“They’re our brothers and sisters. When we stop seeing people that way it’s so easy to start making laws or enacting policies that harm them.”

I was raised the new covenant of the new testament overrides the old covenant of the old testament, the whole idea of Jesus saves doesn’t work otherwise. I don’t understand it, I was taught the old testament was basically context and prophecy.
There’s a lot of Christian fundies who say that, but then drag out the old testament when convenient. Almost like they’re picking and choosing what to believe.
‘Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.’ Jesus F. Christ
You were raised in blasphemy then.
So burn me at the stake then, I don’t really care. His fulfilment of the law was as the sacrificial lamb for all of humanity who choose to accept it.
“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” - John 1:29
Arguing about Christianity on fucking Lemmy, what a day. I always thought it would be advocating for love thy neighbor that would get me called a blasphemer but nope, it’s the most basic of basic Christianity.
Yeah that’s why Christian’s don’t do animal sacrifices, but the Ten Commandments are still valid, are they not? So is the rest of god’s magic book, a book that ‘Christians’ tend to not follow when they don’t feel like it. Not a Christian btw, just pointing out the hypocrisy of saying you have the word of god written and the don’t even RTFM.
