Ah yes, I can see why you are asking that. We are taught both that we should confess both big and little sins. (Which we call Mortal and Venial sins) but if you have Eucharist with venial sins on your soul all those venial sins are forgiven.

Good to know, thanks!

Yeah, that was a lot so I am unsure what to respond to first 😅 when…

Hi Kefa (just realized I haven’t said anything on your WIP page yet, still need to do that)

What are your thoughts on catholic reconciliation? (For those who don’t know, reconciliation is where catholics go (supposed to be at least every month) to confess their sins. And then they are forgiven for them.) And what questions do y…

@the_lost-journal

oop, uhh, I will make a topic for it!!!!!!!!!

Sounds good😂

Nice, because I know other denominations just forgive to one another… 😬 that sounds worse.

And of course, we should reconcile ourselves with our fellow man, especially those we have wronged, but man cannot forgive sin, only God, and by extension those He’s given a…[Read more]

*Steals your questions*

Please do, Most Esteemed Feathered One. Your abducktion of my questions is an honor.

I would say you can tell if someone is a true Christian by whether they believe the Bible, and how they treat others.

I think that’s a good answer, though what if someone says they believe the Bible, and treat those around…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

Ah, hello intelligent being! And I would love to tell you all about my fantasy book I am writing!

Great! If you could point me to where you talk about it, that would be awesome:)

I feel I can be that way too…

Luckily we have the Atonement, so that we can progress and become perfected through Christ

Oh, that makes more sense, is i…

Hello! It is even more nice to meet you!!!! Also, let me introduce myself! I am The lost journal (something from my main WIP) Also know as my real name Kefa, or my split personality, which is the magic potato!

Tis a pleasure, Pot…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

Hi Freedom! I am intrigued. have you developed how these different arcs blend into the overall story? What’s the worldbuilding you’ve done like so far?

@the_lost-journal

This place looks cool, not sure if we’ve met, I haven’t been active lately, nice to meet you!

1. My denomination is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

2. I grew up in my faith, and will always be growing up in it on a path of continual conversion

3. Formally speaking there are the four standard works which…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Nah, you’re just that predictable. No offense, if our roles were reversed and you came to me with a Bad Batch or Team Fortress fanfic idea, I’d react pretty much the exact same way.

Lol, fair enough

The original crossover was posited as occurring 1-2 generations after Korra’s time, I believe, and I think I’m gonna stick with that for my…

Perfect reason to venture out of KP hibernation. 👌

@keilah-h

AHAHAHA how did I know you were gonna do that?

Either you have a connection to supernatural powers, or I’m just very predictable

yeah just little things like that. Not too big of a deal to like not touch the fandom at all, but large enough that I can’t just ignore it. F…

-Me, breaks through the ceiling falling before you

I am here

I’m iffy on the show itself. I don’t need another fixation. There are a couple issues I’d like to avoid with the mythology of it all.

Always fair, however, I will say that you are s…[Read more]

@hybridlore @theshadow

Thank you for sharing that experience Hybrid, though I haven’t necessarily dealt with these same trials, I do know pain and doubt. I don’t want to force myself into this conversation, but I just wanted to say that God is aware of you both, and He wants to end your suffering, but there is a plan in all things. Anxiety is…[Read more]

@theshadow

Well, people who choose to live apart from God on earth are kind of living a personal hell, right?

Right, it’s self-inflicted. It’s choosing to be something lesser than you could be, which leads to sorrow.

How can someone get to the point where having the ultimate good would be worse for them than hell?

Because of who they chose to be.…[Read more]

@theshadow

That is true, he did have that point in between after the betrayal and before his death to repent. I guess we’ll never really know for sure why God allows us to go to hell. After all, as Judith said in her book, not even humans can a know for sure what is on other humans hearts, let alone the God of the Universes’ mind. Maybe people tha…

Love this movement, protect Adolin! I’m on the final stretch of Rhythm, and I’m not worried about it, but you really never know with Sanderson, he’s really good at things like that. He’s killed favorite characters before, but it’s generally still fulfilling when he does, like with LightSong.

@theshadow

It doesn’t make sense really, after all these people are the ones facing hardships daily, wouldn’t it make the most sense to turn on whatever religion and god they believe in?

Very true, this is something we see repeatedly. Those who go through the worst in life often end up being the most drawn towards God. Part of it is because the…[Read more]

@theshadow

Why not just let us live in communion with Him in ignorance? I’m probably 100% wrong about this, but I think living in ignorance would be better than many actively rejecting God and being separated from Him.

I’ll give my best classical response, then my personally preferred answer.

Essentially as you’ve already said, there is victory a…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Being forced to be active on KP and make progress on my writing? I can’t tell if I should be mad or grateful, lol!

@theshadow

Hi Shadow (and everyone else, I haven’t been on for like a year at this point).

So when it comes to my personal faith, the answer I give would be similar to what other’s have already said here, that it was essentially that God gave Satan free will. If God only gave the capacity to do good, then what is the value of that? In my eyes,…[Read more]

@theshadow

I can go into a lot of depth on this topic, but since I’m busy, I’ll just say this. More often than not, the best answer to this exact question is another question: Is it good? If it’s good, do it, who cares if it’s from the Holy Spirit. All good things come from God don’t they? Also, as Christ says, by their fruits you shall know…[Read more]
