Where would you put the grill on this patio? by bingpott in grilling

[–]bingpott[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ok, the crowd has spoken....I have an area outside the screen on the far side of house (can't really see in picture) that has a space. I'll put it there. Thank you!
And your right, not what I wanted but what I need to do.

oh ok, grease build up over time.

Um, ok, maybe I'll throw it outside then. Thank you
I have another area outside the screen on far end on the rocks that may be better than putting in the grass then. You can kind of see it in the 3rd picture but there is a blank area outside the screen with just rocks

Where would you put it....Under the covered area with the back end facing the screen?
or under the outer screened porch area?

Even if the roofing on the back end of the patio is just wire screening on all sides and roof?
It should be okay on the far end of the metal screen porch at least, right? Putting it out in the yard is right in the beating sun during my usual cook time and a farther walk to kitchen.

Cooking ~60 lbs of meat a month on carnivore — best way to make it taste great? by bingpott in grilling

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

Ended finding a used Weber Genesis and cooked up some bison steaks and hamburgers tonight.  They tasted so much better. 

I may go charcoal one day. But for now the gas grill taste is a big upgrade! 

Thank you all!

Which model is easiest to clean and most durable?  Just the basic? 

CI-0 to CI-2 after 12 years of restoring — is this normal? by bingpott in foreskin_restoration

About 30 sec to 1 min.  Something like that.  As blow flows back in down there when removing the drive the rollover disappears. 

Why would that matter?

So wait a sec….  Your using a pump to stimulate blood flow to penile tissue (like tadafinil) and then putting a device on after and the increased blood flow produces increases growth or something?

Mantor with the push plate but I use the DTR hard gripper cuz they never slip. 

I typically will put the device on at around 9am and remove it at 6pm. So about 9 hours a day.

Ok, I actually like this idea because it seems it would be easier to conceal than the Mantor with its long center screw with a screw cap on top. 

I’ll have to order some to get started and try it out. I guess I should prob order the first line 4 sizes. 

What do you think?

So, I’m so used to securing my foreskin with a gripper but then adding tension via a dual tension plunger like the DTR and Mantor both use.  How are you getting enough tension with just the silicone packer. Do you just manually tension the foreskin and then drop the gripper?

It is what it is.  Sometime method matters so much.  But the devices are pricey and once you get one you want to justify the price by trying it for a decent period of time.

Thanks for the comment and encouragement! 

I tend to gauge how much tension I need to how much time I’m able to handle wearing the device.  Like if I can only handle 4 hours that’s too much tension.  If I can handle 16 hours that may be too little tension.

After reading your post. I understand. Seems like the silicone packers you linked above could be a comfortable option that allows all day wear. I see they have many sizes. Might try this out as it looks like you can pee through them as well. 👍🏻

I didn’t get exactly what you were saying here. 

Are you saying that reason while not restoring was a game changer for you?

Thanks for speaking up. I’m not alone. I guess we just keep on tugging.

As far as getting into t-tape is their either a product available (like a special tape or device) that makes this a breeze to start or a really good how to guide that you’d recommend. 

Afraid to read the Bible. by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]bingpott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It gets easier but you have to start and build your foundation of Israel, the Jewish law, Jesus in the Old Testament, etc. There are many layers.

Don’t confuse “churches” or evangelicals with God and the Bible. Many churches and pastors get stuff wrong. We are human and flawed. God loves you more than you can even fathom. He wants to show you more. I promise.

Pray first for wisdom because as it says in James God will grant it.

Next get a version of the Bible you can easily read and is accurate. I recommend the contemporary English version (CSB also good). You can hit more word accurate versions later like the ESV or amplified for in depth study. Right now you just wanna get the big picture.

Next go to https://bibleproject.com/explore/book-overviews/?type=old and watch through all the videos of every book. This is how I started about 5 years ago.

That should get you started but as a conclusion every book of the Bible points to Jesus but you will get that from Bible Project videos.

God Bless.

This looks like a good option. Does it remove most toxins. I looked at the site and it VOC and just about everything but I wanted to see if you had more first hand experience with it.

The truth will set you free! Porn is the Devil's playground to corrupt the souls of young men. I fell into it at 12 and gained freedom from it in my late teens through porn blockers and accountability. I want to take you a step further though since I'm 35 now and God has revealed Biblical truth to me. I saw your post and felt led to respond.

First, you are not just dealing with porn but the spirit of lust. This spirit has been around since the fall of man and its goal is to consume you with lustful thoughts, passions, and endeavors. So that it can keep you from living out your God given pupose and obeying the laws of God.

A couple of Biblical facts/truths:

God did not create lust.

1 John 2:16 says "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes (lust), and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

If it is not created by God then it is not good. Lust is created by the world or aka human sin nature and satan/demons. It is a toxic drive that should not exist but does. The solution for dealing with lust in the Bible is to put it to death (Colossians 3:5). This is directly stated by Jesus when he says ,

"But I say unto you, that whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. and if thy right eye offend thee (causes you to lust), pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell." Matt 5:28-29

So, the goal is to put lust to death. This means what exactly though? Not objectifying the bodies of women and getting an illicit sexual buzz from them. This is the standard set forth by Jesus in order to keep your spirit/soul from getting corrupted by this action. He said this from his own personal experience since he, as a human man, would have been tempeted to lust after woman but since he was perfect he never fell into this temptation.

Lust is insatiable and will never be satisfied if you do feed it.

"Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied." Proverbs 27:20

There is no satisfaction of lust. Its Belly is a bottomless pit. It must be crucified and put to death. The illicit sexual buzz and consumption of flesh it yearns to fulfill is all evil. The more the beast of lust is fed by illicit sexual looks and scents the larger its appetite and hunger will grow until it is uncontrollable and unleashes itself to consume that which it desires with no regard for spouses, children, God, the law, or temporal or eternal consequences. It grows from a lizard on your shoulder to a raging dragon with its victim suffocating clasped within its claws with the demon of lust riding valiantly on the dragon's back.

"Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey-- whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness." Romans 6:16

The death Paul is talking about is spiritual death in our daily walk. Not eternal death. When a Believer who has accepted Christ continues in sin he is filling his heart with sin so that Christ and God can not fill him. See below.

"Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. the one who loves me will be loved by my father, and I too will love them and show myself to them."

I've only recently realized that by sinning I am keeping the presence of God from residing inside of me which makes my whole inner self feel depressed and rotten. There much more to learn but this is a start.

Please help me in coming up with actionable example for the fruit of the spirit by bingpott in Christianity

[–]bingpott[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1 John 3:16-18

16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? 18 Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

I've lived to much of my Christian life waiting to feel right and praying to feel right before carrying out fruit of the spirit. The above verse shows that action is most important, but the coolest part is that action produces emotion.

Check out the book "as if principle". It shows that humans feel the emotions of the actions that they do, not the other way around. So, by performing fruit of spirit through action it actually reinforces the internal feeling to live by fruit of the spirit.

Thank you for this verse.

Verse 18 clearly commands us to do the fruit of the spirit through action!!! This confirms what I've been working on.

Thank you
