Description[?]:
| Our party has started to craft own theological line within Ameliorate tradition, borrowing from Terran Patriarchal Church tradition and from various philosophies, especially around founding a new church and political ideology. To shorten the documents, our party reveals the doctrine that many Hosians may find it not in line with normal behavior toward apostates and sinners. The papers conclusive results: - a sinner is even one that seeks to sin in his heart, thus he has to acknowledge it and battle it on own terms - God desires true citizens of the Heavenly Kingdom, not masses of supposed pious men - God intended for men to have a choice in sinning, taking it away would invalidate such premise of free will - while sin can be increased due to policy and societal state, sin and evil is found within everyone equally regardless of material conditions - God is the only judge on sins, thus its our duty to spread the Word and allow each of us be helped by God, laws have no meaning if peoples' hearts feel oppressed by them - change will be implemented as voluntary and non violent as possible, violence is highly abbhorent - God 's word has a social justice aspect and the holy texts should be seen within a historical context as well - human nature is inherently prone to sin due to the way we chose, but also be seen that the ability to choose means an inherent possibility for disobedience - the war on evil cannot be won unless everyone committs to the faith voluntarily and believes in Divine grace - sin permeates society, material analysis of society is lackluster because of this These papers, aside many ideas taken from Lodamese philosophy schools of thought and Terran Patriarchal Church have given us these laws we want passed: |
