Sidehugging of a Christian nature

MISSION STATEMENT

Though this is a "circlejerk" subreddit, the term 'circlejerk' is sexual in nature and thus offends the Lord. Instead, we shall use the term 'Sidehug' or 'Sidehugs' to describe the nature of self-affirmation in this subreddit in a non-sexual, gender-neutral way. Yay!


Mod's Commands

  1. Post anything that self-affirms us/makes light of/pokes fun at /r/christianity!

  2. Never link to other subreddits (known as cross-posting) including NP links, do not boast of vote brigading, or vote manipulation. If you do this you will be cast out of the promised land of Sidehugs.

  3. If making a [meta] post, please use the [meta] tag at the start of your post. These posts should not target a specific user. Use these posts to discuss drama, quality stupidity, and shenanigans in /r/christianity!

  4. Atheists are welcome but this is a subreddit of the Lord and it will be respected as such. Any anti-God posts shall be removed. THIS SUBREDDIT IS DEDICATED TO THE LOVE OF CHRIST AND WE WILL BAN YOU TO PROVE IT.

  5. The moderator team in /r/sidehugs will not police content. Humor can be a touchy subject at times, so we will continue to trust the community to tell us what true Christian hilarity looks like with blessings of upvotes and sidehugs to all who make them smile!

  6. JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS

  7. If you post any personal information (doxxing), you will be cast into the abyss for all eternity.

Note: Anything posted on Sidehugs is satire and harmless joking. Except when it's cathartic not.

Please pray for the newscasters

who are doomed to spend the evening going

"Well, there's really nothing to say yet, but we have to be on the air, because you all want to watch the news, so here we are. Over to you, Deb."

"That's right, Bob. Honestly, nothing to say yet, we're all just waiting for news. Back to you, Bob."

"That's right, Deb. Basically, we don't know shit. Back to you, Deb."

"Not a damn thing. Back to YOU, Bob."

Melchizedek should be THE focus of Old Testament studies in 2025; don’t bother to change my mind.

Imagine.

Melchizedek. Once a figure veiled in mystery, mentioned only briefly in Genesis, Psalms, and Hebrews, yet holding profound significance for the priesthood, kingship, and covenant traditions in the Hebrew Bible. This figure—who appears without origin, genealogy, or end—should become the centerpiece of OT studies today.

Although Melchizedek is A) often overlooked compared to major patriarchs and prophets, and B) rarely the focus outside specialized studies on biblical priesthood, we should bring him to the forefront.

Exploring Melchizedek is not only a way to uncover the ancient connections between kingship and priesthood but also to delve into deeper theological symbolism. His story provides a bridge between the Old and New Testaments, linking the covenantal themes in both. Melchizedek studies can be casual or highly formal: we can explore his mention in ancient Jewish texts and traditions, his role in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and his reinterpretation in early Christian writings. There’s a depth here that could spread to every corner of biblical scholarship. Imagine—Melchizedek for every major theme: covenant, kingship, sacrifice, eternity.

Remember, a servant cannot serve two masters

I mean really, just two? What kind of lazy, entitled, handout seeking “servant” can serve only a couple of masters?? Work harder, you should serve as many as you possibly can, sinner!

If you’re stuck serving 2 or fewer masters, don’t worry, you can take baby steps towards serving more by starting off with 3 instead! I’ve found that serving the following three are an excellent way to guide good, faithful Christians to sound discernment of the Will Of The Father.

  1. The Lord Jesus Christ, MY Savior and Lord who DIED for MY sins so I may believe and live forever.

  2. Money, literally makes the Earth rotate. You cannot find a more powerful master than this.

  3. The flag of the greatest country there was, is, or ever will be, the only nation bold enough to declare itself one nation under GOD. 🇺🇸

God bless you all, my brothers and sisters.

How's the simony market these days?

I've got an idea for a killer app linking buyers of benefices to sellers, something to bring the whole trade into the 21st century. I'm having trouble finding sales data on Bloomberg, though; I get the impression it's more of an old-boys' network. Does anybody have connections in the biz who can help me get the lay of the land? There could be some options in it for you.

I may have endorsed Kamala while praying in tongues. Was it possibly an evil sprit?

I never said Kamambla or crazy Kamala - who knows if "glansa" means crazy or something? Laughing maybe... For a while i thought i thought was reading judgment upon sodomites, but then I understood that I was saying "vote Kamala, save Obergefell, overturn Dobbs, impeach Thomas!" How do I become unposessed?

TIL the Song of Songs is not (only) about Christ and the Church - but also about the private business of a husband and wife.

How could this be allowed to happen! Do the elders know about this?!

I know the game isn't Satanic, or anything, but it's still supporting all of WotC's shady business practices

If you say the greatest prayer of your life, but forget to say AMEN, does it still count?

I was praying all day, everywhere and everything I was doing, but when I was finished I didn't say AMEN, just 'that's all' or something. Will my prayer go to waste?

Stop asking “Can a Christian…?”

Can a Christian play Overwatch? Can a Christian read Clan of the Cave Bear? Can a Christian listen to the radio? Can a Christian use the expensive toilet paper? The answer to all of these is NO. If you try, the Holy Spirit will stretch forth its arm and block you, and you will fall to the floor in a swoon, and maybe wake up speaking in tongues for an hour or so.
