Music: The first song is the music for Psalm 36 of the Genevan Psalter by Claude Goudimel. The lyrics to that can be found here: genevanpsalter.com/music-and-... The rest of the music is written by me.
Love your content, your passion for Christ, and your dedication to Christian Orthodoxy. I'm a relatively recent convert to Christianity / Catholicism, was baptized in 2021. For all my research and study about the views of justification between Reformed vs Catholic, it really does seem to me that most of the time we're saying sorta the same things, just with slightly different understandings and senses of specific words. As far as I understand, we are saved by grace through faith; and not a dead faith, but one that has produced fruit worthy of repentance. It seems to me the primary controversy is that of authority; Sola Scriptura vs Papacy. You seem much younger than myself, but you're clearly intelligent and thoughtful, blessed by God and called to do his good works which he has prepared for you since before you were born. Sometimes it seems like there are so few orthodox Christians, especially among the younger folks. Thank you for what you do, and your chill videos are always a pleasure to watch.
Great channel, been following you for about a month now I think, and you've got very informative videos. I was raised as an independent Baptist myself, but other Christians (namely online Catholics, but also my dad, who has converted to Anglicanism in the past few years) convinced me to return to my faith, so I've been trying to keep my ears open to learn more about other traditions and historical theology.
I've been enjoying the backlog. I hope it's not weird being an older viewer (31) but it's very nice to see guys who are exploring and discussing the faith at the same age I was when I began to question and take my faith seriously in college. Let me say with my little bit of extra life experience, stay as close to Christ as you can. Even though other paths may seem flashier and more fun at times, you'll be happier and God will bless your life in ways you couldn't imagine.
Honestly I've started bench watching your whole series, which has really helped me with my faith. You, Treasure Christ,fight for Truth, and the daily Disciple have really helped me with my faith. And I've been thinking it would be crazy if you 4 did a Colab video together. Just a fun thought Godspeed
Im baptist and our small church has been around for 150+ years. There are stories about an exorcism that happened at our church. It would have been when I was a child and I am 40.
Can't lie I l truly respect and admire reformed theology. I myself iam a young conservative charismatic in the UK and randomly stumbled upon you video where you spoke out the heritage churches being taken over by liberal theology. And it's was so true especially here in the UK any old building church in the town center are so liberal it's about of joke to call them churches at all. There are things In my theology I don't agree with but it's more about application of certain scriptures.
I agree with the sentiment of we shouldn't try to be as anti-catholic as possible. In a similar fashion, I think the early church may have gone a little wrong in trying to be as anti-jewish as possible. Obviously that wasn't how they started, but whereas they both had the same sabbath and even same buildings for worship in the beginning, obviously something had to change. But, did they really need to move the sabbath day from what God initiated at creation? I think we have freedom, as the church, to do so, and the sabbath was made for us, but in general I would've been strongly against the idea. Long time down the road, and I definitely think unity trumps personal idealism. Paul mentioned being all things to all people so that by all means he might save some. I think there's a lot of freedom to be had. It shouldn't be something that divides us.
There are some Christmas traditions that are pretty non-Catholic in addition to being non-Christian. You may have heard of the tradition of "Wassailing" in an old carol (which makes it all sound like jolly fun), but it pays to recall that it's basically roving gangs of rowdy young men doing something like "trick-or-treating" for beer.
When you open your server I'm going to open a non-denominational (Baptist) church (warehouse) across from your big weird building with weird crosses in it (the service isn't spiritual enough).
dude you gotta post links for the background music you use in your videos it's seriously epic (love your content btw as a fellow zoomer who has been redeemed)
