Abrahamic Jedi Sign In

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 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).

Sign in?

i will go i do not attend church but i belong to one and practice

I did not know that about you! What kind of practice do you have?

you did not know because you did not ask lol

I'm interested, but just curious how you intend to incorporate your "Red Letter Christianity" into Abrahamic religions as a whole especially in the light of Jedi syncretism. 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

The red letters hold very strong influence on me, though much of my old faith is gone. I now associate closer to Buddhism.

I have not attended church in many years and take issue with certain parts of the Bible and some groups tendency to take it literally, but I was raised Baptist and still, to a degree, hold on to the idea of there being a God. Also I just find the idea of a more in depth Jedi look at the Bible to be an interesting idea. Kind of like tzb's Jedi Reading of the Tao Te Ching.

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).

This always gets my attention.... Personally I dislike the context wording of "Red Letter Christianity". I understand it's meaning and have dealt with it on a personal level when it comes to the View of only Jesus's teachings.


As for Connor L.'s item....

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....

The Rite was never intended to be one view or another, but a joined group of Thought.....
