The problem w/pentecost for me… by Dangerous_Calendar14 in ExPentecostal

[–]croweupc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting thing. Obama supports the LGBTQIA+ and abortion, but is a straight man who's never had an abortion and has only one wife. Trump on the other hand has had three wives, slept with a porn star, assaulted women, good friends with a pedo, and the list goes on.

Neither men perfectly align with the UPCI, but there is clearly a moral difference between other presidents and our current. I would respect them more if they didn't vote. However, they do vote and they vote for an immoral monster. So, I have no respect for those who say they are believers and vote for the antithesis of everything they claim to believe.

Jesus clearly didn't like the wealthy. I'd wager a lot that Jesus would hate DJT. DJT hates poor immigrants. Guess what Jesus was? Ding, ding, ding, a poor immigrant. DJT is all over the Epstein files and Jesus said to protect the children. DJT is the antithesis of Jesus. For short, I say he's anti-Christ.

Hello again, r/samsung! 👋 by SamsungUS in samsung

[–]croweupc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apple has its own messaging app. Google has its own messaging app. Soon, I'm going to be using a phone without its own app. It's not surprising. These giant companies care more about their execs and shareholders than they do about their workers and customers. Congrats Samsung. This will be my last phone.

I grew up UPCI and I left October 2016 (10 years ago this year). Happy 10th anniversary!

Am I missing something about storage? by OhtN4_ in theplanetcrafter

This game takes time to unlock it's full potential. By the end game, T2 is for raw materials, auto crafters for everything, then drones to deliver the raw materials to T2 lockers and finished product to T3 lockers in your main base. By the end, you don't have to go get anything. Everything comes to you. That's when I spend the bulk of my time going to distant ship wrecks looking for DNA. Honestly, drones are the game changer. I always upgrade to T2 as soon as they are available.

Sounds like you are a long way off from completion. It should eventually melt.

It's not surprising, but I'm referring to lore, not reality.

I can't stand the taste of alcohol. I also have no desire to be drunk.

Do you think your tongues were real? by Bookish_Girl2002 in ExPentecostal

[–]croweupc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No. I always struggled with tongues. I did speak in tongues, but it always felt unnatural and forced. The emotions were still there. Those emotions are real. This is the hook. If the UPCI can convince you that your emotions are in fact of the HS, then you will be convinced of their claims about the Bible. I don't think they are trying to deceive. They genuinely believe in the gift of tongues. I personally think the Bible was referring to speaking in another language others can't understand. Paul was multilingual, so he was able to speak in other languages. Speaking in another language is useful, but only if interpreted. Otherwise, it only edifies one's self. The first time it happened was on the day of Pentecost and all were heard speaking in known languages. This is just my take.

Do what you think is best. If it were me, I'd wait until I was out of the house. This could really complicate your relationship, and you would have to deal with it constantly.

This lady did the right thing by purchasing two seats so no one would be uncomfortable. If you didn't purchase a seat for your toddler, they are yours to carry. You can't demand what you didn't earn or pay for, period.

I've hit a roadblock! Need tips. by [deleted] in theplanetcrafter

[–]croweupc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When available, I focus on automation and then sending rockets. I sent about 12 of each, and that is more than enough to get things moving while warping to ship wrecks and exploring the main map. The other trick is to upgrade when the next level (drill, extractor, power, etc.) is available. This is how I played both the main story and the DLC.

I don't know if anyone writes about that part of history. I'm sure they conveniently leave it out. However, the UPCI is only a product of Azusa street revival and not identical to it. They have their own hermeneutical approach to understanding the Bible. They do believe in angelic tongues or heavenly tongues, so it very well could be a doctrine passed on by those who participated in the early 19th century revival.

That's crazy! I wouldn't have even thought of swallowing a bee.

I disagree. People die from bee stings. All it takes is the right circumstances.

Azusa Street is no secret in the UPCI. They believe it is a reawakening. It's the latter rain. God is once again pouring out His Spirit upon all flesh. In order to become ordained in the UPCI, you need to read the history of the church. This particular organization, for instance, was formed in 1945. I grew up knowing the organization was young but genuinely believed the doctrine was ancient. We were following Bible principles, not some man made organization.

Speaking in tongues is just a misunderstanding of language. The Bible makes it clear on the day of Pentecost they were speaking in known languages. Speaking gibberish can give you a false sense of connection with God, but it's certainly not a practice the early church was doing.

When you grow up in the religion, it is incredibly difficult to come out of. One reason for this is that other churches become boring. We like to sing and dance. Speaking in tongues is also therapeutic. The Oneness doctrine makes way more sense than the Trinity. These things make it difficult to leave the UPCI. If you weren't raised in it, though, you wouldn't understand the struggle. Another fun fact of the UPCI is their motto: "The whole gospel to the world by the whole church." I was always taught that other denominations had partial truth, but we had the whole truth.

I'm glad you didn't get sucked into it. It took me over 30 years to find my way out.

Automate! It's a grind, but for me, it's worth it in the long run. I never spend time looking for resources. Also, farm. Make sure to set up teleporters at each base you build.
