Well God and Christ are completely separate entities. I mean they're working together to a common goal, and they're related, but Christ is as discrete a being as God. You know that's true because while people say 'Jesus is God' absolutely no one says 'God is Jesus'. If they were one and the same then the commutative property would apply.

Also, if they were one being then Jesus would possess God's knowledge, and he wouldn't be asking silly question like the one in Matthew 27:46.

So since Jesus and God are separate entities with their own thoughts and agendas, it's very possible to serve two masters at once, especially since their goals clearly converge. I can see you don't follow the True Faith and so are confused. Cast aside the lies and heresy of Luther and come back to the Holy Father. The one in Rome I mean.

The Nicene creed is the orthodox evolution of the pharisees' and sadducees' post-hoc hijacking of the ascetic and monastic fundamentals of Christ's teachings.

Hope this helps.

Most people aren't actually stupid so deep down they have to see the contradictions.

the operant metrics are bloodthirstiness and stupidity. if they're lacking one they have the other in spades. At this point, the average American is okay with murder. Full stop.

I even investigated the hearts of every forum poster I could. Pokesan and Juris seem to be the only ones decent, and well, Pokesan is dead useless with like 30 level 60s and I am still teaching Juris you can't just liquidate people because they got to eat nice food most of their life.

edit: xaanka turned out good and azzar might be good too.

we are all good ones, comrade cecily, comrade imperiouskitten. god gave all mankind eyes and ears to perceive truth, faculties to comprehend it, and free will to act accordingly and virtuously. there is a plan, but there is not fate: in every action, we choose to sin, by choosing to serve empire, as we choose to be faithful, by choosing to serve christ. we cannot serve both, for we cannot serve christ in sin.

do not assume the lord's sight for yourself so that you may stand in judgment on your comrades. none were given sight into the hearts of men, for that is where the lord put his truth in us. incomprehensible and ineffable to each of us, yet into which any one of us may freely seek shelter from the storm. and yet our blindness is no failing, but rather the very foundation of a perfect and blessed spiritual fortress, a railing which safeguards mankind from falling beyond the reach of salvation, from mammon, from damning himself truly like the morning star. it is precisely thus that every man who is in christ, which any man may freely be, is saved.

go in christ, comrades.

I mean, yeah, but he has a nice body. Forgive me, Father, for I have covented my neighbor's ass.

[zodium]

i tell you, your neighbor's ass is divine. that is the lord's ass, comrade cecily. the lord designed your neighbor's ass. the lord brought the ass to us. the lord breathed life into the ass. as the lord did give you eyes to see the ass, and faculties to perceive its beauty. partake in the ass. but do not covet your neighbor's ass for yourself--for when you covet the ass, it ceases to be an ass at all, turning to mere flesh in your very hands, becoming a dead thing. you must atone. restore to the ass its divinity; once more align your perceptual apparatus to see the ass and to perceive its beauty, not as an object of desire, but as a hot ass.

go in christ.

But you said St. Peter killed that couple dead on the spot when their unrepentent reprobacy was detected. If I hear God's voice (and I do) am I not also as a prophet?
