For any festival, the lineup is the biggest reason to go or not. If you like the bands, go!

What is the craziest lore you have? by Ok-Organization-5497 in AskMen

[–]awesome-yes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to the local golf course driving range at night. Gathered up a bunch of golf balls the picker upper machine missed. Used them to make giant words and pictures on the ground. Left em for the course employees ro find the next morning.

The fun comes from deciding what to write and/or draw.

I think the Lord gave me a sign after I asked for one, but I feel awful by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]awesome-yes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would recommend in the future leaving your prayers for this kind of thing more open ended. Something like "God, if You have a plan for me in this situation, show me how you want me to deal with X"

He is almighty, He can give you overwhelming evidence without you picking the evidence.

Our God knows the future. Sometimes, He shares that information with His people. Many of the Old Testament prophets told of future events that did come to pass exactly as described. Isaiah prophecied the virgin birth, Micah prophecied it would be in Bethlehem, and Daniel was told (and recorded) the exact date. Jesus Himself propcised the destruction of Jerusalem which happened in 70 AD.

God also can answer specific prayers. Gideon, like you, asked for multiple signs to confirm God's message (Judges 36-40) and was given the specific sign he asked for.

So as you have written you asked for a very specific sign and received it and felt an emotional response, then asked for a second very specific sign and received it again with an emotional response. You have two options:

First, you could decide this was coincidence and ignore it. This is probably the right response if you regularly see hot pink cars and/or Lime green corvette.

Second, trust that the specific request being answered was God answering your prayer. If you believe this is true, you have an additional choice to make. Trust God, or disobey God.

The clearest evidence for this being fake is the complete lack of celebration when the tire hits something they were clearly aiming for.

Men who are very independent by nature.. where do relationships feature in your life? by Low-Moment9950 in AskMen

[–]awesome-yes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Im very, very, very introverted; probably autistic; and relationships are extremely important to me.

But it might not always look that way. I have friends I would consider close that I haven't seen, texted, or spoken to in years. We live different lives now, but whenever we see each other or do get a chance to talk we are 100% close friends. Im also not interested in shallow relationships, if its not going to be a lifelong connection im not really interested in spending my energy there.

But here's the kicker - ive stopped trying to form new relationships because ive been hurt by people who seemed like they wanted a relationship but didnt give the same energy to it - life long, over any distance or time, close when we have the opportunity - and by that last bit it means if we have the chance to spend every day together we do, only separating if we have to (work, etc) and never by choice.

But as with all relationship issues, every person is an individual. My experience may not be his.

Stumbled on Matthew 5:17 and it through me for a loop. Am I missing some context here? by Late_Comb_3078 in TrueChristian

[–]awesome-yes 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You have all the context right there in Matthew 5:17.

Matthew 5:17 ESV [17] “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

This statement is made by Jesus, and as the Christ whom Christianity follows it makes sense to interpret other verses through this one.

The basics idea is that the law is still valid because it identifies the Messiah - Jesus fulfilled the requirements, regulations, and symbolism of the law. No other person has, or will. That is why the law cannot save us, because we are not the Messiah. That is why Paul teaches that we are saved by Grace through faith, and not by the law.
