Conservative #protestants believe that liberal Protestants believe that anything goes theologically and sin is okay. Liberal Protestants believe that conservatives are too much in bed with the #GOP and have forgotten #Jesus ' command to love one another in a sea of #oldtestament legalism. I just want to find a #church that studies the #bible, does acts of #charity in the community, and won't kill me for believing in #evolution or that #lgbt people deserve love not hate. Is this possible?

You know, the #protestants broke off from #Catholicism because of the selling of #indulgences, but isn't the #prosperitygospel literally the same thing?

Why is the Pope the only world...

Dzielnica protestancka najlepiej oddaje charakter dawnego Węgrowa. Dalej jest tam wiele drewnianych domów, kiedyś typowych dla miast wschodniej Polski. Niezwykle ciekawy jest stary kościół z XVII wieku. Kalwińska wspólnota miała wznieść budowlę w ciągu 1 doby. O dziwo dalej stoi, co świadczy o polskiej trwałości prowizorki 😉
Potem kościół trafił w ręce luteran i był parafią dla Warszawy aż do zbudowania kościoła św. Trójcy! To do Węgrowa jeździło się na ewangelickie śluby.
Na cmentarzu łatwo zauważyć kilka barokowych płyt nagrobnych. To pamiątki po szkockich prezbiterianach — uchodźcach z kraju z czasów wojen religijnych.
A przecież jest w Węgrowie jeszcze starsza historia arian z XVI wieku! To w tym mieścia miał umrzeć profesor chłopskiego pochodzenia — Piotr Giezka z Goniądza.
Także Węgrów zdaje się być mazowiecką stolicą protestantyzmu.

While many #Protestants celebrate the victory as part of Northern Ireland’s history & culture, the celebrations often fuel tensions with #Catholics who oppose continuing British rule in the territory.

Bonfires have sometimes been an issue due to flags, effigies or election posters that are placed on the pyres before they are ignited.

The Police Service of #NorthernIreland said its officers would be on the ground through the weekend & would take “firm & proportional action to keep people safe.”

This is inane. #Christians who actually believe in what the #Scriptures say (#Protestants should) know that our calling from God is not to establish a nation state, but to reach the nations. We belong to the Kingdom. What the Federalist's Sean Davis is arguing is antithetical to the #GreatCommission. https://x.com/seanmdav

“Therefore, #confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed.” (James 5:16; ESV)

It seems that in spite of our high view of #scripture many #protestants simply ignore this verse. “I can just go to Jesus and be forgiven” is the common retort. And yet Scripture tells us to confess to one another and pray for the other’s healing from sin.

The #Anglican, #Catholic, and #Orthodox traditions are being more wholly faithful to Scripture when they encourage the faithful to go to #confession .

#theology #bible #discipleship

Watching fellow #Protestants on X commit heresy in an effort to deny Mary is the mother of God. 🤦‍♂️ It really isn’t rocket science: John 1:1-14, Luke 1:26-38. The great tradition is simply affirming what #Scripture itself teaches.

Atheists are now the largest group in Germany.

For the first time ever, Germany has more atheists (47%) than Catholics and Protestants combined (45%).

This decline in faith is particularly noticeable in southern states such as Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria.

[17:39] Mary Lou McDonald pays tribute to convicted IRA killer Brendan ‘Bik’ McFarlane after his death aged 74

Mary Lou McDonald has paid tribute to a senior IRA figure who was jailed for life for his part in a pub massacre in which five innocent Protestants were killed and is believed to have been involved in the 1983 kidnapping of Don Tidey.

We recently finished the series #DerryGirls, and my hubby found a podcast from Telegraph which tells the awful truth of why #IrishCatholics were so pissed off at #Protestants in #NorthernIreland. Housing and employment #discrimination, harrassment, lack of #VotingRights, etc. Did you know that only if you owned property you could vote, and business owners could vote twice! And guess who owned most of the property and businesses! No wonder there was rebellion!

Additionally, I sometimes wonder how things might be different if #Protestants and #Evangelicals didn’t suppress the Apocrypha/Deuterocanonical books and we actually read passages like these more frequently?

🔴 🇫🇷 **Fighting Calvin and Muhammad in Wall Almanacs after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes**

_Combining visual and textual analysis, this article suggests that royal image makers linked Muslims and Protestants to defend the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes and manifest the French king's religious zeal and imperial ambition while distracting from the ahdname (capitulations) granted by the Ottoman sultan that precluded France from joining a Catholic alliance to fight the “Turkish menace.”_

I support #ScottishIndependence bit as I pointed out to a few Scots, there are gaping holes on how this would work in reality, especially the border, tax, benefits, pensions, security, North Sea oil etc

#Irish reunification is a more simple affair because of their geographical location. However, the Ulster men see things very differently. They STILL see themselves as #British, when most on the mainland don't 🤷🏾‍♂️

Young #Protestants are pro-Ireland because they want to be European

..waren #protestants geworden met toestemming van een katholieke #voorouder van mij die #voogd was voor zijn #voorouder. Want zo ging dat in die tijd. Pas als je 25 was, werd je als volwassene gezien in een huwelijk.
Grappig is ook dat mensen denken: 'hij is katholiek en ik niet, dus kan hij geen #familie zijn, ook al heeft hij mijn #achternaam'. 😍

Geen idee wat hij met deze info heeft gedaan. Maar de geschiedenis van je #voorouders blijkt soms #wonderlijk.

Lees soms dat mensen terug verlangen naar de goede oude tijd, de jaren 50 en 60, toen wij #nederlanders nog wisten hoe het 'heurde'.
Tja, in die tijd wist iedereen nog welke #winkelier #katholiek of #protestants was en ging je naar de #winkel van je 'eigen soort'. 🙄
Beetje moeilijk nu als #winkeliers niet op hun deur schrijven 'ik stem #pvv', zoals #moslim #winkeliers wél durven zeggen: 'ik ben een #halal-slager' of zoiets.

Iets om over na te denken?

Today's #SociologyOfReligion reflection:

In the USA, we have a #president who is a serious #RomanCatholic. This is not a very big deal, in comparison to all the fuss in the 1960 election, when many #Protestants had their knickers in a twist. They feared that John Kennedy would take orders from the #pope.

What are your thoughts about this? I have a hypothesis...

If #Jews follow the culture and customs of #Judah and the #Protestants arose frae the protestations of a king with dodgy sperm, then WHO is Cathol, and why are they worshipped by #Catholics?
