That's a mighty fine cake!
Speaking of religion, I am an "agnostic" (though I'm sure some would like to disagree on whether that term is logical or not) and, as a queer person myself, I question why in christianity God dislikes the concept of homosexuality! I just want to be given a concrete answer of why this is the case, but the christians I have asked just… don't got a concrete one.
This is how you become a person that you're proud of living in honesty questioning everything gains you perspective and knowledge religion can be harmful to self image and sense of self asking those questions can break a curse of following the herd of being a sheep and that freedom brings contentment wherever you're at in your journey is valid but be true to yourself love everyone reading this💓💓
I want……lol
Your parents are to blame for that indoctrination. Idc what they went through, they did that to you:
'homosexuality is a sin' is not a core tenet of christianity. it is a mistranslation of one version of one passage of the bible that is abused to no end by bigots who happen to be christians. (i know you mean well but!)
Jesus loves you and those ppl who called you a problem aren't from the kingdom of God.
As someone who is religious, nothing boils my blood more people forming cults under the name Christianity and hurting real people + Actual Christianity
I hate hearing the things you listed as core tenants of the religion, because I know there are churches out there that are like that but that is such a damaging version of religion. For those out there who grew up in high control conservative Christianity, please just know that those are not the core tenants of Christianity historically. Nor are they the core tenants of the religion today for all. There are just as many churches that promote critical thinking, protecting the vulnerable, and radical love of your neighbor. The 1800s evangelical movement has absolutely screwed over generations of people in the name of of Christianity that only brings oppression and pain and looks nothing like what Jesus taught. Wishing you well on your life journey of healing from that pain that your religion brought on you.
I love divas like you
As a Christian woman I’m so sorry about how you’ve been treated by the church. What happened to you was not biblical and grieves the heart of God. Biblical submission is not “do what I say because I said so.” It’s about following your husband as He follows Christ. Submit to your husband AS HE IS SUBMITTED TO CHRIST. If he is not following or submitted to Christ, we as devoted Christian women cannot follow him. What people leave out of that scripture about submission is the part LITERALLY 2 VERSES LATER where he says “husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church.” Jesus DIED for his church even when we didn’t deserve it. He took our punishment for us so that we could live. He never lords his position over us to say “I’m Jesus so you have to do what I say.” He says “I took your punishment for you because THATS how much I love you.” And that amount of love is supposed to lead us to repentance and proper living, right relationship with each other and with God. But when we don’t have a proper understanding of Jesus’s love for us, we can’t ever do that so his “love” feels domineering especially when it’s improperly taught. Also, Christian marriage has NOTHING to do with a woman staying at home and having kids. Proverbs 31 clearly talks about all of the WORK that a godly woman does to a reward her household. This includes making things with her hands, BUYING LAND AND PROPERTY, taking care of people in her community, teaching others, the list goes on. We superimpose our own patriarchal systems onto the Bible and use scripture to justify it, which is heretical. The Bible says that in the kingdom of god there is no Jew or gentile, male or female, slave or free. We are ALL EQUAL in the kingdom of god. Amazing recipe and God bless ❤
Its so sad that so many people only get to know the f'in religious side of christianity 😭 bc that should not be the reason for believe- we should be Christians because we love god and we want to love other peolpe just like jesusss loves us…
And I honestly wish for you guys to feel just a tiny bit of how MUCH you are loved
Guys the sin called “pride” means thinking ur better than other people. Pride was only classified as being in the LGBTQ+ in the past 100 years. Go read a Bible and search it up.
oh lord this one hit close to home. 😅 sadly i grew up the same way. they really do hate questions. this cake looks incredible though lol!
Based
Are you sure that wasn’t a cult
That cake looks so good I could chew my arm off
Your content is so beautifully shot #goals
I’m so sorry you had a negative experience with Christianity and your church growing up. 😔 I always feel self conscious saying, “God bless” to anyone (as it could come off as self-righteous) but I know I mean it in the most authentic and humble way possible: God bless!
I didn’t realize my volume was down the first time through. I dare anyone to watch it w/o sound and get more than half the story. (I thought I was reading, but apparently, on watching again, I’m way more interested in caaaaaake. )
This is a 💎 of a video.
I love your videos❤, and its so sad to see that these kinds of things happen, i think that people when spreading the gospel shouldnt just twist it to justify what they think is right.
❤❤❤👏👏👏
Where in the bible does it say women have to only have kids and be submissive all the time. KNOWHERE. Esther literally saved her people by being defiant and trusting god. I absolutely hate when people twist the bible to accommodate themselvess and rule over others. Pharisee ahh christians.
This is very me. As a child I asked questions and church leaders didn't like that, the head of our childrens bible study group made me believe I was a sinner and a bad person. I lived most of my childhood believing so, merely cuz I was inquisitive and didn't like being spoonfed answers. A bad church does a number on you 😅
Exactly, its never about being real with emphatics, its about control. Im not religious because I just dont believe, but i have plenty of people around me who are and who are truly loving people. We cant openly talk and ask questions and not feel belittled. Ive alwyas said, if ypu want someone to believe in your way of life, then show them that you walk the talk, that includes not pushing your own beliefs on others.
I’m so sorry that you’ve been made to feel that Christianity excludes questioning and that deep thinking and wrestling cannot exist within a Christian walk. It breaks my heart that you were told your primary purpose was to reproduce— that is not biblical. You were created to know and love the Creator Who made you and died on your behalf. Everything else comes in light of that. So we can be single and honor God, married and honor God, married without kids and honor God. We were created by and for Him and it is the sweetest love story ever told. I’m so sorry that happened to you.
It took me so long to deconstruct and let myself be queer, let myself not hang my head in guilt over every little thing, this was a nice story <3
I’d rather be a ‘problem case’ than thrown around by some man who clearly needs a lotta bit of humbling
….I I don't think those are core Christian tennents. At least not the kind I grew up in.
As a Christian, what you went through was messed up. I’m really sorry and sending my love
As a Christian, I will say that most don't see the hypocrisy in their actions and the incorrect information they spread. Sorry that they did that to you.
That plot twist at the end was totally predictable.
Thank you. This is incredibly relatable. I too was told all these things growing up very religious. It was a process to unlearn all these things, and to learn that I'm not exactly straight. I love your videos. Keep asking questions and learning.
I am a christian.What your pastor said to you was horrible.Maybe your pastor wasnt fully inclined with the lord and respectfully i do not believe in marrying the same gender.Many may disagree but i follow the bible.I believe you can be saved and feel the true love of god.Because god didnt give you life without a purpose.The holy spirit us telling me to tell you this at this momment and even if i know many will not like this.I will not lie.So god bless you and have a lovely day.
I'm glad my parents didn't do this to me. Are they religious? Yep, but they questioned churches and were incredibly selective. They loved it when we questioned them and the Bible because they believe people should seek truth.
Am I a "bit" fruity myself? Yep! And my parents are like, "Everyone has their flaws and their own battles". Didn't condemn me even if they do believe having even just romantic feelings is a sin itself. They criticize people who call themselves Christians more than they do non-Christians. And that's how I came to judge religions based on their texts rather than people, because people can be stupid and power-hungry.
In terms of submission, I found out it's entirely about trust. My mother was submissive but so was my father. She trusted him to protect her body, and he trusted her to protect his heart. People these days though like to cherry pick and make us look like baby factories and punching bags for overgrown toddlers.
I love hearing you. Listening to your stories is the best part of my day ❤
