It's not just that liberals use it on going easy on homosexuality in Christianity etc. I actually wanted to cite from an article that is hard to find. This "Red Letter Christian" was handing out pamphlets in the early 2000s saying "What Jesus has to say about Homosexuality" and they are...

That kind of topic has come up before for me. Not the AI part, but there is a notion with some folks especially Pentecostals and Charismatic that Mattias being consecrated as an Apostle prior to Pentecost was a mistake. Now there are plenty of reasons to believe that this idea is the thing...

Coming in late to the conversation. I am learning a new AI, a video making one which should be of immense help because I would like to get back to content creation. Anyway the history of the New Testament Canonization process is a pet topic of mine, seeing how it is important and just not...

I agree and have a similar viewpoint! One thing that gets left out of these discussions are the various how's and whys of history. People act as if the received books are somehow obviously that way, like they glow in the dark from the Shekinah glory of the Lord rather than they were the...

Love the topic! I actually just setup an AI account at ai.Invidio and my first test run on a video movie is on the history of the formation of the Canon. Gonna drop a link here as a test. Turn ideas into videos | AI video creator | invideo AI

Yeah that does not sound like most Orthodox I have met or read. It is funny however this actually reflects your opinion of me in your first post. Perhaps there is a bit of Projection going on? At any rate why not get things from the horse's mouth rather than some guy looking to poison...

Not really needed. There are already good Orthodox Biblical Apologetics out there for any objection Protestants can raise. For example, I like this one on Infant Baptism. https://www.greekorthodox-norwich.com/post/infant-baptism-what-the-church-believes This bit of Conversation reminds me...

ug Christ promised to "build his Church and the Gates of Hell would not prevail against it". If what you believe is true it would mean that God did not keep his Word for 75% of the History of the Church and that is not what the Bible says.

Oh, it's there. It is only because of people like you and Big Boy that the elaborate explanations exist from people like me. If you don't like them, then you should stop being a critic of the Faith, because in all actuality this is one of those Shoe Should Be On the other Foot situations.

PS (edit) I just noticed that Trinitarianism is a topic that now can be talked about once again on the board. That actually is good because of what was mentioned previously regarding the proof texting of Arians...

I For the most part, I don't believe there is truly something that is extrabiblical. When folks claim that it is usually based on a perception and not on the totality of the Bible and all the customs and spiritual principles that can be derived from scripture. I have seen this time and...

Matthew 7:6 KJ21 “Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Matthew 10:14 New International Version 14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or...

Funny I have dealt with that theme before, as pious as it sounds not only is it wrong in terms of the facts it isn't even "biblical" not when you look up the entire definition of what a religion is, or the actual Greek lexicon and verses of the NT. James 1:27 KJ21 Pure religion, undefiled...

Thanks, and this does however bring up another big area. Namely the concept of "Original Sin" vs. Ancestral Sin (the eastern view that predates Augustine's one). And I got to say, I'm still grappling with this one. It is not something people write about much etc...

lol I read it too, but I still like and use it. It is the only AI I use outside of the Microsoft one that was initially installed on my laptop so many updates back. Some day, I will have to get into Chatgpt, I know it can do some cool stuff that Grok can't but I am not as tech savvy as my...

Nice summary did you use Grok?

If you don't mind me going off topic, based on recent conversation, the Priesthood of believers is a good case in point of all the stuff you learn as an Eastern Christian. The typical Protestant understanding makes this as a unique thing we have post New Testament. But if you are Orthodox...

FYI - Every area of Christianity has their version of "the Priesthood of believers" even Roman Catholicism, and the actual RC version is not as far off as the Lutheran one from which I was raised with.
