Some protestants seem to believe you only need to have faith to be saved, so the criticism of this view is that it justifies sinning as much as people want as long as they simply have faith (or in essence, justifies “moral anarchy”)
Now according to some polls, a good majority of protestants seem to believe works are important for salvation (a view more traditionally associated with Catholics; I don’t know what the orthodox view is, if some orthodox can chime in or people knowledgeable about the issue) - so this does not reflect the belief of all protestants. In fact, in practice, there are even a lot of protestants it seems with this view, who believe that since they have faith that they want to do good “on the honor system” (and so they may do some good works anyway, even if they don’t believe them to be necessary to salvation).
But of those who do believe they can sin and it doesn’t matter… does anyone have any thought on the implications of this (heretical) view or how to encourage people away from this viewpoint?
Let’s take a trip on DMT. Welcome to the Dank Microwave Taco or DMT for short. Anything and everything goes in here. Be sure to share your experience on DMT with your friends, family and social media. @WiggleHard bans nothing and exiles nobody (Dont doxx wolfballs users, no posting of porn/nudes or foot fetish material unless it involves political scandals, no ads for sex sites or dating sites; do that on your own time, no solicitation for pyramid scams, no posting job advertisements unless from official job sites, no posts supporting pedophilia, not all love is love) also: (we cannot allow violations of the patriot act concerning how we speak, no calls for violence, suggesting you are personally harming someone ect. These things are not free speech protected by law but actually against the law and could get the website shut down.) (no spam posting, especially spam posting of what could be considered symbols of hate) examples: guy posting nazi flag 5 times in one day, guy posting “whitey is the devil over and over, im going to use my best judgement on this one rule)
This is out of my scope. I’m agnostic so I guess I really don’t have an Opinion On this
