Theology -- why does it exist.

 At large, theology is the exaltation of God. In Christianity, that means, talking about Jesus, how He came to be; how that coming is divine; how it fulfilled the scriptures, gathered before as Jews and how that leads us to the rupture, where we go to Heaven. Depending on the arteficial preferences of different denominations, such as claiming virgin Mary to be sinless from birth if you're Catholic or Sola scriptura, if you're protestant etc. different theologians highlight different topics and characters of faith, to have their points met. But in a way, that all doesn't really regard the main line of theology very well - namely, the exaltation of God.


It's not very helpful, then one side argues about the bread and wine turning to Christs body and blood, to be met with the other side arguing back, not wanting to be a Pagan and eat their God! According to 1Cor 8:1-13 about eating meat, what was offered to Idols -- if your insight allows you to regard bread and wine as God's body and blood, it should not kill those Christians, who can't suffer that... lest to make the service of God Idolatry! Both sides should get along, worshipping about Christ and his second coming, not about aspects what drive us apart. As said St. Peter, we should concern ourselves with prayers and not about our feasts!


That is theology, then you bring your garbage out without muttering and posing a lip, and without writing notes about your good deeds. Those, who have to selfie themselves, so people notice their good deeds, already have their reward met! Mat 6:1


That is theology, then you do whatever is necessary and worthy of Mankind, while not regarding your own value! Those kind of things exalt the Lord Jesus Christ.


Proving your opponent wrong, because he didn't know this book or that quote and teacher, does nothing to show your God as benevolent and Good. All people can do the same, and prove their product to be the Best, as stated in the famous joke about Guiness, there three CEO's order their brew and only the CEO orders Coca-Cola, for no real beer has not yet been served, and he wanted to be nice. All such legal disputes will end in the very same spot...


How does you, being a Christian, make your life better? Why should people give a fuck about it? Nobody likes a door-to-door salesman or a telephone Merchant -- even worse a market hound!! Market hounds are those insurance and bank salesmen, what await you at the mall, to bombard you when you enter or leave a supermarket. That practice should be illegal. So don't make it as vexing to others time and experience, as the mentioned examples.


If people ask you the shortest way from A to B you should not bother them with C; D or even H. People don't hate God, they hate certain people, serving that God, they met, just as I hate those hounds... ugh! Don't try to leech on people, to be their friend, just "to get them in". It's too Blood 1 butcher chanting "Join us" while acid goo oozes from his broken stomache... Churches don't go to Heaven, people go to Heaven. Jesus didn't say to the Catholic church or any other denomination, that on him he built his church, but to St.Peter - a Person - and your relationship with God should also be Personal and not Institutionalized, regardless of confession... To me all confessions are right and wrong at the same time, highlighting some points well others not so much. Don't be an Alp causing Nightmares to others about your faith; Creed; denomination! That person, who received such honors, also renounced Jesus thrice and almost drowned while trying to walk on water, because of shortcomings in faith! Your faith is the good days and the bad! There are no shortcuts...


All your life and expression, what you do; what you mean -- how you treat others, is the calling card of your God. Mistreating somebody, because he's not on the list or even worse on the black list doesn't make you fare betters. Many Christians don't go to Hell because they did horrendous crimes, but for failing to see Jesus in the next Witch or Harlot or Infidel they met, forgetting how they there on the hour of conversion and experiencing their own moral bankrupcy! Mat 18:21-35; 25:31-46 That is one of the reasons why I can't forgive the Democrats about their policies and impeachment on Trump. They claim to be morally superior, to know better - yet they resort to violence; false evidence; propaganda; slander over not being able to take him being a Republican; being more popular and having a loose tongue! Hitting the underdog gets you enemies not friends! It doesn't matter, that you think, that you fight a bully, then others see you fight an underdog!! Never ever claim more moral highground as you can vouch for... remember what happened to the sons of Sceva, who exorcised demons: "In  the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches!" Acts 19:13-16 Have your own insight of your faith, not through some other holy man!


All prophets and disciples of the Lord have been transgressors, who admitted and accepted their fate. How say you!
