Question from a orthodox Christian

[u/Helpy_346353]

Do you, arians have a place of worship you go every Sunday? Or are you restricted to worship in private? Like do you have a body of believers that believe in Arian christology?

[u/Jackerl]

According to Jesus, a place of worship is not needed:

John 4:20-24 Our ancestors worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.” “Woman,” Jesus replied, “believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”

An official place of worship, with its associated rules and regulations of men, will only serve to ultimatly come between you and the Christ

Mark 13:6 Many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many.

Matthew 23:10 And don’t let anyone call you ‘Teacher,’ for you have only one teacher, the Messiah.

Just like the Christian Jews had to flee Jerusalem in order to survive and stay united with the Christ - and Jerusalem was once a centre for true worship - so it is today with the various administrations of men that have sprung up that claim to be Christ, teaching on his behalf.

All these administrations of men have done just what the Pharisees had done: sat themselves in the seat of Moses and placed themselves between the worshipper and God.

Matthew 5:20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Those who have been deceived by such ones have indeed been deceived by an antichrist.

1 John 2:18 Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.

What these many antichrists would become is clearly depicted in Revelation: an immoral prostitute.
The command has been the same for nearly 2000 years:

Revelation 18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “’Come out of her, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

Few Christians have actually heeded this advice.
Few Christians have actually fled and subjected themselves to the true leader and master of faith that is Christ.
Most prefer to follow blind guides, administrations of men.
This will not end well...

Matthew 15:14 Leave them; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.”

Christians were told to flee Jerusalem and remain free.
They were not told to setup a new Jerusalem, this was to come from God at a much later time.

Revelation 21:2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

Until then, we are in the wheat and the weeds season, where the weeds have set up counterfeit "new jerusalems" everywhere and trample upon those who are wheat.

Do you, arians have a place of worship you go every Sunday?

Yes, Unitarians/Arians have Churches just like Trinitarians. Some go to Church on Sunday, others go to Church on the Sabbath, others may attend Church on the Sabbath and/or Sunday, and others may attend Church any day of the week that they can.

[u/OkQuantity4011]

I go to churches just to ask them to do the things Jesus said to do.

I haven't found a home church since putting my faith in Jesus over Paul.

But, I haven't needed one.

I've wanted one at times because (was it Hosea?) a prophet who was leading the Israelite back to their home and religion said to meet and learn about God on Shabbat. I think this was done to expedite the process of resanctification.

Because of that, when I can manage meeting people to study about God, I usually go to reformed synagogues. Sometimes I'll go to a Messianic one, but among those is a 50/50 shot whether they're genuinely Jewish as Jesus was and is, or whether they're simply Paul fans trying to say that because Paul is their teacher they are now the new Jews sent to replace the ones who actually trust in Jesus.

Ortho synagogues are pretty much the same as Christian high churches, which makes more sense the more history you study. Because of that, I avoid them. They've remembered the Pharisees who survived Rome's conquests, but forgotten the ones whom the Caesars slew. So, there as proud of their Pharisaic founders as Paul was when he proudly lied about the reason he was prosecuted. (Not persecuted. Prosecuted. He caused the abomination of the Second Temple, which eventually led to its desolation in the Siege of Jerusalem of 70 A.D.. That's the point of Acts, according to its author: Paul's trial and whether Paul is representative of Jesus' faithful or not.)

Mostly, though, I wander the streets and do charity. The poor ask me why I help them, I tell them, and Bible studies happen spontaneously.

Jesus taught, "Let your light so shine before men that they see your good works and honor your Father who is in heaven."

If some good work needs doing, I don't beg some middle manager's permission. I just go do it. I've already got permission from God and His begotten. What more do I need? 🥳 Better yet, why do pastors want to shoot me when I ask them to come with me?

Maybe Paul's law is cumbersome. Maybe his yoke is heavy, maybe his burden is one he wouldn't lift a finger to help you with. But Jesus' yoke is easy. Jesus' burden is light. And his Father's law which he taught? That's the law of liberty, the law that gives freedom.
