Does anyone remember why Protestants even exist? What is the point of this sub?

I don't see a rule about it but both Protestant subs won't let me post some artwork I've done. The title was long enough, too. Is it just my computer or account being wonky or is it the subs?

Join us this Remembrance Sunday for a special service from Knightsbridge Barracks and St Giles-in-the-Fields, London. Led by The Rev (Capt). Thomas Sander CF, Chaplain of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, this service of Matins will honour those who have served and sacrificed...

KJV: Pure Religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this: - To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Berean Standard Bible: Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

New American Standard Bible: Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 27. - God and the Father; rather, our God and Father. The article (τῷ) binds together Θεῷ and Πατρί, so that they should not be separated, as in the A.V. To visit the fatherless... and to keep himself unspotted. Observe that our duty towards our fellow-men is placed first; then that towards ourselves. Ἐπισκέπτεσθαι is the regular word for visiting the sick; cf. Ecclus. 7:35, "Be not slow to visit the sick (μὴ ὄκει ἐπισκέτεσπθαι ἀῥῤωστον)." The fatherless and widows (ὀρφανοὺς καὶ χήρας). These stand here (as so often in the Old Testament) as types of persons in distress; the "personae miserabiles" of the Canon Law (see e.g. Deuteronomy 10:18; Psalm 68:5; Psalm 82:3; Isaiah 1:17; and cf. Ecclus. 4:10). "Be as a father unto the fatherless, and instead of an husband unto their mother; so shalt thou be as the son of the Most High, and he shall love thee more than thy mother doth." To keep himself unspotted. Man's duty towards himself. (For ἄσπιλον, cf. 1 Timothy 6:14; 1 Peter 1:19; 2 Peter 3:14.) From the world. This clause may be connected either with τηρεῖν or with ἄσπιλον, as in the phrase, καθαρὸς ἀπὸ in Acts 20:26.

You know what actually causes division instead of unity? Catholics deliberately spiritually distancing themselves as far as possible from their Protestant brethren. Joking that we're good for firewood. Calling our faith a "mental illness". Blaming us for things the RCC has done. Viewing us as godless heathens you want nothing to do with.

Something, something, log in your own eye....

Issues that "divide" Protestants tend to amount to things like "women wearing skirts or pants?" or "pews or chairs?" or "traditional organ music or rock?". And you know what? We're fine with that. Because at heart, we know Jesus is Lord and we're justified by faith. I don't see any serious spiritual division on the level of what some Catholics cause.

hi everyone!! i’m new to reddit and to this group. i just wanted to know the differences between Catholics/ Orthodox’s & Protestants (especially regarding salvation since that is extremely important). i myself am Protestant so i do not mean this in an attacking manner, just out of curiosity. thank you in advance!!

What do you tend to do? It's a very underrated holiday I've been working on creating traditions for.

Hello, I'm new to this Sub and I was wondering if anyone wouldn't mind clarifying for me what are the differences between these two sides of christianity. When I brought this subject up and many other controversial things on the Catholic Sub I was permanently banned. So I'm hoping that this subject isn't inappropriate for this Sub, if it is, apologies. Thanks.

If you doing NOTHING! = that's a Sin!

James 4:17 in the King James Version (KJV): "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin."

This verse highlights the idea that knowing what is right and choosing not to act on it is considered sinful. It’s not just about avoiding wrongdoing, but also about actively doing what is right and beneficial when you know you should.

In essence, the Bible teaches that responsibility extends beyond merely avoiding evil; it includes taking action to do good. So, if you’re aware of a positive action you should take and choose not to, this inaction is seen as a moral failing or sin. This concept encourages believers to live actively and responsibly, aligning their actions with their knowledge of what is right.
