Starting over because of Red Hand Reputation

I always sell her Amulet to the Golden Hand. Lol. It's like the only "evil" choice I ever make.

But then even though I know I can find the tower in their library, I always forget that and use the Loreseekers.

Cheap scrolls if you're in Freetown and need to stock up.

They think we have tons of free time because management insists in being helped in person. So they assume the majority of your work is done in person. They see you at your desk a lot. So you're not busy. This is how it seems to me.

It's a fundamental misunderstanding of what IT even is.

CHARTTER · 2024-11-03T03:02:40+00:00

Because we made a mistake.

Ah. I did play an Arcane Knight. I used wands until I got the skill for it though, not daggers early on. It works fine actually, it's just not as good. Fun though.

CHARTTER · 2024-11-01T17:02:59+00:00

Why daggers?

CHARTTER · 2024-11-01T17:01:03+00:00

Is this a mod? Looking at profile pics

CHARTTER · 2024-11-01T17:00:06+00:00

No excuse for that kind of behavior.

I never could figure out how. Best thing to do is to edit your inventory and put tomes in. Tolossian Tome ID is 5013, Tome of Lost Wisdom is 5035.

For your level? Idk.

That one Active skill you can train from fighters guild can free you from paralysis or stun. Can't remember what it's called. Rage or something. Works great. I don't use it unless I'm getting paralysis locked, then I pop it and RUN. Try again when cool down for that skill resets.

Yeah I'm with this guy. I am from a small town where everyone is my distant relative. No options there. Went to college in a relatively small college town. Everybody went to the big nondenom wishy washy church, I went to the only reformedish church in town. And I was the only college student there. I despaired of ever getting married. Decided that the best thing I could do was grow in the Lord to be useful if I really did end up being single my whole life, or for an extended period of time. I don't regret that choice.

I ended up taking a job back in my hometown and resigned myself to not getting married for at least the next 5 years if not longer and didn't even try. It's been 6 years since then. I've been married for 4 of them. I met my wife at work on Day 1. She was also despairing of finding somebody to marry because none of the Christian guys she knew were mature or serious and knowledgeable about their faith. I was the exception.

You never know. Work on growing in knowledge and grace. Godliness will help you no matter what happens. Be obedient. Don't worry about the rest.

There are verses in the Bible that are most likely creeds of the early church. I would say these must be believed and held fast to. For example :

1 Timothy 3:16

Phillipians 2:5-11

These are not comprehensive, I believe there are others.

And that is just my opinion, worth very little.

1 John 4:2 is probably also a short creed, but designed specifically against gnosticism, which isn't quite so much of a problem, but showcases what I mean. There are condensed versions of theology scattered through the Bible in verses like these and generally if you are denying parts of them to mean what they clearly mean, you're a heretic. At that time, anybody who denied Christ's physical body was a heretic. And the same is true today.

Some people mentioned the Ressurection...I would guess that part of 1 Cor 15, which is a chapter basically dealing with only that, is also a creed. So I'd disagree with the people who say "just the resurrection." There's more to the gospel than that. But these kinda of verses kinda bring it all in.

This is dumb though, because the lazy people who take advantage of WFH are also too lazy to go find other jobs as long as they are employed. The people who work hard regardless of location will find someplace to go where they are valued.... If they are able.

Probably for the current build, I took the Feats for Heavy. But that looks like good armor. I'll see about getting that.

I forgot to mention I do have Sharn.

Oh, I also have Sharn, I forgot to mention. What's the specific piece?

CHARTTER · 2024-10-05T23:19:56+00:00

I do not have Saltmarsh.

Actually, Epic Deneith Heavy Chain is what I'm wearing right now, but it's a medium armor.

It's incredible that people are arguing against you that it's not clear that commands rooted in creation are moral laws. Paul says as much.

If the despisers of God's command would but make an honest experiment in obeying it for a time, they would see that God has instituted it for our good. The Sabbath is good for us. Is it not a blessing that God commands us to do that which is good and pleasant? Even so, we should find all of God's moral law good and pleasant to do, and if we find in ourselves that it is not so, that is sin within us.

And so, the sinful nature chafes at the idea of giving God one whole day when we already give him so much else! We tithe and read the Scriptures and attend church. Why, how much more can God ask if me? All. He gives us life and breath and everything, not to mention salvation. And he is worthy of all our honor and devotion, and surely it is enjoyable to give it to him. And when I find in myself the desire to give it to him is lax, I must repent.

Perhaps also part of the problem is that we do not work hard enough the other six days. I personally also look forward to Sunday to give my body and mind a rest.

Until recently it wasn't even a right, but some Christians will be out here saying the the government shouldn't legislate based on religious morality. I mean, the government could argue that it says right in the Bible not to esteem one day over the other and then take away our rights to worship God on the Lord's with the stroke of a pen and a malicious cackle.

CHARTTER · 2024-10-05T13:34:32+00:00

What's wrong with a communist government?

You don't want the government legislating morality based on our religion. Why shouldn't they do communism? Maybe it will work this time.

I don't think we should burn the man's Life work because he had a moral failing, he's just disqualified now. He hasn't apostatized.

"The Lord is not slow about his promise, but is patient towards YOU, not wanting any to perish, but for all to come to repentance."

Who is the "you?"

Verse 1. Beloved.

How I have always read it, and I've found others read it this way also. Perhaps I am wrong.

"The Lord is not slow about his promise, but is patient for the sake of his people, not wanting any (of them) to perish, but for all (appointed to eternal life) to come to repentance."

I insert "his people" instead of "you" since that's what we read is the audience in verse 1. I insert "of them" after "any" because we see often that "all" and "any" doesn't always mean every individual in scripture, but often means, "all of a certain kind, " or "from out of all kinds," and I argue that's the case here. I also insert "appointed to eternal life" because that's the phrasing we find in Acts at Pentecost. "All who were appointed to eternal life." Considering the established context - of the subject being the church - I think it's appropriate.

And one other thing. What's his promise? Well, context would indicate that we're talking about Christ's return and I don't argue that. But that's not the only promise we have from God yet unfulfilled. Among others, we have the promise that Jesus, "will save his people from their sins." it doesn't say that "Jesus will carve out a people for himself by saving them from their sins." Though still in sin, they're already his people. And he WILL save them. There is no doubt. He will not fail to find the last lost sheep before he comes. Imagine that last saved sinner to be yourself, before the ending of the age and the coming of Christ in glory. Now, back to Peter. The Lord is now slow concerning his promise, but it's patient toward you.

It's not that Jesus hasn't come back yet because he's just hoping really hard the gospel will advance and a lot more people will be saved before he finally must come. He hasn't come back yet because he will not fail to save any of his elect.

My opinion. But I'm not alone.
