Deviants
 WELCOME ALL TO THE SCARLET CHAPEL An interdenominational Christian group aimed towards those of faith who partake in (sub)cultures such as Dark Wave, Punk, Goth, Soft Goth, Emo, Scene, Metal, Rock, Industrial, Grunge, Lolita, Straight Edge, and the like...#The-Scarlet-Chapel is for men and women of similar taste and belief in Christ to use their abilities and speak out against the grain of stereotypical expectations, and have lots of fun doing so. Best thing is, they would also be glorifying God in a brand new light. ❤  HOW TO JOIN USIn order to become a member of the Chapel, ALL APPLICANTS for membership MUST AGREE & ABIDE at least to the statement of faith, which can be found below: STATEMENT OF FAITH: "I have repented my sinful ways and have accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, the Son of God in the flesh, who has died & risen for me to be with Him in eternal life."  "Excuse me, but isn't this a sort of dark Christian group? Isn't that sort of...weird?" Depends on why you think it's weird. As far as definitions go, anyone can be dark, regardless of gender, belief, and/or background. There is also no biblical law that says you need to have a certain taste or personality in order to be a Christian: they will bear fruit of the Holy Spirit, regardless of taste and preference. The Lord wants us to come and worship him as we are:    Dark Art is anything that is emotional, unsettling, serious, or dark in both context and in the type of picture/text. It is not just horror, macabre, expressing of depression or mutilation.This type of art, whether digital, traditional or photography, etc., is encouraged in this group while maintaining a Christ centered &/or biblical message.   Please make sure your work is "obviously" Christ Centered or Biblically based. Be specific in the art, words or description. Leave no room for guessing. No pornographic, nude imagery, sexual, and/or inappropriate representation. No inappropriate gore and/or self-harming pics or works. No art indicating harassment towards other deviants. No art that undermines sin. You can make art about a sin or the topic of sin, but as Christians we should do our best to avoid indulging in them in a way that makes them look “ok”. Please submit your works into the appropriate folders!- Featured (submit all works that are not semi-dark or literature here) - Semi-Dark (artworks that are not-so-dark as the rest of the arts in the gallery) - Literature (poems, stories, and pieces deserve their own section) NOTE: If you wish to join or if you are a member who wishes to participate, we require we practice what we preach. If we agree to these tenants, we must live them as well. Do not feel rejected, when you decide to submit anything contrary to Scriptures or that promotes sin, regardless of what society says about it. The Word of God is not up for social change. Membership requirements may be changed without notice. |
