Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
The Bible says the exact opposite, saying you shouldn’t be a hard person, but God will turn you into a soft one. Religious people are so stupid sometimes.
Yeah I think if you go back to Genesis you'll see that God pretty clearly wanted a naive vegan nudist roommate.
Don’t we all?
Unless you're Job. Fuck that guy and his herd animals and wives.
Don’t forget all his dead kids
Ugh. You people are so whiny. He got new kids, he's fine. You can barely tell the difference.
God is such a prankster XD
Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love for one another, a tender heart, and a humble mind.
Some transitions encourage us to be "meek" as well.
"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth."
In some translations it's"humble" or "gentle".
No need for the qualifier. Religion is dumb.
Sometimes?
Shhh I was trying to be nice
The show Scrubs sort of changed my perspective on this. Religion has its place as a thing for people to grab on to in order to give them the strength to make it to the next day.
The problem comes when religion is used to oppress others.
You think these people read the Bible?
It’s very selective. They know Bible stories from Sunday school and have been told a few passages.
It’s a really complicated anthology of books written across 1000ish years (earliest being fragmentary bits of poetry preserved in altered context, most of it being 400 BCE on). Tons of it is related to distant political struggles or cultural norms, stuff so hopelessly distant from us and written in hard to understand language (especially with this KJV only-ists.)
Then, you add 2000 years of history, pop culture, and interpretation. It’s a really difficult text and it’s difficult for anyone to understand without getting a lot of support and context. The context is often presented in a misleading way, pick your denomination and flavor of distortion
Isn't mud pretty soft?
The virgin Mary isn’t gonna be a virgin forever with that kinda talk.
If Jesus came back, these dipshits would have him crucified way faster than those nerd ass Romans.
He would be called an anti-semite as soon as he criticized the mass murdering of his countrymen in Palestine.
In the U.S. we'd have him deported for being brown and communist/socialist/Marxist or whatever the current trend is to accuse people of.
woke
That woke as brown spanish named bastard
Don’t forget DEI

Was Jesus “hard?” Not from what I’ve read. He was a kind, gentle, caring soul who avoided confrontation, never harmed anyone, and preach forgiveness, compassion, and love.
The right wing and their obsession over “manliness” is so pathetic.
Well there was that one time he started flipping tables and whipping people. But that was against grifters selling shit in the temple, so...
Yeah. He lost his temper once but that’s the exception proving the rule.
Yeah, when asking "What would Jesus do?" it's important to remember that extraordinary violence might be one of the answers.
I dunno. Maybe. Have you seen that jacked up Korean Jesus?
That's the out Jesus for me. Otherwise I'm a weird pagan
I think what cracks me up is this Eric Conn dude is probably a keyboard warrior working a desk job or something. I highly doubt he's out busting his ass herding cattle and building fences then making some self righteous post on xitter.
Where is the passage where God asked men to be hard?
When God says "cum before me"
Probably Genesis 3:17-19. Our society has turned decadent. We have to go back to toiling in the fields, as God intended!
....No? That's literally the exact opposite of what the biblical God expects of men.
Jesus says that men should be compassionate, selfless, giving, and loving. That they should help orphans & widows, the sick & injured, people in prison and even..... foreigners.
Christianity has been invaded & commodified for even more horrific purposes. And I could not be more disappointed in anyone who believes this slop. Because the ones who believe this are the ones who never read the Bible and takes everything at face value.
And a pastor or someone successful claiming to be a "Christian" would never lie! Right? .....RIGHT???
They can no longer discern the wolves from their flock, and God will not have mercy on them.
Hallelujah, holy shit.
Oh, he has risen alright ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
IF YOU HARD YOU HARD
Check his avatar and that pic. Money says tough guy here couldn't hang with my old ass outside at Lowe's for a single shift. He'd stroke out if I strapped 20lbs. to his back, handed him a rifle and marched him down to the creek with me. LOL, he ain't gonna cowboy nothing.
And what in the AI is that cowboy supposed to be doing? Running, uh, fence? Creating a lasso out of, uh, ropey stuff?
