Hint: the bible and the miracles of Jesus are also a lie. Good job on doing some reflection tho. I'm also curious, why you expect ppl to tell you "you just found the wrong church" ?... On the internet i would expect to be barraded by atheist (sry english is not my first language)

Wow, young lady….YOU are amazing!!! You are so intelligent. Im so glad you are realizing and seeing this so early in your life. My belief as a Christian is that we are to have a RELATIONSHIP with our Lord and Savior. And that we do not have to have Religion. Organized religion can get out of control so fast. The power, the money, it’s too much for a small organization to handle. Don’t get me wrong, I do believe there are some good churches out t there. But unfortunately they are dwindling. Always listen to your gut and your heart. That is your inner self and Jesus speaking to you.❤❤❤

Oh gosh, there are other expressions of Christianity than Evangelicalism.

Thank you for your video! I can totally relate to you, although it took me longer to get out and deconstruct. I grew up in a fundamentalist Baptist church (Baptisten-Brüdergemeinde in Germany) and also wanted to do the no sex before marriage thing initially. So happy to no longer have to force myself to believe things I just don’t believe, such as that me being queer is wrong or women have to be submissive to men. So many things just always felt wrong to me (f.e. child abuse and marital rape being justified by the bible) and I am so happy to see the cult and it’s fucked up theology as what it is. I uploaded a video on my channel in case anyone reading this is interested.

7:47 congratulations on leaving the Baptist Church im almost 52 years young and I grew up missionary Baptist and then joined the independent Baptist and you are hitting home on what you are talking about and I grew up in a predominantly black Baptist because my father grew up Baptist and my mother grew up Pentecostal they have not been in church in a long time yes Baptist are KJV only im glad my family never wanted a religious Life style my mom love vampire movies so do I. I want to share your video because there no ex baptist community this is my second time leaving the Baptist Church and the pandemic helped my children and grandchildren are not church goers 13:47

I’m so glad you’re figuring this out early. Congratulations! Many people never do. I was a Christian until I finally figured out the truth when I was about 48. (Born into it) I was so beaten down and depressed from trying to make God work in my life. I spent years reading through the Bible from cover to cover over and over again studying it and praying throughout the day. I was self brainwashing anytime I was awake. I finally removed my religious chains and my deconstructing will be for the rest of my life. Now I experience real emotions both sad, happy and everything in between. I feel genuine feelings and now I actually care about other people. I don’t judge them because I realize I am them. I was stunted as a person when I was a Christian both emotionally and intellectually. If anyone is sitting on the fence, I recommend science based reality. I struggle a lot but now I have eliminated the biggest struggle in my life. I’m much happier overall. I’m not dead inside anymore.

And sex before merriage is demonic being gay is demonic and explicitely abominable it is hatred for Gods design for the human body the male sex organ is not meant to enter a hole that is made for excrement to come out of it there is no escape from this truth i do agree with your statements about the bible Translations I'm very sorry for what you must have experienced in this independent fundamental Baptist background that you come from. But just because they are absolutely insane in their doctrines about so-called blasphemy. Does not mean that they are not correct about some things. Humans are sinners, all humans. That being said, Jesus spoke clearly when he said. Every blast for me and sin will be forgiven. Accept the blast for me against the Holy Spirit. But having different Bible translations is not blast. For me, it is a necessity for all humans on this planet to hear the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. So I understand your contention with that but there are certain things that the scriptures are clear on. And I just pray that you hear me when I tell you and remind you that we are not to be conformed to the pattern of this world. This world hates God and hates Jesus. And there is no neutrality. People are not in between. I'm just okay with God. No, you are either for God or against him. Jesus says this clearly as well. With regards to the sexual things. You mentioned the word of God is explicit and clear. These things are abominable. All sins can be forgiven, man must repent. And believe the gospel of jesus christ

Please forgive the poor composition of that message. I often use speech to text and for some reason. This new phone I got decides to put question marks in places where it's not a question but a statement LOL.

This is in no way meant to be a Harsh rebuke against you. The rather I just hope what I'm saying is helpful. In some way, the Southern Baptist denomination can be rather foolish at times with some of their strange doctrines that go beyond scripture. That being said, there is a truth rooted at the bottom of their beliefs that they may have strayed from. One of these truths is that the problem with sex before marriage is that if the couple is not in a covenant with 1 another, there is no. Accountability to them to stay together and honor God. With his image for what a relationship between a man and a woman should be. It's been scientifically proven bisecular scholars. That when a man and a woman have sex, the man's dna melds with her for the rest of her life. This is because God has designed us to have one partner. With regards to losing your salvation as a consequence of fornication. This is a false doctrine. The Bible explicitly teaches that if someone is in Christ, they can never lose their salvation in the life that has been granted them by the grace of God. However, God will not hesitate to discipline. Those who do belong to him as it is written." If you are without discipline, you are not sons. Or daughters, but you are illegitimate." Now with this in mind, though it's made clear in the epistles. That we should not take advantage of the grace that God gives us. As it is written, "all things are permissible for me. But not all things are beneficial." There's great danger in fornication and sexually morality. As a Christian, the danger is the discipline that might come upon. You for disobeying the father. But ultimately you'll be okay and your face will remain. You will still have fellowship with the lord But ultimately you'll be okay and your face will remain. You will still have fellowship with the Lord. Despite the judgment that may come upon you from fellow believers. As it is written "if anyone comes to me. I will never cast him out." As far as dating, it's true, it's unbiblical. It's not God's design for man and woman. Man and women left to themselves only do evil. We must be careful. We must not only protect ourselves but protect each other from temptation. And gently rebuke one another and guide each other in the right direction But the Bible is the truth. Is the only objective truth and moral standard? We have on this Earth. Everything else is a lie. If it contradicts with the word of God so we cannot be surprised when brothers and sisters of the faith contradict or misunderstand certain doctrines, but rather turned to the scripture. And be patient with brothers and sisters who do not understand things properly. Or push certain doctrines too hard.

When you say they are all not right for you (the different denominations), in what way? BTW I applaud the fact that you are thinking deeply about these things and working out what you believe. I think truth seeking is such an important thing and a lot of people just try to avoid the truth and self delude themselves so they can "enjoy life".

I don't know what kind of Baptist church you were going to but the one I went to in Australia did not consider reading the Message bible to be blasphemy. Nor did any of the other Christian denominations that I have attended over the years. After all the guy who did it was a pastor. "The Message is a reading Bible translated from the original Greek and Hebrew Scriptures by scholar, pastor, author, and poet Eugene Peterson. Thoroughly reviewed and approved by 20 biblical scholars" I personally sometimes read this Bible and sometimes compare it with other versions. It's just the same meaning but in a more modern style as it sounds like you are aware of. I quite like it, other versions use a lot of old fashioned terms that aren't used in our everyday life so sometimes make simple ideas seem complicated. I was first given a copy of the Message Bible by a pastor of a Church who has been a pastor in various denominations, (Anglican, Presbyterian and Charismatic churches). He has studied Greek and Hebrew and has no problem with the Message Bible. Personally I do think that there are certain verses that aren't quite as deep and detailed but the same core meaning is still there.

hey Audrey! im so sorry to hear about how the baptist church hurt you. as I was growing up I also wrestled with similar concerns within the Bible and my church, but ultimately I came to ultimately find peace in the gospel -- not a rigid structure of rules and regulations needed to guarantee my faith. After all, God says we are saved by our faith, not by our works that no one can boast (ephesians 2:8-9). this doesn't make what the Bible says about certain things unimportant, but it should never be what we base our faith on. in a broken and painful world, Jesus endured the most unimaginable suffering all for us. to understand us. to know us. to become like one of us. He is lovely. He is beautiful. He is flawless, sinless, and perfectly righteous. He will never seek to do us harm. in my personal response of gratitude...all I want to do is desperately become more like Him. I heard you say you wanted to try reading other versions of the Bible...I just wanted to recommend an esv or niv Bible (im 18 and find them so much easier to read and understand). If you ever want someone to read it with, someone to tackle tough questions with, or anything else I am here !! I know this is just a comment, but I promise I'm real person behind the screen :). Jesus loves you SO much girl <3

This is great! I grew up going to conservative Baptist churchs and I’ve recently started deconstructing what I was taught my whole life. Thank you for sharing!

YES! And faith shouldn't be this nutty and difficult. Listening to you reminds me a bit of where my journey began when I was 30. Coming from someone old enough to be your grandparent now, pleased do a UA-cam search for Sr. Miriam James Heidland, and then just peacefully sit back and listen to her heart. May God bless you with what He know that you need as you go about your day..

Congratulations on leaving the baptist church!

Your a terrible example as what a Christian women should be.. Your just one who wants to wonder in the world.. but each his own i guess..

Good luck on your journey miss. Just take it slow. You're young and clearly smart. You got this

Keep going your gona be famous
