Psalm 2:6-12 and Luke 19:27 in context this would mean to set up a kingdom of God's people which could justify murder, the problem is traditionally catholicism and the same would be with orthodox christianity is that church tradition are just as important as the bible. So looking at the history Christianity would not encourage violence but they could use it to get the dominant cultural status. Which it is known for in middle ages.
I was actually just considering to just not believe it at all because i had moral problems with it that even if i lived in those times i could just not bring myself to such a thing. I am more of a discussing type of person.
In either case protestantism which is not that old is more on reformation of Christianity, so its easy to just reinterpret the meanings because it doesnt believe in the historical value of Christianity as the traditional ones do, so i could just say it means "Its what happens when all will be put before judgement after death" or "it means Christianity as in god's words will be what triumps over the pagan views of truth"
In either case the reason i must believe is because 1: I have fear of death. 2: Its comforting to think of an idea to see the loved ones after i i die.
In either case my goal is to try to be good and just do my best in general since i feel life has a purpose that way.
But let me know what you think?
Btw i dont hate catholics or orthodox christians or anything. It just wasn't for me.
Well, let's consider this:
The Jewish God Jehovah sent his Jewish son, born of a Jewish mother, in fulfillment of Jewish law and Jewish prophecy to preach a stricter version of Judaism than the Jewish leaders of the time were conducting, with his 12 Jewish disciples to the Jews.
And you want to be a Protestant.
Hmmm . . . . . .
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
