John Wesley and the Moravians, Pt. 1: Seven Minute Seminary

[@johnjackman2771]

Well, he gets this mostly right -- but leaves out some really important details. One thing that is outright wrong is his conflation of "choirs" with music. Though the Moravians are very musical and had their own unique musical heritage, the "choirs" of Herrnhut had nothing to do with music. They were groupings by gender and marital status - single brothers, single sisters, married brothers, married sisters, etc. These small groups worked together, lived together, and worshiped together. Small groups based on life stages are still an effective way to organize program.

weren't they also eventually buried together?

I'll help you out. I finished this video. And I'm like Arminian and believe people can fail salvation from this scripture I found Galatians 5:19-21 that when sinning that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians was Paul's teachings, proves it can fail eternal salvation. Grandpa believed he couldn't go to Hell, and Arminians believe he could. I'm against suicide. I was depressed also to suicidal. I almost did suicide as a 5-Point Calvinist. And these scriptures got me more hope. I became more Arminian now from these scriptures I posted on here. I believe people can fail salvation. Loving God is wanting to be useful for him much. What if a person could do that much of his time? And I enjoy working from this. People who enjoy working. When it's more likely to be boring to non-Christians. Mark 9:33-35 New American Standard Bible 1995 33 They came to Capernaum; and when He [a]was in the house, He began to question them, “What were you discussing on the way?” 34 But they kept silent, for on the way they had discussed with one another which of them was the greatest. 35 Sitting down, He called the twelve and *said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, [b]he shall be last of all and servant of all.” . This is for Christian world domination. Why to raise kids Christians. God Son Jesus said similarly to whoever is useful the most is the best merited of the apostles. Useful merit for eternal rewards and competition with other Christians. With God Son Lord Jesus Christ faith teaching, people will want to be useful for the kingdom of Heaven, which usefulness happens on Earth and if any other place. We need to help this world as much as we can! This text could motivate, supposed to be Christian people, to do all types of usefulness. Chores, volunteering, grade school, high school, college, and work. Good people, this world needs them.

Interesting subject matter. Aside: constructive criticism: please break yourself of your habit of saying "uh". Understand that I mean well: I am 85 years old and still have to struggle against allowing "uh" and "you know" to slip in sentences.

It's a gap filler, lack of oxygen in the brain !! 😀👍
