That’s fine- I actually agree with that. The Creeds go more in depth than that though.

Hi, long time no chat! I am aware of that, and that if I ask “but what does that mean”, folks struggle to answer. I acknowledge their right to believe as they do (obviously), but this isn’t a specific belief I can sign my name to or agree that passing this theology test is essential for salvation.

The mortal man isn't making anything. You actually standing out in public and formally declaring your commitment to each other, God, and everyone else makes a marriage. Ideally in a church setting, bring in that spiritual component. The building itself, the mortal man, the paperwork, etc are...

Ideally, marriage should be done at church, with the blessing of the church and state. It doesn’t have to be fancy, and I would argue that fanciness is often is a huge distraction. Yes, it is important to actually say “I do” and make a formal commitment to each other and God. Not just have...

Honestly I’m not even sure where to start with it, and anticipate just being blown off.

I PASSIONATELY disagree with you here on very point here.

I’m very much a fan of studying- amen to that!

Again, I find your actions here to be hypocritical and sinful, focused not on having people follow Christ but follow the Church of Amigo. I know you’re not going to change, but I will state that.

People are wicked flawed sinners. They get things wrong. Some get it wrong because they hear what they want to hear. Other strive to follow the best with full intent, but we all still fall short. For me, a big thing is that we (individually and collectively) need continual guidance directly...

It's your Creed, not mine. What do you believe is meant by "In the unity of the Godhead there be three persons, of one substance"? And why is this so important to you?

I don’t find Scripture saying anything about “substance “ of God so I cannot agree with that statement. Hence I cannot ratify the Athanasian Creed nor WCF. I am curious of that when I encounter people whom do believe in some degree of theological test is required.

<emphasis above is mine> @Lifelong_sinner , I have a question for you. I full heartedly believe that the Father, Son, and Spirit are 3 distinct persons in 1 God. Each of them has always existed, is all powerful, all good, all merciful, all just, etc. But after much study, I do not believe...

Amigo, I'll be direct here. I love you passion for Christ. That is totally awesome. However, I see you frequently rant about other beliefs/persons. As a "Mormon", I'm a regular target of those rants and they are very inaccurate. I love Christ, though of course I do not sit in the same pew...

I recommend starting the conversation by asking a person about their love of Christ & listening to their answer :)

I said that there are many beliefs. That is different than saying there are many Gospels- obviously there is only 1 Gospel. However, because humans are sinners, they are always going to have different beliefs, yes with many bad docterines thrown in there. There’s no point in bemoaning that- it...

So does how we treat each other. Many people whom “are defending the Biblical truth” are in reality just being clanging cymbals (Cor. 13:1).

Amen.

When somebody says “no thank you”, and you keep pushing the matter anyways, that’s not sharing. That’s spamming.

You completely missed the point of my post.

There are many different beliefs because there are many different persons in the world. We aren’t clones. And there will forever continue to be thus, even if we were to live in a theocracy where all other views were visablly suppressed ( which would just hide the other views).
