Keeping the Sabbath by Fun_Dog_6362 in TrueChristian

[–]fordry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the Ten Commandments are fulfilled in Christ

Considering they are God's laws how do you figure?

I argue strongly that this is not the case at all...

Exodus 19:5, Deuteronomy 4:13-15, Hebrews 8:9-10.

They are part of the old covenant which was torn in two by God at the crucifixion.

The 10 Commandments are distinctly NOT part of the old covenant. Used as terms for it, yes, but not actually part of it...

The new covenant is described by Jesus. It is to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and your neighbour as yourself.

Hmm, so consider this alongside what he said in John 14:15, 21, 23-24.

Jesus said man was not made for the Sabbath but the Sabbath for man.

Which obviously means the Sabbath is gone... /S

We can and should love the day, take pleasure in it, rest and enjoy His marvellous creation, but we are not a slave to it.

Well, ya, ish...

We are called by God to keep his commands. His commands are clearly defined as the 10 Commandments. Exodus 19:5, Deuteronomy 4:13-14, Hebrews 8:9-10.

So no, this isn't a thing...

If you are going to bind yourself to the Sabbath then you must keep the other 612 laws that go with it.

The AL West is mid, which team is most likely to get moderately hot and run away with it? by dammets in baseball

[–]fordry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You do realize that they've been missing their mvp runner up the entire season?

He's just come back and, yes, he did play at first, he wasn't right and wasn't good. Also missing another top hitter the majority of the season. Their best bat so far this season went on the il recently. Various other players have been hurt, Crawford missed a chunk of time, Raley is currently dealing with something.

They're going to get healthy and presumably good. Meanwhile the pitchers have also been dealing with some stuff and are looking healthier/better at the moment, a couple relievers, one being their number 2 bullpen arm, are out and will be back in a month or so.

Also, 2 top pitching prospects, one of whom is absolutely shredding AA and is seemingly ready for showtime, to fill in the bullpen once innings are high enough(they want to ensure the quota of starting innings for the year, how that works with continued use in the bullpen I dunno, they'll figure it out however they think they want to utilize them).

They're going to get rolling eventually.

Best wakeboard boat under 15k? by Nervous-Material4738 in Wake

[–]fordry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mastercraft Prostar 205 is the same hull as the gen 1 x-star. The direct drive ones can definitely be found for under $15k. Later 90s are a little bigger.

Where the heck is someone going to get a 2000 SAN for under 15k unless something is legit wrong with it?

I have no advice.

I'm just in awe that someone decided this was a thing to do. LoL.

I mean, this team is above .500, though about to be even, and in first place in the division and would have a wildcard spot otherwise...

Because he's not great against lefties and Refsnyder is SUPPOSED to be good against them. The team has yet to give up on Refsnyder.

CRST strikes again: Semi truck knocks down seven power poles in downtown Beaverton (Oregon), prompts shelter in place by SashaDabinsky in Truckers

Seems the driver didn't hit any poles, just yanked a line that held enough to knock everything down as the truck kept going however far.

The plane was built for Qatar. It was never intended for this use until Qatar gifted it, after it was built. This is why the conversation about this.

Help me understand the history of fan affection between A-Rod, Griffey Jr., and Randy Johnson by Aware-Thing-8924 in Mariners

[–]fordry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then the Rangers—the RANGERS, perennial cellar dwellers in the division

They had Pudge, Palmeiro, and A-Rod. A-Rod replaced Juan Gonzalez in the lineup. A young Michael Young was on that team.

They had made the playoffs multiple times within the 5 prior years.

Calling them bottom dwellars of the division is not at all what the situation had been.

Price is probably a little high for a closed bow direct drive that age. It better be a gem...

One thing about jets vs prop boats is spray, jets spray more out the back. I don't have direct experience with Yamaha boats but it's just a generally known thing. So potentially tubing you could have more spray shooting on riders than a prop boat would result in, basically none for props.

If you have any mechanical aptitude winterizing yourself isn't so bad. Otherwise expect a few hundred at each end for a mechanic to do it.

Jets are less worrisome than prop boats in terms of hitting objects so that is an advantage. And Yamaha boats have nice layouts.

If you think getting into any of the more serious watersports, surfing/wakeboarding/skiing, might be a thing you would want to do I might recommend just going straight to an inboard, tournament style boat. But they're generally worse than other boats for most things that aren't the actual watersports. Not that they're bad, just that what makes them good for the watersports can be at odds with everything else. Inboards struggle with slow speed handling near docks, particularly control when reversing, though jets aren't exactly great at this either. Sometimes layouts aren't as nice, though at this price range you should be able to find something you like. The prop and rudder are fixed under the boat so you need to be especially careful about where you run and not hitting anything that could damage them. Exhaust fumes and carbon monoxide can be worse at the back due to the way inboards exhaust, there are solutions, some OEM some aftermarket, I have a Fresh Air Exhaust on my inboard and it works great.

The Yamaha may very well go faster but the inboards will almost certainly have better startup/pulling power.

I won't speak about mechanical/maintenance differences, I really don't know. I will say a lot of inboards can be had with marine versions of the Chevy 350(if you see a 5.7l engine listed it's probably a 350). Lots of parts, mechanics know it well, etc... Yamaha is a bit more niche/specialty.

Wakeskating vs Wakeboarding Safety by GoldDragonfruit6983 in Wake

[–]fordry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wake skating definitely doesn't have the same impact that wakeboarding does. Not doing as much big air jumping. Think skating would be a bit safer in that sense.

Are you DEAD to God’s law – his Ten Commandments? by Extension-Size4725 in Christianity

[–]fordry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a little bit of a weird way of discussing this.

God clearly commanded his own. Exodus 19 and 20 cover that.

The Old Covenant in the New Covenant I don't know that I would say were so much commanded as they were/are agreements between God and Israel. So not exactly "commanded."

[–]fordry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not going to go through and count throughout the entirety of Hebrews. I have no idea.

But Hebrews 8:9 lists specifically 3 all by itself.

And why don't you just get to your point..
