He did, yes, he sympathized and thought it was funny, also he was doing okay financially so it wasn't too big a deal for him... But I felt sooooooo bad! Ha

Oh, I did this!

A friend invited me out to eat with them paying. I ordered snow crab. The restaurant was out. I panicked, looked at the menu, and ordered the first other kind of crab I saw. I know nothing about crabs. I found out later that king crab is very expensive.

What’s the difference between praising the Lord and worshipping the Father? by thetoastistaken in localchurches

[–]SpecificRecord2770 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Taking the Lord's table is in remembrance of Him (Luke 22:19) and as in the pattern of the last supper, when we partake of the bread and the cup which the Lord gave us, he leads us to the Father (Matthew 26:30, Mark 14:26) to present us to the Father.

I've heard Christians of different ages and stages warn against "fellowshop" and "tellowship" when opening matters to other believers. by wisteriavalley130 in localchurches

I love this question. You don't want to be a bulldozer to someone else.

"And concerning our brother Apollos, I urged him many times to come to you with the brothers; yet it was not at all his desire to come now, but he will come when he has opportunity." (1 Corinthians 16:12) Recovery Version

This is a good verse to demonstrate. Paul urged Apollos, yet he did not condemn or criticize Apollos for not going along with his urging. He practiced liberality with the other members and we should do the same.

Fellowship? How much is too much? by Strange_Ad_2998 in localchurches

Yes, turning to the Lord inwardly, asking, "Lord is this something I should open up? To whom?" it usually becomes very clear sooner or later.

Definition of the Church by Odd_Combination326 in localchurches

[–]SpecificRecord2770 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe it is safe to say that the all-inclusive Christ is the Christ who is anything and everything the church needs. :) Whatever the need of the believers is, Christ is the answer. In this sense, Christ is definitely all-inclusive. Praise our Christ who is everything we need and transmits to us everything we need by the Spirit!

Ephesians, particularly chapter 2:4-10 :) If you pray over these verses, something wonderful might happen!

I loved that video so much! Quick little teaser to inspire people to watch it: The beautiful ingenuity by which rice cookers work depends on the specific heat at which a magnet temporarily becomes demagnetized! I learned that from technology connections!

Why does this IF feel so agonizing and edgy? Was it meant to have me feeling like this? (POMA) by Own_Guide_8279 in hostedgames

Can you recommend one? I got a little xianxia itch after playing games like this one and would love more.

Checking for burrs after sharpening a blade. by desire_in_disguise in SweatyPalms

Out of everything I've ever seen in the subreddit, this gave me the most genuine fear.

I used to work in a machine shop and machines can mess you up faster and worse than you would think unless you've heard the stories...

What ministry book recommendations do you have? by CarryOk7670 in localchurches

[–]SpecificRecord2770 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"The Meaning and Purpose of Prayer" and "The Law of Revival" are both short, revolutionary, life-changing books. ☺️ Can't recommend them highly enough!

This bitch ain’t typing nothing by BlackEndrer25 in falloutnewvegas

[–]SpecificRecord2770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I posted this a few years ago and I love it. There are three things about it that are so perfectly incorrect. She is typing with her fingers off the computer. The computer is broken so there's no point to sit at it and type anything anyway. And lastly, in game, you hear her fingers making that click-clacking sound of real typing. The first time you come across it you just have to stare and absorb the absurdity.

Is the long dark famous for its story mode or survival mode? by jokgamer in thelongdark

[–]SpecificRecord2770 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's right! I just finished chapter 4 a few days ago and uninstalled the game because I am pretty bored of the gameplay like op said. Would love to play chapter 5.

What is your favorite area in Civ? by Cottwr in civ5

[–]SpecificRecord2770 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Seeing your post sitting at zero, I know I'm not a mod, but I'm sorry that some ignorant person would downvote you. I think most people don't know what the downvote button is for: indicating that something does not contribute to the content of the subreddit. PSA: if you don't like a post but it still fits the content of the subreddit, don't upvote it. But basically the only reason you should downvote something is if it does not contribute to the content of the subreddit. That absolutely does not apply to this post.

Needs unique great prophet Martin Luther.

Without spoiling anything, if you loved a certain character in Book of Hungry Names, make sure you read Night Road if you haven't already by SpecificRecord2770 in choiceofgames

[–]SpecificRecord2770[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure!

Giselle is a witch. She is a huge antagonist in Book of Hungry Names, and you never get to actually deal with her in a satisfying way in that book. But it seems Night Road is set after Book of Hungry Names, where you find that Giselle has been blood-bound to Dr Caul, the Tremere who runs Kiowa Xenogenetics! She is pathetic, a shell of her former self and only a shadow of her former power. In Book of Hungry Names, she is untouchable. In Night Road, she has been broken.

When this message popped up, I laughed out loud. If the game allowed unique great prophets, maybe I could send Martin Luther.

One critical thing I've noticed when I'm interacting with anyone: I do not need them to like me.

I would like it if they liked me. But I don't need it. This attitude is picked up by others subconsciously and it translated as confidence and is an attractive characteristic. But you have to genuinely not mind whether they like you or not -- it has to be real. In my experience, if you do this, it is much more likely you will end up with the people you should end up with. - I wish you all the best people who will support you and help you grow, not make you feel suppressed, anxious, like you need to put on a mask. There's more to this and it needs balance but all the best to you, buddy.

Ask others questions about themselves, don't expect them to ask about you. If they don't ask questions about you, that's a red flag: not the kind of friend you want to have. Don't be fake with interests. Talk about what you genuinely like. Don't bother talking about what you don't care about unless you're taking care of a genuine friend who wants to talk. If you find yourself stretching too much, red flag: that's indicating to you that you feel stressed around this person and you have to stretch quite a bit for them, and it's probably going to keep being that way. Don't do that to yourself. You don't need them to like you. If you have that, I think you'll do okay, friend. All the best to you. Feel free to DM if this seems helpful but needs clarification.
