iustuspeccator on tumblr explore communities change palette sign up log in grwm for ministry iustuspeccator seminarian queer affirming lutheran side blog i follow from the belldam ze hir or he him ask me anything follow posts pinned iustuspeccator about me this is a side blog so i don t annoy my irl friends with christian discourse lol i m joanie my identity is foremost christian and then in no particular order lutheran queer trans white usamerican also some other things but these are the perspectives i cannot speak outside of i am a second year seminarian and candidate for ministry my current ministry interests are expressions of future church life pathways to christianity for faith seekers marginalized by the church repairing harm done by the church reclaiming christianity from the american right wing and intra and interfaith ecumenism phrasing borrowed from amos yong my ongoing theological historical interests are forgiveness the judaic roots of christianity universal salvation universalism religious plurality queer theology the apostolic age patristic age and reformation this doesn t mean these are areas of expertise but rather areas of exploration and questioning i like to argue a word which here means to make reasoned statements to prove or refute an argument especially for the purpose of learning i do not like to fight i value source citation precision in language and sincerity i want to really stress again that arguing is fun for me so if i m arguing on your post and it s not fun for you just block me or if you want to continue the discussion but it s not fun let me know and i ll adjust my tone my username is a reference to martin luther s phrase simul iustus et peccator simultaneously justified and sinner to me the tradition of lutheranism gifts me a deep understand that i will sin and i will fail but that in god i have the confidence that my sin will never be the end of me it is god s grace that gives me the freedom not to hide from my mistakes but to face them and correct them thanks for reading peace be with you ps the cat in my header is patches and that s her laying on one of my bibles while i read a different one because i couldn t make her leave 3 about the author 1 43 iustuspeccator reblogged many sparrows follow sometime i think that allowing yourself to have a childlike faith also means allowing yourself to get hurt there are few in the world who suffer more than children at the hands of families states poverty etc it is not enough to be in solidarity with the most vulnerable we must also become them we must love and trust and that will mean being hurt by the tragic errors of a sinning world but that s how we draw closer to god 9 22 iustuspeccator reblogged mysticismmess follow being against and standing up to fascism is a christian duty and obligation not a choice opinions et cetera despite the fact that the ones who set up and run fascism are often christians in the west at least elbys hysterics especially because of it imo christian in the prescriptive sense not the descriptive sense prev ohhh prescriptive descriptive is a great way to put it 10 202 372 iustuspeccator changing my username to literallylutheran so people stop assuming i m catholic this is a joke for now 3 8 iustuspeccator reblogged gayleviticus follow evangelism outreach whatever you want to call it etc is obviously a v hot topic issue w progressive christians not only bc of colonialism but also bc of personal religious trauma from often being exvangelical and i get that and think it s an area to be seriously re evaluated and i do think its important to deconstruct the heavy emphasis on evangelism from evangelical spaces especially the idea that it is every christian s 1 priority with that said i think the kneejerk reaction against outreach in any form that i sometimes see can seem extremely naive and impractical like every organisation does some kind of outreach even within judaism a famously non proselytising religion there are still groups that try to reach out to non practising jews and reconnect them with their faith the local board games club advertises itself sports teams need members to thrive that does not need to be some sinister ulterior motive yes religion does carry more weight than just sports teams and is intwined with culture issues of autonomy etc your church doing outreach is not just the same as trying to get people to join your sewing club but i think sometimes people overreact against evangelicalism and promote a let them just find us approach that i think is just frankly unrealistic for any organisation of course i dont then mean churches or other religions for that matter should be out street preaching and doorknocking but i think finding ways to invite in is important and worthwhile rather than either let s sit here and people will come to us because we re so cool and epic or trying to seduce coerce lure people in even with just normal social events i find it often feels more welcoming and enticing to be explicitly invited than just invited to a nebulous fb event or get ed in a group chat that s not true for everyone nor is it true in every circumstance and it is definitely not without its baggage in religious circles it is something to think carefully about i just think when people propose that places of worship just sit around and decline because if theyre truly worthy people will just show up which is not true of any initiative of any kind it seems very naive it would be more honest to say i think outreach is too fraught and too morally risky to even try than to suggest that actually it s being pragmatic to do nothing also it essentially cedes the ground to the religious organisations that are out there outreaching with zero qualms and of course if they are willing to use unethical tactics that disrespect people s autonomy and invoke fear of hellfire then in some regards they will see success that people with principles don t but ceding the entire field to them is i think also not helpful anyway just some musings feel free to disagree but please be nice it cedes the ground to conservative and harmful groups why does everyone think that being christian automatically means you hate science and women and gay people because liberal christians never admit to being christian evangelism 7 28 iustuspeccator the thing about mark driscoll s made up body builder jesus is that you find this everywhere in my first semester at seminary i had a classmate a lifelong lutheran and very conservative theologian say that jesus wasn t a victim because he was essentially in control and didn t let it happen to him modern lutherans will say with a straight face that the paschal victim wasn t a victim because they can t worship someone who loses you can t separate christus victor from christ crucified like maybe instead of denying christ s identity as a victim you should allow generate some sort of empathy or concern for victims of state violence abuse persecution oppression even those that you think let it happen just a thought i actually have a lot to say on this but i just can t quite articulate it yet i m taking a class on theology of the cross this summer so i hope to say more after that christblr theology of the cross also newsflash asshole no one lets it happen 4 23 69 iustuspeccator reblogged gayleviticus pitbolshevik follow the funniest christians are the fucking like dudebro evangelicals like mark driscoll pitbolshevik jesus had a sword and he was tattooed and he fucked sooo many women and he had a six pack and loved to punch people okay well i dont think he did any of that actually but im glad you re having fun pitbolshevik im not exaggerating at all btw they literally say shit like this i can t worship a guy i can beat up so i invented a new one skill issue mark 5 144 290 iustuspeccator reblogged elbys hysterics demigirl in christ follow 33 105 iustuspeccator reblogged elbys hysterics luciaofsyracuse doubt is the mechanism by which faith evolves rachel held evans evolving in monkey town how a girl who knew all the answers learned to ask the questions via hymnsofheresy 1 89 100 iustuspeccator reblogged many sparrows follow yesterday was pentecost our advocate the holy ghost is out haunting the streets she is anointing the heads of her apostles and they are speaking in tongues of righteous rage of love that refuses to look away of compassion and protection christ is in the crowd overturning tables and driving out agents of greed and evil the young are having visions of what will happen if power is left unchecked and the old are dreaming dreams of justice pentecost 93 201 iustuspeccator reblogged many sparrows follow my rendition of romans 8 20 26 it is hope itself that will liberate the earth and its people from the bondage of decay and despair and into the freedom and glory of god the whole earth groans and snarls and wails as if it s a woman in labor to give birth right up until now in fact not just the earth but we also groan as we navigate this broken world and wait for something better for it is in this hope that we are saved but hope in something you have already seen and known isn t hope at all who hopes for what they already have but we wait for what we hope for but do not yet have the holy spirit helps us in our weakness even when we don t know what to pray or ask for the spirit hears lives in our groans grumbling complaining god who searches our hearts knows what we wait and hope for because the spirit unites us pentecost 9 20 iustuspeccator reblogged tellmeamiveryfar iustuspeccator follow shout out to acts 2 14 15 the funniest two verses in the bible we re not drunk it s 9am catch us at 9pm tho you
