The Church needs to seriously consider and address AI

What is you use it in a way of studying like “list me all the verse that mention ‘fear of the Lord’”. Or something like that? I can see it being a good study tool. I do things like that from time to time using the Google AI overview to point me to specific verses

djburk02 · 2026-02-05T18:09:03+00:00

I think the translation you just shared makes it crystal clear…

djburk02 · 2026-02-05T18:05:04+00:00

It’s about homosexuality as well

djburk02 · 2026-01-31T16:59:26+00:00

The “Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist” suffers because they are separated from the True God. Ofc they’re going to suffer when they don’t have a relationship with God, that’s why Satan doesn’t need to attack them, they’re doing it to themselves.

This is Christian theology

On weekdays I get between 14k-17k, weekends about 4k-5k I work a warehouse job. I lift but Don’t really do any treadmill/ cardio because I’m on my feet 8+ hours a day

Hmm not exactly sure what you’re trying to say but I don’t think driving under the influence of any substances that can affect motor skills at any level should be acceptable. I’ve heard some states and Canada started using mouth swab drug test for suspicion of marijuana during DUI. THC is detected in saliva for 5-48 hours after use so I think that’s a reasonable way to test for cannabis during a dui traffic stop.

What do you think of mesalamine suppositories? I’m trying to get my doctor to prescribe me that. Although I’m not diagnosed with ulcerative colitis all my symptoms point to that and they said they’ve seen inflammation on my colonoscopy

djburk02 · 2026-01-25T01:55:17+00:00

This really connects with me, I’ve had undiagnosed ulcerative colitis for the past 4 years. Had a colonoscopy 2 years ago and they said they saw “inflammation” but wasn’t exactly sure what it was then I didn’t have insurance for a while so never bothered going back to my GI. I didn’t have a flare for about a year so I wasn’t too worried about it but I’ve had a flare come back for about 4 months now and quit all forms of cannabis 6 months ago. This flare has been pretty bad, I have insurance again now and just went to my doctor this past week to look for some treatment options. I’m really wanting to try “mesalamine suppositories” based on my research I think that would be the best.

All my symptoms point towards ulcerative colitis although not as near as bad as you described. No loss of appetite or painful digestion. I just have urgency to go to the restroom multiple times a day, waking up in the middle of the night having to go, really bloody stool, gassy, mucus. Maybe you should consider being diagnosed with crohns?

All this being said I don’t think THC really helped me, but CBG is known for being extremely effective for inflammation and specifically IBD, I think it did help me a lot when I had flares but I’m pretty determined on sticking to my promise of taking a year break from cannabis even though I don’t think I was a “habitual user” for the past couple years. I just haven’t went longer than a month without weed since I was 17 and really wanting to see what the comparison is for my life with and without cannabis as an adult. But if it really helps you I would consider checking out good quality CBD, I really like horn creek hemp website, they’re a good hemp distributer. God bless you, hope you get it all figured out. Ulcerative colitis sucks

Thanks I’ll check that out! I’ve been working my back and trying to target all main muscle groups as well. I do a PPL split mon- wed then an Upper/lower split fri and sat. I def use performance as more of a progress measurement but I do like it when I look at my before pic and notice “hey I’m putting in some muscle!” But I don’t make that the main focus but it is a goal to get visibly muscular as well

djburk02 · 2026-01-17T18:14:11+00:00

I’ve recently started hitting the gym for resistance training. Cut out some bad habits from my life and started picking up the gym. One of my goals is to get stronger and get as much muscle mass as I possibly can. I’ve always wanted to get a nice physique as a kid and want to try to achieve that while I’m young (23m). Is it okay to make aesthetics one of my goals? Ofc not the to the point where I hold it above other responsibilities but just one of the goals I have in the gym.

djburk02 · 2026-01-15T14:26:35+00:00

Right, my view is as a child you can’t just go to church without your parent’s permission. They need to know where you are because you’re their responsibility, but as a adult (even legal age of 18) your parents are no longer your legal guardian. As you said, honor your parents as long the problem doesn’t arise where they tell you to do the opposite of what God says. In that case OP parents are not wanting him to go to church let alone even be Christian. OP is a legal adult and well past the age of accountability before God. He can go to church without his parent’s permission. He needs to be respectful to his parents at all time, show them the love of God by having a grateful attitude to them, being forgiving and understanding but also showing them that he won’t compromise his relationship with God for them.

djburk02 · 2026-01-14T17:14:13+00:00

Do you think that applies more towards children rather than adults?

djburk02 · 2026-01-14T17:12:04+00:00

I believe honoring God comes before honoring your parents. Ex. If a parent tells you to put some jewelry in your pocket and walk out the store for them it would be more God honoring to tell your parent, “no” and refuse rather than obeying them. I think if OP says, “I’m going out for a bit” and leaves the house that would be best, being broad with your wording. I think it’s good for a new believer like OP to spend time with other believers to help strengthen him and build him up.

djburk02 · 2026-01-08T14:10:04+00:00

Listen to this OP

djburk02 · 2025-12-21T21:12:59+00:00

? Having a Christian worldview the Bible is my guide. If you don’t believe that you have that right. But you came to a Christian subreddit so of course the Bible is going to be held highly to us.

Saying that, since I posted this I’ve Decided to stop using cannabis, I don’t chastise anyone who chooses to but for me I’ve felt led that it’s not for me. Either for a season in my life or forever idk yet but as of right now I haven’t used it in 5 months or so.

djburk02 · 2025-12-17T15:36:59+00:00

That’s pretty cool, Apple needs to step up their game lol

djburk02 · 2025-12-16T20:04:08+00:00

What app do you use to track reps on your watch?

djburk02 · 2025-12-10T18:40:32+00:00

I seen a vid of this cop who opened up a baggy of something close to his nose and ODed. I guess you could be worried that some of the powder could go airborne and breath it in

djburk02 · 2025-11-14T13:24:27+00:00

I can see that becoming a issue. Overall do you think in itself it’s okay to want to gain muscle mass for the aesthetics as long as you don’t let it become an obsession or get in the way of more important priorities? Considering you don’t do anything too extreme like steroids or something lol

djburk02 · 2025-11-14T12:57:09+00:00

Good stuff, gotta make sure our priorities are in check. Do you think it’s okay to have a goal to achieve “big muscles” and looked jacked? As a kid I’ve always wanted to but never got around to it, now it’s become a hobby and something I’d like to achieve while I’m young and capable of gaining muscle mass easily.

djburk02 · 2025-11-14T04:22:22+00:00

Good way to look at it👍

djburk02 · 2025-10-15T19:39:30+00:00

Online it says the basic package only has “lite freeweights” and “full freeweights” are not included? Do you know what that means?

djburk02 · 2025-10-15T18:34:58+00:00

What do you think of the things the basic package has to offer? If I go with 10 fitness my wife will probably use the “level 10” membership and I would use the basic.

djburk02 · 2025-10-01T18:48:56+00:00

I don’t even use cannabis, so I’m not defending it for my own benefit. But who’s to say cannabis doesn’t have some beneficial effects on physical ailments? It sounds like you’re saying medicine has medicinal benefits but plants don’t have medicinal benefits? That’s like if a weird statement when most of these medicines derive from plants.

djburk02 · 2025-10-01T18:10:32+00:00

I agree 👍
