving us to pursue anything we desire.
The scriptural gospel is far better. It makes sense of our humanity. It restores our dignity. It calls us to be men and women who see our body as a gift, a vessel by which we may give glory to our Maker and Redeemer. This may sound too good to be true, but the church exists to make one thing clear: this is no fairy tale.
It is the message of Scripture, and the hope of us all.""
The world is too permissive, and at the same time, all too punishing. Those who fight Nature are blessed by Men to whom belong Sin, and cursed by God to whom belongs Nature.
These people are fooling themselves, and people like these are the reason our civilization is falling apart. It was not the teachings of the Greeks or the might of the Romans that made the West great, it was the blessing of God and His excusing of our sinful nature, that elevated us from barbarity, when neither greek nor roman could be found standing.
This is one of the reasons I no longer feel attached to society, it has grown twisted and alien, it perverts the natural, calls evil good, and good evil. It is ready to be burnt upon the altar of the Lord, on the fires of Armageddon.
Amen. So glad this world is not our final home. Because that would *suck*.
Still, continue to pray for and do your part in this world as we pass through. And most importantly, glorify God and evangilize, and hopefully lead more to Christ
*In a nutshell.
You've got it right. Worst part about it though, is this society today risks twisting the individuals living beside it as well. No matter how just they may appear or seem.
All the more reason to stick up for each other, even when one of us is down.
When you're down, having a hard time getting up, and are living in sin. What you don't need is a kick in the gut, what you need is a hand to help you up.
Hmmm... I'll propably get some hate over this but yeah...
I actually don't have a problem with it, imagine that you live in a body that is completely wrong with your spirit... It must be a hell, its like being homosexual you don't choose to be that (in my way of thinking).
I don't say I like homosexual people and transgenders, but you don't have to bash them. That's just stupid imo
How can you make something proud that you hate? Look at Stephen Hawking a briliant mind in a wrong body... I look the same at transgenders, a mind in a wrong body (even if there is actually nothing wrong with the body)
Even God can make an mistake, that's what I think
I've said
Everyone has a choice.
Although we all have a proclivity to something, vices like gambling, drinking, lust, etc. Hence why you need power to beat it. Power only Christ can give.
As for disabilities and other physical/mental problems, tests of faith. That's just the way people of faith see things. Not all of us are gonna have the same challenges in life, but more glory to God for those who beat it with Christ.
And in the end, that's where all the glory goes anyway, to God.
By the way, it's not bashing, it's calling it out for what it is. I don't know why this generation had to be brought up to believe you can be whatever you want even if your chromosomes specifically tell otherwise but it's just silly. Everything has a purpose and function. That's the way God intended it, if you believe something is wrong with you than that's between you and God to resolve.
But telling society you're a guy when you're a girl, etc.
I believe the original apostles would be disappointed.
