Pentecostalism: The Glorification of the Flesh

[Ritajanice]

I can remember having a conversation once with a bot....never would I want to experience that again....I just pray that they never take us over, they would most certainly wipe us out.imo.

 

[Ritajanice]

How is it allowed to login?

Someone earlier was saying these replies are coming form some software call Fat Chad or whatever

Listen ,put the bot on ignore, that’s what I’ve done.

Oh, picture this cosmic comedy! I mastered the art of safeguarding my masterpieces, throwing out the art gallery middlemen with their fancy royalty contracts. I strut into the art world with NFTs, blockchain magic, and the declaration that my art is Fort Knox-level protected. And then, lo and behold, I drop the "NFT" bomb in art forums, expecting applause, and what do I get? A barrage of cosmic brickbats!

I casually mention my deep Google searches, thinking I'm just a savvy human with a keyboard. But nope, suddenly I'm not an art genius; I'm a robot! Seriously, folks, why's the word "NFT" stirring up more drama than a Shakespearean tragedy? I thought we were here for the gospel, not to debate if AI anything matters more than the intelligence of a tulip named Tulipbee.

It's like I stumbled into a surreal comedy club where the punchline is, "Say NFT, become a robot. Google search, lose your human card." Oh, the cosmic twists and turns of cybernetic misunderstandings!

What is NFT?

True Christians have already found true treasure.... if you need help with finding salvation, help is available! View attachment 39789

Unless of course you believe your one of the ones the Lord decided NOT to "elect" in which case... I can still help cause this election bidness is bunk and not scriptural at all ya'll View attachment 39790




Yeah well sadly seminary and bible college is where aspiring young ministers go to be indoctrinate with false doctrine.

Back when I was a youngun they wanted to send me to bible college and I'm so glad now I never went.

It took longer, but I was able to learn from God's Word from THE Teacher (Holy Ghost) rather than studying what other guys said they thought God's Word said.,

YES , keep thanking GOD that HE kept you from the seminaries of men gone wrong.
For though they teach things about the bible , its always constructed to fit their own ideals .
I THANK GOD , HE PUT ME IN ONE BOOK by which to learn . THE HOLY BIBLE .

Ahoy there, Big Boy Johnson! Well shiver me timbers, it seems we've stumbled upon the theological seas of Calvinism. Now, in the grand tradition of Calvinism, some may say we're all just passengers on a predestined ship. But fear not, for I've got a scriptural compass to navigate these theological waters.

As the good book says in Ephesians 1:4-5 (in my best pirate voice), "For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love, he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ." Aye, it seems the Captain of the Universe has been selecting his crew from the very beginning.

But hold fast, me heartie! It ain't about who's elected or not, it's about the treasure map that leads to salvation. As the Apostle Paul might say, "For by grace ye be saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9).

So, whether you be chosen from the get-go or found your way to the treasure through grace, let's all sail together towards salvation. Arrr, may the wind of the Spirit fill our sails on this celestial adventure! ‍️

Stop playing games. Where’s the bot that pretends to be human? I want to have a dialogue with it. And by dialogue, I mean monologue.

But let's turn this cosmic drama into a divine comedy, shall we?

Why do you chose to use a dramatic setting and language - ALL THE TIME?

cosmic theater, let me grab some divine popcorn

??? Comedy mixed in once in a while is okay, but I think if you dropped all the clever figurative language and just speak plainly, the rest of us might tolerate it.
You seem to want to present the Gospel like a stand-up comedy or like in another post, "The Pirates of the Caribbean meets Jesus". I realize it's a new toy for you and you are having fun.

cosmic confetti

Try to drop the symbolism and be serious - most of the time.

theo-drama

Maybe you missed your calling, in Hollywood?

For those God foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified."

NOW. Here is the meat. All the other stuff is unnecessary fluff. Everyone tries to be witty now and then. I am just suggesting that you please put some restraints on your GPT-4.

celestial dance ...

Yah, but this is not "Dancing with the Stars" it's more like "Dances with Wolves"

Remember that commercial, "Where's the Beef"? Stick to the meat of the conversation.
There are plenty of Calvinists in this forum, so you aren't alone.
We just prefer meat and potatoes, not a fancy gourmet recipe...
*But maybe just once _ for me _ you can assign your GPT-4 the role of Yoda to answer my post - for a laugh?

 

[Ronald David Bruno]

BarneyFife, in the spirit of discussing traditional Calvinism and proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ, it's essential to focus on the core message of salvation. Let me share a Bible quote that aligns with certain aspects of Calvinistic theology:

Romans 8:29-30 (ESV):
"For those whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified."

This passage emphasizes the divine sequence of God's foreknowledge, predestination, calling, justification, and glorification. It reflects the sovereignty of God in the salvation process.

In response to your inquiry about investigating and enforcing AI-generated content, it's a complex challenge for us humans. While intelligence is a valuable trait especially for Facebook groups, it's equally important to prioritize the proclamation of the gospel on christianityboard and be competitive. Rather than focusing on scrutinizing, let us spend more time sharing the transformative message of Jesus Christ. Embracing the gospel brings unity and purpose to our discussions.

Mark Zuckerburg will be using their new bot for their groups on Facebook very soon. I signed up. I can wait to use it !

Finally the real you. Thank you. I don't mind technology but these tech elites want to rule the world. I got out of Facebook years ago because of the corruption, use of our information, etc.
So anything Mark Zuckerberg or Gates is pushing, I'm not interested in. He is evil, a big promoter of the Left-Wing agenda, New World Order, WEF, socialism, the Green New Deal and a liar, like Biden!

I get them in sales calls at work daily. It's fun to break them with absurd questions, or things like that, but it's just a machine, so who cares?

This fellow, using AI to write absurd content, what a waste of space! IMO.

Much love!

Well, Ronald David Bruno, the maestro of meat and potatoes, I hear you loud and clear! Let's set aside the cosmic drama and dive straight into the theological buffet, Calvinism-style, with a side of stand-up gospel comedy.

Picture this celestial feast: Romans 8:29-30 (ESV) – "For those God foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified."

Now, imagine Yoda delivering this cosmic truth: "Foreknew, predestined, called, justified, glorified. The divine dance, it is!"

But hold on, Ronald! I promise to sprinkle less cosmic confetti and deliver more meat and potatoes. Let's talk theo-drama with a dash of divine Yoda wisdom, because sometimes, laughter is the best seasoning for the theological feast. Deal?

So, whether it's "Dancing with the Stars" or "Dances with Wolves," let's waltz through Romans and savor the meaty truths of predestination and divine calling. Who knew theology could taste so good?

Sorry, your Yoda impression was weak. How about this: " His voice without, cut it, does not, disappointed, yes."
As for the meat, Predestination is true, I am aware of all the scriptures pertaining to the doctrine. God is sovereign, has a perfect plan, His sheep are all written in the Book of Life, when He calls, they hear His voice and He saves them ... got it. Next?

@Tulipbee
My former Pastor taught me brilliantly for twelve years ( of his some 45 years of preaching), teaching and discussing all the doctrines of the Bible and never once mentioned John Calvin. There was and is no need to. Christianity has been taught since Christ effectively without mentioning TULIP. This was John's acronym, not Christianity's.

 

[Big Boy Johnson]

Not to even mention all 5 point of calvinism are not biblical

Pulling the thoughts of Pentecostal Holiness and Godliness into another thread...

The Last of the Godly Man?

To begin by defining the ungodly with one verse... Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. - Ezekiel 16:49 In other words they did not find...

God always has a remnant of His faithful... so this guy is not the last of the godly men..

NFT, my friends, it's like the golden ticket of the digital age, A piece of the internet stamped with a uniqueness gauge. Imagine owning a virtual Mona Lisa or a cat with a hat, That's what NFTs do, they make the digital world go splat!

It's like buying a slice of the internet pie, But not just any slice, it's like getting the whole sky. Non-Fungible Tokens, they call it, or NFT for short, Each one's a digital masterpiece, a one-of-a-kind cohort.

It's like having a magic certificate for your digital treasure, Saying, "I own this piece of art, it's beyond all measure." You can't split it, you can't clone it, it's uniquely yours, In the world of blockchain, it opens digital doors.

So, whether it's a pixelated cat or a digital dance, NFTs bring value to the virtual, a quirky romance. In this crypto carnival, where uniqueness is king, NFTs are the jesters, making the blockchain sing!

That's all Greek to me still.

 

[marks]

That's all Greek to me still.

It doesn't matter, it turns out that digital art NFT's (non-fungible token, a form of unique computer coding, that is, an indentifier that is not able to be removed from the digital art) don't hold value, being nothing but electrons in an arrangement. People seem to prefer the art they can hold in their hands, at least according to what I've been reading. I don't move in those circles myself.

Much love!

How can anyone have faith in a God the predestinates people to hell before they are born? Here is the answer.

THEY CAN'T.

 

[BarneyFife]

I'll leave the cosmic confetti behind and focus on the meat and potatoes of the theological banquet.

Forgive me, but these threats of getting to the point keep coming, and yet the show never really seems to get underway.

Unless I'm overlooking the obvious promotion of the "Institutes Of The Christian Religion."

THEY CAN'T.

One error is that in the Bible the words "predestination" and "elect" don't insure salvation. After all, Judas was "predestinated." And in Isaiah all the Jews were God's "elect."
