Christian Skepticism is a worldview that questions all doctrines, confessions, lifestyles, and practices—regardless of popularity or cultural/religious acceptance—in an effort to separate absolute truth from mere opinion, bias, or propaganda, using the Bible as the highest authority is determining these absolutes. We believe that God is not honored through falsehood, ungrounded religious dogmatism, or preferential conclusion masquerading as cosmic certainty, but is instead honored when truth is discovered, taught, and lived out. #skepticism #deconstruction #suffering #faith #belief #hope #deconversion #god #christianity #christianbelief #theology #sin #repentance #lordshipsalvation #grace #churchleadership #philosophy #worldview #athiest #agnostic #bible #biblestudy
