Is that so? And you are a perfect beacon of light?
Significant personal growth often requires going through difficult or dark experiences. One must go through hell to get to heaven.
This is similar to the idea that a tree must send its roots deep — even into challenging or dark places — in order to grow tall and strong.
All roads ultimately lead to the same place. Whether a person follows a conventional path or takes what appears to be an evil or unconventional one, such as methods associated with Crowley, the underlying aim can be to drop the false self and discover the true self. Different routes may be taken, but they can lead to the same destination of honest self-discovery
For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again
So ive read a bit, its not about going to hell to have roots there and its not about all roads lead to Rome. Some roads are distractions. And everyone has free will and you are free to roam to hell if you think its worth. Im not going there, you go there it leaves scars on you. Im avoiding it. The rest you can read on my reply to the mod. And no im not perfect or better than God. I will keep judging the things of this world to point out what is good and what is not. You judge an apple after you bite, if its rancid you dont eat it. Judgement is a part of logic thinking and the world is this degenerate because people call hell heaven and call evil good.
Forgive the ai response. It's pretty close to what I'd respond if I had more time.
Discernment: The ability to perceive, recognize, or distinguish subtle differences, nuances, or truth from falsehood. It emphasizes insight, clarity, and wisdom—seeing things as they really are without being clouded by bias, emotion, or haste.
It's more about perception and understanding (the "seeing" part).
Judgment: The act of forming an opinion, making a decision, or evaluating something/someone as good/bad, right/wrong, better/worse. It often involves conclusion or verdict.
It can carry a negative connotation (e.g., being "judgmental" = harshly critical), but in a neutral sense it's simply decision-making or assessment
Basically discernment is just seeing the thing for what is and the other is having some sort of thought/feeling about it... Pretty much irrational.
Can you point out to me what was the personal attack? Is it the beacon of light question?
If so, I would say we are to reflect the beacon of light and tho we don't do it perfectly due to being on this side of glory, some shaky light is better than no light when surrounded by darkness. The beacon gets brighter the closer we get to it and the greater we'll shine for it. Keep on shining dude.
Good reply bro. Its my personal dilemn right now, like a candle cant be hidden, i've always wondered what does that mean because even Jesus told sometimes to keep things hidden. But if we silent, the darkness steps over the world. I never said im better than anyone and God will judge even Alister Crowley, not me. But imo, we have to judge, if we dont judge, we are bound to repeat same mistakes from the past. All ive said is my point of view about calling evil good, good evil, and saying lust is god (its not, its a sin). I dont believe so much in James from the Bible, i think he got a wrong view and he is too harsh. The point about being saved by faith or works. To me we are saved by Grace of God. Not works, and should not boast. We are all searching for the truth and trying to not believe in antichrist or false prophets (aint no prophets after Jesus). We are light but we have a flesh to tame, kind like yin and yang, a sinful nature (pride, wrath, greed, lust, sloth, etc.
About the dude, he started with irony and im at work. If he was more gentle and kind i could read what he wrote but nah, i dont find his personal irony helfpul at all. Ofc im not Jesus, no one is capable of sitting at the right of God, no one could endure what Jesus endured. Technically we could, but our faith is not so big like the Master. About worshipping Crowley, he is a false idol. Not taking out his contribution and research on occultism, but the fact is that he got insane doing it and degeneracy and lust are one pillar of the destruction of society that is going on.

A candle is a tool for seeing in the dark, what purpose does it have being hidden?
Jesus said to be harmless as doves but wise as serpents.
I think this means to know when to strike the heart of things while having love in our hearts for those lost and speaking life instead of death.
But imo, we have to judge, if we dont judge, we are bound to repeat same mistakes from the past.
Yes, we judge with God given discernment and lean on His understanding and not our own.
How do we discern the heart of God?
I think we just have to ask for Him to break our heart for what breaks His.
To me we are saved by Grace of God. Not works, and should not boast.
We are indeed saved by Grace through Faith. From a grateful heart springs the fruit of His Spirit, which is never not working.
(Edit: we boast in the Lord and His work!)
aint no prophets after Jesus
How do you reconcile this against His saying He will pour out His Spirit and men and women will prophesy?

You confuse discernment with judgement. Your conclusions are both illogical and false.
Hope you don't mind my jumping in.
What is the difference between discernment and judgement?

Oh so you start with personal attacks? Not even reading further. Blocked and bye.

Lol asking a question is a personal attack... I guess that answered the question though...
Shine on, you crazy diamond :)
It was a misunderstanding.
I'm not sure that was the case and if this is a misunderstanding, I'll let you know when I know.
