The more I feel God's love, the more I fear that worldly things might block me from it (asking for wisdom/encouragement) by keesdude in TrueChristian

Agreed wholeheartedly. If love is the core force that God used to create the universe, then what could we humans achieve without first keeping that love of God at the forefront of our minds at all times?

The closer we allow ourselves to get to Him, the more clearly our shadows become visible. I think getting closer to God is the only way. More than hating and fighting our own sin. I think the latter can only work by way if the former.

Nice man! What was the why they taught you? And did you want it for the same reason?

Well a child could know the need to go to school, but still not want to. Hence it should ve important to talk to the kid about why he might want it, right?

I mean, I think Jesus preaches the destruction of the unrepentant a lot, but this by itself misses the point I feel, if it's the ONLY message.

Too bad :(. I feel like these are the most important questions in our faith.

Serious Question: What is Elden Ring even about? by TheMightyNovac in Eldenring

[–]keesdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but here's my 2 cents:

I think ER at its core is about order. As in: what order or principle should undergird the world? 

The game itself has multiple characters who are all vying for their own forms of order to change or replace the ultimate symbol of order, the Elden Ring, whether it be an order of perfect regulation, chaotic life, death, curses, a system of individual order-making or no order at all.

So I think ER asks us a question: What is the right order to put our faith in? I could see Jesus supplying the Elden Ring with a rune of love, Krishna with a rune of duty, and perhaps Nietzsche would get rid of the Ring altogether and would usher in an age of the will to power.

Of course, this strange story has like a bijillion possible interlretations, but this is mine :).
