Is the Pentecostal denomination legalistic?
I have heard a lot of discussion and debate about this and I would like someone to help clear it up.

I'm getting confirmed in a few months and I really like TEC because of their three legged stool and inclusivity of all views of scripture. Are Catholics allowed to rely on reason like the Episcopalians? Sorry if this sounds dumb! Christ's blessings!
Hello! I have been having feelings for someone who is an Atheist and I am curious to know if it is a sin to shoot my shot?
I hope I end up with a wife like this someday!
I took the news that the American spinoff got canned pretty hard. I really need some cheering up. Is Netflix cooking up anything for Squid Game?
I had a weird dream last night. I was at CCD but instead of my normal teacher there were two men. One was dressed in simple clothes and claimed to be a representative of god. The other was in a designer suit and sunglasses and claimed to be representative of the devil. But for some reason the representative of god was mean to me. He would single me out in front of the whole class and was just very rude to everybody, especially me. Is this god trying to say he hates me? I know this sounds incredibly stupid it just has been on my mind all day.
I have been questioning Catholicism for quite some time now, but I still have strong faith in Jesus and I have been getting very active in a local protestant church. Did anyone else experience anything similar?
I recently got the Corporal Works of Mercy badge and I was wondering if I sewed a hook on the top I could wear it on my pocket like temporary badges? I’m not sure because it is from the Catholic Scouting Community.
Jump rope was cool but the idea of Dongdeamun would have been less fast paced and more emotiona. Maybe they could have done it after the revolution and before Hide-and-Seek so we could see ever play it. I even saw a really cool fan idea back when Dongdeamun was the main theory for the game with the two dolls at the end where player 007 is about to be the one under the bridge but his mom pushes him out of the way and gives a really heartwarming speech before the guards eliminate her. It would have been really cool and the music is fire!
I know which one you to depends on how close to god you were in life but what exactly is the difference between them? I know you can only become a living god in Celestial but that's about all I really know for sure. (I'm not a LDS member so I don't really know much)
Ever since I met some LDS missionaries at Walmart I have been learning more and more about the Book of Mormon. Now most of the stuff about Joseph Smith and modern prophets I find to not be true but there are some things I can see being true or at least partly true in the Book of Mormon. The biggest one is the idea of the three kingdoms (Celestial, Terresital, and Telestial) and how good a person was in life determines where they go. Celestial being the highest where you live eternally in ultimate absolute happiness with the father, son, and spirt. Terrestial for people who were virtuous but not religious or lukewarm Christians where you spend eternity in a happy state with the son and spirt. Or the Telestial for bad people where instead of fire, they spend their eternity in semi-happiness with just the spirit. Also, there is a fourth place called the outer darkness where none of the trinity members are with you but that place is only reserved for Satan, his angel army, and his human followers (Satanists). It would make sense that god would desire everyone to be a little happy and salvation not being a one size fits all. Is this allowed in TEC?
My pet just passed away so please pray that he's in heaven with Jesus
I really don’t understand the difference between these two. Can someone please explain?
I have been researching this topic for a while now and I still don’t understand. If Lutherans believe that god elects people for salvation then how is it possible that those who are not elect choose to reject god of their own free will? What separates that from just plain Calvinism? Sorry I just really don’t understand. Can someone explain pleas?
I have been working on the Corporal Works of Mercy badge and I was wondering if the counselor has the final say if something counts for it's requirements like past events. I did a family activity sorting food which some of which we gave to a local homeless shelter. My counselor witnessed all of it. Is it his final say if that counts or not or is it the Catholic Scouting Committee?
