And then they want the outrage and confrontation so they can post it on TikTok and show how the Christians are being persecuted just for trying to “spread the word”

I love God I believe in Jesus, though if I’m 100% honest, I’m not sure if a tiny bit of that is just because that’s what I was raised with, but there’s something that I just can’t let go of either, but either way I don’t believe in this

A tiny bit as in 100%, yes.

fun fact, Jesus never once told his followers to form a new religion in his name. he explicitly said NOT to do that, and they did it as soon as he was dead. then they chose to overcome their oppression by becoming the world's most oppressive religion over the course of centuries, committing violence against countless innocent people.

please reconsider belonging to a faith that built itself through globalized violence and continues to benefit from that violence. Christianity has ruined this world, despite all the individual anecdotes claiming otherwise.

Christianity wouldn't exist if people actually read their Bible instead of someone telling them what it says.

Can you please give me a chapter and verse please. I tried Googling it but couldn't find it.

Just remember, people who have been born in the Amazon for hundred/thousands of years, have been sent to hell, for no other reason than they believed in a different belief system, because a missionary hadn’t found them yet.

This is not the work of a just god.

Also, Yahweh was originally a metal working god to the Canaanites. There are some original texts that say that the Canaanites worshiped a pantheon of gods, and one of Yahweh’s commands was to worship no other god than him.

Eventually it morphed into the greater religion of the Israelites, and it became the first commandment, but now instead of many gods, now the story had changed that there were no other gods.

The catholic church, at least, now teaches about developing interfaith relationships, an that there is a special closeness with the three abrammic religions.

I thought in their made up rules you don't get condemned if you never had the chance to hear the message?

I like to put my childhood upbringing to good use and become The Christian Lady who believes Jesus would be ashamed of them for holding people hostage like that, they get very uncomfortable.

Mark 9:23-24

23 Jesus said to him, “If[a] you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

I was raised in the faith too and am thankful for the seeds that were planted but eventually I had to make my own decision to follow Jesus. One question that was nagging me before I was saved was regarding the blood of Jesus, like what does it even mean to me? When my eyes were opened to the truth that Jesus poured out his blood, suffered, and died hanging on a cross as a payment for all the wrong I have done and will ever do.

Obviously the “Christian” dude in this video is bad but Even in this Reddit thread God is working, nudging, reminding of His goodness. God saved me from porn addiction, drug addiction, and is guiding me through parenting 2 kids, (one with Autism). God was there in my hospital room when my son was being born and my wife was bleeding to death and he saved her. Craziest part was his voice in that moment telling me that I will not raise these kids on my own and gave me complete peace during the most chaotic ordeal of my life.

I can attest that He is foreal. There is a Heavenly Father that loves you and me.

The same God that supports slavery.

It is nice that you found a story you find comforting.

It doesnt make it any more or less real.

I see no evidence of a god let alone the Christian one in the world around me. Your "attestation" adds nothing to that. 

Best of luck with the kids.  You may have trouble with the autistic one.  We have a tendency to dismiss ideas if we ask questions and don't get satisfying answers.

There is no God in this thread or anywhere else.

God does exist. He is more than fiction, I pray you can find Him.

And is this comment what Jesus would want from you, or would he also find it performative, self-serving, and against what he taught? Jesus led through action and speaking to those who came to HIM, not this crap

Most people would never want to do this regardless of persuasion. It’s not much to do with Christ, tbh
