I like to seem of myself as a "mere christian" from C.S. Lewis' "Mere christianity" which argues that christianity as a whole is true, not going beyond into denominational debates.
I have a hierarchy of truth that has hold true 'til today, from the most certain to the least, they go : "God exists", "Christ is God". But what those two truths implie is much harder for me to pinpoint down.
And so I don't really have a fixed church as of now, and I go around my town in orthodox, catholic and protestant churches, and talk with priests and people there about the faith. As you can imagine I love eucumenism.
I'd say don't sweat it, if you search honestly God'll show you what he wants to show you
Edit : That doesn't mean I just believe these two truths, I confess the Nicean creed, the Athanasian creed, and I even ask for the intercession of saints, et cetera
Geg seems like I ain't the only one in this situation.

At least that's what my (((((teacher))))) told me, and honestly reading the Tankah in Hebrew isn't too horrible with a dictionary at your side

If you learn Modern hebrew, you will basically be able to understand the Tanakh, so there's that. They're really not that close doe, modern Hebrew is basically a germanic language with how much it takes from them. It's like Maltese but replace Italian with German

modern Hebrew is much closer to ancient Hebrew than whatever the fuck yiddish is dougheverbeit.
I mean they made a vow to try and use as much vocabulary from scriptures as possible, even tho some words had to be changed because The pharaoh didn't attack God's chosen migrants in "Otobus", but in "chariots"

I used to be hostile towards Christianity but after seeing the degeneracy of Pagans and Atheists I've become more tolerant of it.

I <3 God rn im absolute fasting for 1 day 4 repentance and to repair my relationship with God
They are not of love. They are of hate. God loves all. Jesus Christ loves everyone , every race and every sex. To wish for a certain race to be dead is of hate , not of love.
