Modern Christianity out here speedrunning the Book of Revelation while skipping the Sermon on the Mount like it’s optional fine print.
Once upon a time, Christians were known for sneaking bread into prisons, healing strangers, and giving away their last cloak with a “God bless you” and no tax receipt. Now, some would rather audit the poor than aid them. The only loaves they multiply are stock options, and the only healing they offer is “thoughts and prayers,” usually after cutting someone’s Medicaid.
Rev. Cremer’s pointing out the real miracle: that in the early centuries, the church actually resembled Jesus. Wild, I know.
What made Christianity magnetic wasn’t doctrine, dogma, or a doomsday countdown clock—it was a radical, scandalous generosity that made emperors nervous. Now, we’ve traded that for culture wars and premium parking spots at megachurches.
It's not the Good News if it only sounds good to shareholders.
Time to resurrect the revolution—not with swords, but with soup kitchens, sanctuary, and stubborn love.
Your last quotation from Jesus is one which runs through my mind every time I am exposed to cold, merciless, judgmental people who somehow profess to be Christian. As a child, my daily religious instruction focused on the New Testament. It focused on the acts and words of a man who emphasized loving everyone and treating everyone with respect, kindness, acceptance, compassion, and mercy. Jesus gave his attention to the people who were sick, poor, or marginalized for some other reason. If he were here today, he would do the same and would be accused of being too liberal, "woke", et cetera and he would be disparaged by the so-called "Christians" in the US who appear to have skipped the New Testament so they could memorize the Book of Leviticus.
Such and interesting passage from Emperor Julian’s letter. I hasn’t come across that before. Got an old youth fellowship chorus playing in my mind, “and they’ll know we are Christians by our love”.
What if I told you that Zionism was baked in the American creed..Albert Pike wrote in his book Morals and Dogma that the god of masonry was Lucifer and he also said that masonry comes from the Jewish Kabbalah or Jewish mysticism..Now remember that George Washington was a mason and dedicated the US government and their buildings to their god Lucifer..And to show that the work was done he was deified in the Capital Dome.Just another tidbit from the dark side Albert Pike wrote whenever a hero is needed masonry will provide it..We are spirits in the material realm Y’all and there is no freedom in the material realm that doesn’t come from the material realm..The dark side understands this very basic spiritual truth and have used it to their advantage against humanity.. Hence putting on the full armor of God the God of Creation..Kick your little g gods to the curb and remember who and what we are 🙏
