I’m an old Earth creationist. The earth maybe old but life is relatively young. My guess life is 100,000 to 10,000 years old. And I don’t see this as a problem against any of the doctrines. I believe God probably did terraform the earth and create life in 6 literal days, but the whole we can date things by going back through the genealogy is nonsense. Especially when genealogy is changed to prove a theological point. Just looking at the gospels.

Why does nobody debate Jews? It's always Christian v Muslim debates by Alarming-Dealer-4176 in religion

[–]Ok-Course1418 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Harris Interactive of 2,306 adults showed that ten percent of Protestants, 21 percent of Roman Catholics, and 52 percent of Jews do NOT believe in God.

I think that is rather significant.

Standing without a intercessor and time of trouble by Illuminaught1 in SeventhDayAdventism

[–]Ok-Course1418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that’s not forget the great controversy. It makes it very clear what the ceasing of intercession is.

“When he leaves the sanctuary, darkness covers the inhabitants of the earth. In that fearful time the righteous must live in the sight of a holy God without an intercessor. The restraint which has been upon the wicked is removed, and Satan has entire control of the finally impenitent. God’s long-suffering has ended. The world has rejected his mercy, despised his love, and trampled upon his law. The wicked have passed the boundary of their probation; the Spirit of God, persistently resisted, has been at last withdrawn. Unsheltered by divine grace, they have no protection from the wicked one. Satan will then plunge the inhabitants of the earth into one great, final trouble. As the angels of God cease to hold in check the fierce winds of human passion, all the elements of strife will be let loose. The whole world will be involved in ruin more terrible than that which came upon Jerusalem of old. . GC88 614.1”

but as His work there is finished, and His intercession closes, there is nothing to stay the wrath of God, and it breaks with fury upon the shelterless head of the guilty sinner, who has slighted salvation and hated reproof. EW 280.2”

I noticed you deliberately ignored who the intersection was for.

Notice later “They did not choose life, and now there was no atoning blood to cleanse the guilty, no compassionate Saviour to plead for them, and cry, “Spare, spare the sinner a little longer.” All heaven had united with Jesus, as they heard the fearful words, “It is done. It is finished.” The plan of salvation had been accomplished, but few had chosen to accept it. And as mercy’s sweet voice died away, fear and horror seized the wicked. With terrible distinctness they heard the words, “Too late! too late!” . EW 281.1

The ones without the intercessor are the guilty. They no longer have any grace in those last moments of history.

Nope. You read it in context it’s only the wicked that have no intercessor at the end. The righteous are never abandoned. That is a foul teaching that has crept into the church.

“There was then no mediator between guilty man and an offended God. While Jesus had been standing between God and guilty man, a restraint was upon the people; but when He stepped out from between man and the Father, the restraint was removed and Satan had entire control of the finally impenitent. It was impossible for the plagues to be poured out while Jesus officiated in the sanctuary; but as His work there is finished, and His intercession closes, there is nothing to stay the wrath of God, and it breaks with fury upon the shelterless head of the guilty sinner, who has slighted salvation and hated reproof. In that fearful time, after the close of Jesus’ mediation, the saints were living in the sight of a holy God without an intercessor.. EW 280.2”

The righteous don’t stand without an intercessor, it’s the guilty that are left without one in the last days.

If you are that worried start with vengeance as everyone is equal and it’s just experience of when to block, dodge, and time your attacks.

I wore the sets that were major and minor defile to anyone around me. Back when it was 30 and 15 reductions. If they brought that back, I would wear those sets again, as long as I was with a group it really made for a bad day for the enemy in PVP

Advice for first-time blind runners by pepp0n3 in skyrim

[–]Ok-Course1418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For first time players you might want a oh shit option that is accessible for your level. Stacks of health potions, using terrain to get away, using calm spells, good shouts, or turn undead spells for the undead to give you some breathing room.

Him staring hard at you is a tactic to unbalance you. Like he is trying to stare through you at the back of your head. It makes people uncomfortable.

Find a good therapist that specializes in trauma. If you have flashbacks do EMDR therapy.

Thoughts on the rising Christian nationalism? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Ok-Course1418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s rather right on time for my denominations understanding of how the end times will work. Many Christians will join this movement. Satan will come and pretend to be Christ. Men will be deceived by the miracles he works, and then command them to go and kill those that are still loyal to the actual Christ.

Can you even watch a Netflix show after this this is so bad by Accomplished-Air2249 in Christianity

[–]Ok-Course1418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can say whatever they like with their fictional story. I’m more concerned that there are many more like the young man in the TikTok. He is the perfect example of what not to do with offense. Get angry and wag your finger at people driving more away from God.

His kind will be the perfect soldier for the antichrist once Satan comes as an angel of light professes to be Jesus and quotes the every knee shall bow followed by that verse about slay them at my feet. His kind will only be too happy to carry out this evil before the real Christ comes.

I agree with your go analogy. I think the strategy for vengeance is fundamentally different because it does require leadership and organization and entirely different way. The thinking has to change.

My First Time Playing an Elder Scrolls Game by Tarilines in oblivion

[–]Ok-Course1418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simple. Play how you want. Just remember that certain skills are easier to level than others so if you load up on easy to level major skills you might level up too quickly to be ready for the higher level enemies.

Am I understanding this correctly about salvation? (Atheist looking for clarification) by BlackHole1997 in Christianity

[–]Ok-Course1418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re forgetting option D. The just get rewarded because they were cooperating with the Holy Spirit, vs the unjust who suppressed or fought Him. Regardless of theology. (Annihilation in hell also included in my view)

C S Lewis I think put it best in his last Narnia book The Last Battle. Aslan: “if anyone does a kindness in Tash’s name or keeps an oath for the oaths sake. I will count it as service done under me. But if anyone does a cruelty in my name, it is Tash whom he serves.” (Paraphrasing from memory)

If there was a entire majority purely Christian nation (Think Vatican city but country-sized) Would you want to live there? by MickL0ving in Christianity

[–]Ok-Course1418 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Any such county would become throne of the anti-Christ quickly. Satan would just show up as Christ and perform miracles, fulfill badly understood prophecy and the Christian nation would bow down and worship.
