Proverbs 28:13 Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
"the entire Christian narrative is embedded in the image of the cherubim wielding flaming swords at the gates of Eden placed by God there to keep Adam and Eve from re-entering paradise. a sword is a symbol of judgement, of the separation of the wheat from the chaff, and a flaming sword is not just that which carves but that which burns. and what does it carve and burn away? everything about you that isnt perfect so you may enter paradise
lets say the flaming swords are a symbol of death. that seems pretty obvious. lets say further they are a symbol of apocalypse and hell. not only do you have to face death, you have to face hell, before you can get to paradise. hellish judgement and all thats embedded in that image."

Where is this from
The only "freedom" that Adam had in the garden was the freedom to sin, which paradoxically made him a slave to sin. When Christ sets you free, He frees you from sin but makes you a slave to Christ.
Servant to Christ*
Slavery is for Satan
in the abrahamic religions there is a massive prohibition (in theory) against idolatry, its one of the commandments you are not ever supposed to represent God. christianity takes this the least serious. why? interlopers?

The whole debate boils down to whether you can depict Christ. Since Christ if fully God and fully man. There's a whole ole history of argumentation on this topic. Look up John of Damascus and the iconoclasts controversy
The only common denominator the only truth the only certainty of this life this existence is YHWH ELOHIM YESHUA
Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.
With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

Nobody is saying the church is God Himself. I am saying a church exists for a communal worship and love of Him and His word (the Bible). Not to talk about climate change and gun violence
