Because they don't have a relationship with Jesus Christ and God the Father.
Most of the local protestant and Baptist church near me are vaxxed, and its probably all of them, since the leaders of those churches are promoting the vaccine.
Most of the big-box churches sold out long ago. Sad but true.
Those who are vaccinated make it plainly evident that they have more faith in man than they do their Creator. Some have been coerced into vaccinations through fear of losing their job, as well as, an unbearable amount of peer pressure.
When you think about it, a church's teaching is merely going to be an interpretation of the Bible. How is that any different from the media who routinely peddles biased opinions at best, and outright lies at worst?
Christianity is the product of the believers, not the bible, not the church, but how the believer perceives things, it is their minds that provides the filter lenses that shapes their beliefs, Christians make their own Christianity.
The Bible says that government leaders were appointed by God and should be obeyed. They’re pretty much completely fucked.
It goes a little deeper than that I think. Dont quote me but I think, "unless it goes against God" type of thing. Been awhile since ive studied. Im thinkin this goes against God. In first or second Timothy it says "study the word" sumthin sumthin.. kinda like snake handling churches dont realize "serpent" translates to "evil one" etc. Never "snake"
I was referencing Romans 13:1, but whatever it says it does seem to run contrary to the teachings of Jesus. It’s almost as though the content of the Bible has been tampered with over the centuries...
The obedience of Christians to their leaders isn't exclusive. There are many instances in the Bible where believers have refused orders of kings and magistrates due to the conflict of their obedience to God's commands. I suggest and excellent book called 'Vindiciae Contra Tyrannos' by Junius Brutus. It sums up a Christians' duty of obedience to established leaders and God and where they conflict each other according to the Word of God.
Which passage? I'm interested
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
Romans 13:1, NIV
Lol have you even glanced at the Bible? It's filled with people who rebelled. You're taking one verse out of context to paint an entire book, religion and culture. Fuck off, faggot.
Evangelical Christians still recite and obey that Bible verse, dumbshit.
