Mar 23, 2022 23:51

In light of the upcoming Hillsong documentary and my own experiences with living in a Fundamental Christian/Born-Again household until I was in my 30s (when I escaped--I’m not even lying about that), I thought you fine people of ONTD might enjoy reading through some of the fuckery from so called preachers of the Word of God that have hit the ( Read more... )

Saw your comment asking for formatting help, and considered replying, but then was too lazy. Now I feel bad ;_;
Thanks for your work, OP! I'll dive in now and already look forward to the next chapters! (Feel free to hit me up if you need support with those.)

Yes and no - I was talking to a woman who's an academic and of pentecostal faith, and she talked about how she's critical of the gender stuff there. That emboldened me to throw this exact thought out there, that the Bible was written down by human men who might have specific goals in mind, and she shut me down by saying that no, it's God's word, God guided the writing process. So... It's hard to argue if that's the belief the other person is working with.

Doing the lawd’s work with this post, OP!

I too grew up in a born again, baptist household. Your final thought is the epitome of what everyone should take away from captivity.
