Pastors are people so of course they’re not. But you wouldn’t understand because you don’t understand mercy, grace, and forgiveness, as well as repentance.
why wouldnt i understand that stuff
what makes you think you do?
just because pastors are people it doesnt mean they automatically dont know christianity, but id bet 99% of them dont.

Because if you did, you would know that pastors are human beings, and make the same mistakes everyone else makes. Christians don’t have to be perfect because they have all those things.
The people who pretend they don’t make those mistakes are the very same people Jesus detested like the Pharisees. The ones who watched other people pray for forgiveness of their sins and said I’m really glad I’m not like that guy.
99% are human. 1% are rickyb.

That’s the majority of Christians, you’re just being purposefully dense.
The overwhelming majority of Christians are just humans trying to do the right thing. You focus on the ones who aren't for justification of how you live your life.

It’s easy to throw stones at people who have a standard and have a hard time living up to it when they fall. Because they’re human.
The ones that have no standard, and do whatever they want is difficult to judge those people. Because they don’t care.
Were talking about the system here
Isnt mainstream religion broken?
How would you know?
Yes we are.
bc i dont see any social movements coming out of the church. the church is dying and they are censoring themselves.
The Church is about being pleasing to God in this life so that you can receive eternal life. If everyone did that then there wouldn't be a need for social movements.

Christianity is not about a social movement or a social experiment. it’s a personal relationship and individual salvation.

My belief is that all Christians are perfect in Christ, and in Christ all forgiveness and righteousness is found.
My opinion, observation, and experience is lack if faith and trust in this is what makes most of us so feeble in our Christian example.

My take is that believers are saints not sinners any longer. The are new creations in Christ.

I put my faith and trust in accepting God’s forgiveness, righteousness, and love found and bound in the life, death, resurrection, and exaltation of Jesus is pleasing to God.
I believe when this is sincerely and radically accepted and surrendered to, the power of God in the person of the Holy Spirit comes, and comes with power, for those who believe.

My belief and observation is many pastors seem to lack the full power of the Holy Spirit and this is what gives the appearance of a feeble Christianity that lacks the power to carry out their own claims about it.
Have you been baptized?
