Abrahamic Jedi Sign In
I was curious to know who here (currently, active) is a practicing (not just attending) member of an Abrahamic community of faith? Judaism, Satanism, Quakerism, Christianity, etc. I'm putting together a Bible study for the Christian Jedi group, but I am wondering what the interest here might be to post it for discussion (there's no teachings, just Biblical quotations with some commentary and resources and then discussion).

As I understand it, "Red Letter Christianity" only sees the words of Jesus as doctrine, which tends to speciate it from many other Abrahamic offshoots (particularly satanism, which I in practice have seen as very heavily pagan-influenced). My curiousity is piqued regardless
Yes, I believe that only the words of Jesus are necessary. (for my life, anyway). However, I do take some inspiration from the rest of the bible and other beliefs. I find that most of what else is written in the bible is NOT timeless (so doesn't appeal to the context of modern life) and is NOT to be trusted (mostly Paul).

As for Connor L.'s item....
Recently (as in the past 6 months) I have found myself returning to my original religious affiliation as a Christian. Nowadays, I view myself as a Red Letter Christian in a sense. Beside the point for the moment.

I have to stop this here.... If one wants to have a Bible Study Group is one thing, something maybe in a Chat etc... But I will take the idea to the council for review as to how it should go..... We've been down this road years ago with a great backfire....
