I really want to put my faith in God and become Christian, but when reading the Old Testament I feel like the whole thing was written by savages for savages. Slavery, sexual abuse, murder, fucked up rituals... There's so much fucked up shit, I don't get how a civilized person can say "yeah, this is the wors of God." >inb4 but Christians don't follow all the rules of the OT Yeah, that's nice, but they still see it as a word of God. They still see Moses as a prophet even though he preached totally fucked up shit like it's ok to keep slaves and if you rape a virgin who is not engaged you should marry her.
The NT seems so nice and comforting to me, but many things in the OT disgust me. I don't want to live an atheistic life, I want to accept God, but I struggle with accepting the whole Bible.
Just do me a favor and read the Talmud and Koran first

take the Gnostic pill
The OT "god" is not the real "God", it's a distortion known as the Demiurge Physical matter is inherently evil and a trap for our spirits All forms of worship of any named "god" are actually directed to the Archons, the children or manifestations of the Demiurge. When we die, the Archons wait for us and pretend to be our loved ones or Jesus Christ, and they do everything they can to convince us to reincarnate back into the Demiurge's Matrix Don't let any "god" give you a life review and subject you to guilt tripping Don't let any "god" or spirit take you anywhere Don't trust any "spirit guides" Be your own sovereign spirit and source of Light
I think this post is pretty relatable. That one story in Genesis or Exodus of them going to murder a tribe right after they circumcised themselves... I mean, are those really the good guys of the story? The ones who encourage their enemies to cut their dicks and then go murder them while they're recovering? Where's the honor in that?
Jeremiah Harris
OT is a mix of history/parables/genealogy setting up stuff for Jesus and telling the stories of how Israel repeatedly tried to jew God. It's meant more for context to give the NT more meat.
Kevin Collins
If gnostics are right then why are there good in the world too?
Cameron Bailey
What good do you see? Where does it come from? Does it come from nature, or does it come from someone's heart?

Slavery, sexual abuse and murder are good wen done to the NPC populace. Since NPCs have no soul, so no sin has been committed. They are not conscious, only react to external stimuli.
Eli Hill
>Slavery, sexual abuse, murder, fucked up rituals... Try and get some reading comprehension retardo. God orders a genocide, and it's against a bunch of child-sacrificing, molech worshiping cannanites. Laws regarding things like virgin rape isn't meant to encourage raping, it's to hammer in the point that no man is going to want used goods and that the father is responsible for ensuring his daughter's virginity.

You're just asking why does nature procreate. That has nothing to do with good or evil.

...that's too stupid to warrant a real response. Get raked moron.

When you're reading the Bible, ask yourself what deeper meaning there might be to what you're reading. Like the tabernacle for instance. It's inside you. Read some esoteric stuff to supplement what you're reading in the Bible and come to a better understanding of things.
Thomas Richardson
Sorry bro but the YHWH of the old testament is the same as the YHWH of the new testament. In fact, stop calling it the "new testament." Your ways are not His ways. Your understanding of righteousness is filthy rags to His righteousness. Those times where peoples were killed by His people were justified because of the many crimes (infanticide, bestiality, sodomy) of those people. Jesus followed God's law and so should you if you claim to follow Him. Stoning fags only happens when the legal system is in place to perform those acts. Don't go stoning fags but understand that they deserve death. But there are things we do that deserve death too.
All I have on Christianity, the teachings, morals, philosophy, law, history, origin etc.
History Christianity being in opposition to jewry: Pagan gods being the angels Historical Evidence for Jesus How Christianity transformed the wold Correcting claims on common misrepresented parts of the history: Sodom and Gomorrah Definitions: "Dinosaurs", Behemoths and Nephilim Teachings, Doctrines and Guidelines Law: Philsophy: Pauls work OT and NT belonging together The destruction of the Temple Logical argument for the christian God Different teachings within Genesis: Satanism: Sun as symbol for God Purpose behind good and evil Metaphysics: Afterlife and Judgementday: Why Jesus is needed: Role of the chosen people Ethnicities Trivia
On forgiveness and sinning. Trust in God as an excuse to do nothing Appealing to the masses, but abbominable to God Confusing mercy and patience with weakness
Brother, take the Christian Identity pill. You will never forget this. Go to Christogenea and understand where you come from White Brother. Also, I follow all the rules of the old testament and I offered up a goat, two lambs, a young bull and two rams up to Yahweh for Pentecost and I study the Bible indepth and follow the Mosaic law because I am White and I descend from Israel. I am from the tribes of Judah (Germany) and Gad (Italy).
I have abandoned the bible, it's primary issue is that it's been kept in human hands and not gods hands, it's been changed and twisted over the thousands of years it's existed by people who were not faithful in god but sought to take advantage of the ones who were, the only way I'd trust a bible was if if an angel personally showed up and handed me a correct one. until then I'm just going off faith in my lord and praying daily for guidence so I can trust that I'm doing the right thing

>Slavery nothing wrong with it. Problem is when the slaves are mistreated which is directly warned against in the bible. In fact having a slave comes with the requirement to provide food, shelter, healthcare etc. for them. It was even common to give a slave a wife and there are laws about this. Slaves of your own kind also must be set free after iirc 7 years and you have to give him a decent amount of cash and goods to start his own life. Some even chose to stay with their master after the release (Exodus 21
>sexual abuse, murder only ever mentioned negatively
>fucked up rituals you mean animal sacrifices? consider that other tribes sacrifices their children and humans in general all around the world. Also majority of your critique comes from a point of morality that christianity itself first introduced into the people. You must understand that back in the day the OT plays in it was essentially might is right. Whatever keeps you alive is good. Thats also why God needs to make the Israelites more afraid of Him than of the foreign gods and death itself because otherwise they would have never stopped sacrificing and worshipping other gods, walking in wicked ways, as that kept them alive all this time.
Isaiah Evans
>They still see Moses as a prophet even though he preached totally fucked up shit like it's ok to keep slaves and if you rape a virgin who is not engaged you should marry her. Wrong. The punishment for rape is death of the man. Slaves were to be released after 7 years (God had to meet them where they were, which included that they had slaves.) That being said, if you were caught taking a man as a slave, you were put to death. So much of the complaints about God's law (which is perfect) is out of ignorance of it and because of miss-translations of the original Hebrew/Greek.

The God of the old Testament is the same god in the new Testament. The Bible is continual and those distinctions between old and new are very minute. Yashua just came to renew the laws of the "OT". If you think Yahweh is the demiurge you are full of the devil yourself. You have no concept of spirituality and only take spirituality from inner essence and not from the holy power above. You twist scripture and essentially do the same thing a catholic does by adding in esoteric concepts from other religions and secularizing Christianity to make it unrecognizable from its actual self.
>Does it come from nature, or does it come from someone's heart? It doesn't come from nature or somebodys heart, it comes from the fact that there is a supreme being that created everything. Everything has a beginning and not the other way around. We don't live in cycles.
To help you understand what the guy above said. molech worshipping canaanites are the kikes who claim to be israel. God orders genocides against people who are not filled with his own spirit. Other races are not filled with Yahwehs spirit. It is not Yahwehs will to sacrifice children to a satanic babylonian idol.

Then (((you))) should consider accepting another god, m8. I do mindfucks for Tzeentch, someone praise Buddha, chinamen praise Confucius. It is all matter of belief.
Grayson Bennett
If you are White then you must understand your innate tendency towards a monotheistic God (Yahweh) that has divine morality rather then other races who have tendencies to more then one God.
>Imagine thinking this was Godly in any way Yahweh is not just love. Yahweh has a lot of hate as well as other atributes.
Ian Phillips
Away with you you gnostic. Your heretical views have been disproved and shown to be Lucifer's own. You are a Montanist heretic.
Dylan Myers
What is an 'atheistic' life? Just carry on doing what you've always done but without believing in heaven or hell or god or miracles and sin and shit.
Elijah Ramirez
>The OT "god" is not the real "God", except Christ constantly cites the OT and affirms its message He says if the people would have believed Moses they would have believed Him too as well as with all the other prophets and their law which he affirms. He fulfilled countless prophecies of the OT and declared himself to be the son of the living God, which YHWH in the OT calls himself too, as well as the bridegroom when Israel is always refered to as the bride in the OT.
Gnosticism is basically an ancient hippy cult that things God is a bigoted fascist for not allowing people to whore around and have gay sex orgies. They are like a child that cant understand why a loving father would punish a child to discipline it and make it a better person in the end.
you forget that their leader first raped their sister, and we also see Jacob not liking what Levi and Simon did >30Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble upon me by making me a stench to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people of this land. We are few in number; if they unite against me and attack me, I and my household will be destroyed.” and >5Simeon and Levi are brothers; their swordsa are weapons of violence. >6May I never enter their council; may I never join their assembly. For they kill men in their anger, and hamstring oxen on a whim. >7Cursed be their anger, for it is strong, and their wrath, for it is cruel! I will disperse them in Jacob and scatter them in Israel. the point is not everything everyone does in the Bible is good.
>God orders a genocide, of those that sacrificed children and that rape foreigners that come into their towns to death. well deserved.
Bentley Morales
Is Yeshua the Messiah? Is He the one and only Son of YHWH? Was He born of a virgin? Did he teach and practice all of YHWH's law (Torah) as written by Moses?
Aiden Sanchez
i dont think you can rape but its considered fornication if she doesnt scream/struggle. also slavery was indentured servitude, you cant just kidnap someone. slaves were people who owed or surrendered in war.
