What do you think that Jesus would think of Church? In general - not just Catholic or Protestant. Do you think Christianity as a whole lives up to His ideals?

Is the Pope a figurehead worth following in this day and age?

You know why you can't get into heaven simply because of good deeds on the scale?

Answers like that. It's never your fault.

Only until you prostrate yourself to the Lord and work to serve him for his sacrifice - rather then pitifully for some reward - can you truly do good in this world. When you do good deeds for a reward - rather than through faith - it can become quickly selfish and self serving. Similar to flying a private jet but not using plastic straws. But many do not have the life experience to understand this. I'd be surprised if you do.

What would Jesus think? I think he'd want you to be unconcerned with his thoughts, but to do as much good in his name, and try your best to limit your sins.

You misunderstand me.

When did Jesus ask this? He asked only for our belief. And indeed, if he thought this way why did he let John baptize Him? What are your thoughts on this, btw?

Why wouldn't he want me to try to identify with His thoughts?

If Jesus chose to hideously mutilate and sexually abuse children out in public, you should not Question the Wisdom behind His actions, but rather ruminate upon your own actions and prostrate yourself before your Lord. It is pure ego and folly to believe that you may even discern the Lord's plan for you and this world for yourself.

Limit your sins, serve well and accept HIM into your heart.

What is pure ego?

Pure Ego is to Question the Wisdom and Will that has existed since time immemorial. What makes you think you're capable of questioning the actions of God when you haven't even lived for a fraction of the time He has? It took God seven days to create the world, and yet you believe you can refute thousands of years of Theosophy and His Teachings. Go ahead. What problems do you see with the Will and His Law? Thousands before you have scorned him and say "God am I." and have been cast down to the Prison of Satan. It's just how it is.

You think yourself pure, righteous man?

I do not think at all. I know my lot and know my prayer. You question too much and ask too much from God. Life is suffering and he came to us to show us how to suffer well.

If you can't accept this, then you do not know God.

God gave us the divine ability to question, not questioning would be equivocal to spitting in the Lord's face.

Neighbor if you want scripture drops go to church I work in IT

>why wouldn't he want me to try to identify with his thoughts

The bible is supposed to be that. If you pray and have faith you will eventually find answers, though not as quickly as you think

Asking for God's opinion on society at any point in creation and asking for anything other then "darnation" is selfish in itself. This isn't your supervisor giving you biyearly reviews, it's.fricking God,.and we are sinful.

Shouldn't you be able to defend your ideas?

And what do you think Jesus himself thought of that? You're Christian, what did Christ think? Not your church?

I literally told you what I thought God would say/think and you still ask that question.

And at the end of the day, I don't really care what you think and I'm not trying to convince you of anything. If you want these answers, go to church.

To clarify, are you asking where did Jesus ask you to prostrate before him?
