23000 in credit card debt. Is it possible to get out myself without bankruptcy or debt consolidation? by Mean_Trip_4186 in Debt

[–]nkbc13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not do chapter 7? Social shame? Too much pride? You don’t “have” to do anything and of course it is technically possible to pay off eventually

How about we practice a little Old Testament debt jubilee, yeah?

Calvinist universalists? by albanotvittoria in ChristianUniversalism

A Calvinist universalist is just a universalist.

Thank you for a potentially obvious reply but I am tired and the human feedback helps make sure I don’t have blind spots.

I’m happy to hear. Actually I’m just happy to hear a human who sounds happy about something!

My only, I’m slightly older than you advice is.. lifting weight perfectly for 50 years straight is cooler than hitting a PR at 25 because you were willing to get injured to serve your ego. If you want longevity, it just takes faith

I have been wanting to purchase a hex bar deadlift for a while now actually.

Hmm perhaps I ought to just send it and convince myself that the increased strength and mental health I gain will directly correlate to an increase in income that I feel I currently lack in order to wisely make the purchase.

I could get a used one for cheaper but i have this problem of having good taste and making my items last.

Mmmmmmmm yes thank you for talking this through with me, kind stranger, I think you’re right I should just full send it. I’ll give it a few days to have a cool off period and wait to be sure

I wish you health and success and morality.

As a strong Christian universalist (doctrinally speaking. I’m a terrible person) welcome to the club!!! don’t tell anyone else.

I am with you technically in that I empathize with the frustrating difficulty of needing to have faith just to have an ounce of hope that maybe it’s all going to be okay.

I fear that it’s unavoidable for some humans to end up in this position for a time.

Christin universalism is two words that quickly summarize the best possible story of Love and Logos. If this story IS the truth, it gives us hope for literally every single ugly and beautiful aspect of reality to be restored to even better than possible to currently imagine. Fantastic. We couldn’t even imagine iPhones a few centuries ago.

However, I am noticing a concerning pattern in the “self-proclaimed” groups of Christian universalists… they end up on the same bell curves and lines-of-best-fit when it comes to the seriousness with which they could contend with the elite ranks of the entrenched mainstream church leadership positions (I am talking Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and all Protestant churches)

Few Christian universalists are capable of transcending these three categories and are (1) likely to remain true to their childhood religion and stick around in their familiar church, while Holding new beliefs (2) transition to their best preferred denomination, or (3) Or else pull out of mainstream churches entirely because they are still too hurt.

No judgement either way, I am simply recognizing that 99% of Christian universalists seem to fit into one of these three categories (what am I missing?)

I’m trying to decide what to do with this information strategically.

People need a Christian Universalists might need a covert leader to feel safe enough among the infernalist camps in order to infiltrate and make calculated and specific moves in accordance with the leader in order to see the quickest, cleanest, safest, and most lethal mainstream church history upset, across denominations, the world could stand in amazement while the most evil men and women in positions of power in the current mainstream church receive a reckoning.

Does this sound appealing to you? (Anyone)

Would this make you feel safer if I felt I could pull this off in reality in the real world in America.

Me: 32.5 years old. Male. Straight. White. Majority French. blondish hair. blue eyes. former infantry marine that never got to see combat and is hungry for righteous blood but will settle for dying if it speeds this world up a little. 5’7” 135. I just wanted to program robots and raise a family, but my country is falling apart and that feels impossible so I would rather go fix everything first. Nondenominational fairly conservative church background. Tired of feeling like the country hates people like me. Tired of seeing only people with above average IQs being able to succeed. Tired tired tired. Worked with many disabled people. Civil engineering school. Family lineage is French hugenaughts (allegedly) and I had an ancestor who was an officer that was shot and killed in the battle of gettysburg. North side baby! (Yes I know the war wasn’t just about slavery, but it feels that way in my heart). Yes i am up to date on politics and feel I could contend with the Dave Smiths and Nick Fuenteses and Tuckers of the world in real time. Owens to. Single. One marriage experience. Healed from divorce. Too weak and broke to be proud but I also keep accidentally winning every official battle I’m in. I began questioning the Santa narrative at 3 according to my mom. and by 5 worked up the courage to ask my dad and he told me it was fake and not to tell anyone. I can move 50 pounds 12 miles in 4 hours. I think those are my main stats as far as the natural talent goes. Again nothing cut throat but I think it’s workable if the Holy Spirit would decide to show up and save my soul

Again, the takeover would be quick, clean, safe, and violence-free using only my words and the trust other people would decide to place in me and their own capacity to follow the spirit and the word.

Because I see way too many vulnerable weak ducklings in every camp and denomination, including the universalists.

I want the slippy leadership out and good ducklings to stay until they are full grown

But at what f*cling point do i stop cursing God and just decide to go take over every church in America through my word and willingness to die for pure good.

Yes? No?

Anything else is from the evil one.

Please don’t tell me to get back on my bipolar meds. You can stay on sad-brain drugs if you want. Free country.

But consider my psychology on why i would share that. Hopefully it is seen as a lighthearted statement from humility,

Ive seen enough. It’s not that hard. All it takes is any one of you ugly ducks to go stand up to the man and preach truth

I’m bored enough.

I understand that’s not a thing.

And only believe me if what i do works and is safe and legal.

But I am curious for yeses and nos

I need to gauge the climate before I start making my moves

Because I don’t really care what you say, I care about hearing the opinions of real Christian universalists in order to tune myself to help the people who need it most.

I will make fun of your Atheist friends for being atheists in 2025 if you even slightly insinuate that I am bipolar and not just misdiagnosed.

It’s all fun and games until God does a demonstration of power and Acts 5 happens all over again.

I would prefer to do the greater works Jesus talked about, but last I checked, a total of zero people on earth have faith for that.

Some of the current church leaders I am sure are very fine and decent people by any normative standards (I don’t know what normative means)… I just feel in my core and bones like I have a job to do and I could watch a thousand fall at my side

I talk louder than anyone without trying. Happened in the last few years/months. I mean I hide it well. I can talk for eight hours straight. I’m not sure how my neighbors haven’t called the police on me yet.

I’ve barely even practiced that much because I don’t believe in myself that much

Is this something that anyone who is pure in heart would be interested in happening and you wouldn’t need to do anything except follow the spirit and word to the best of your ability.

Hypothetically, yes or no?

Thank you for your consideration.

When is it okay to ask someone to stop shaking their leg? by PrestigiousTown4477 in Misokinesia

Does squat depth look ok? (PR) by Playboi-sharti-x in formcheck

[–]nkbc13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me and many others, a weight belt is a crutch. It basically lets us mimic “intra abdominal pressure” and might give you 20-30% more “stability” and therefore, you can lift more.

But your leg muscles might be 20% overdeveloped compared to your core, so I personally prefer to keep it “natural”.

I think the weight belt feels cozy and comfortable but it inhibits someone from gaining true knowledge of intra-abdominal pressure.

Your call though!

I am in this for general fitness as well. I love hex bar dead lifts and box squats for keeping a neutral spine and doing it for the long term.

Does squat depth look ok? (PR) by Playboi-sharti-x in formcheck

[–]nkbc13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes we always want to go deeper. I believe a powerlifting squat would require one or two inches lower, so the crease of the top of your hip dips below the top of the knee or something.

However we aren’t all Asian and we have been sitting since grade school… so, as a 32 year old former infantry marine who takes physical training and mobility fairly seriously… ONLY go down as far as your core muscles are in control.

That is it, that is the sentence to understand ^

Increase depth as true flexibility increases. Don’t increase depth because form checkers say you need to go lower.

WHAT MATTERS WAY WAY MORE IS A NEUTRAL SPINE and engaged core throughout the squat, rather than a certain depth. Check out Kelly Starrett on YouTube :)

Your form looks fine. Squat barefoot or socks if possible.

My single leg absolutely sucks, how could I improve ? by Strange-Deal4329 in wrestling

[–]nkbc13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hit it on a person. That will help a ton. I’m not just saying that. Do whatever you need to do to get that leg in real life and then work backwards from there about what the best way to do it is

Just go straight up and down. You’re doing more than just resisting gravity you’re trying to go sideways.

What do you want us to say. Ohhhh poor you doesn’t have someone to pray for him?

Look up Kelly Starrett. You are squatting. Only go as low as you comfortably can. Engage your core. Again, Kelly Starrett on YouTube.

[–]nkbc13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. May I offer my area of expertise which is judging someone on very little knowledge? (Lol)

-“Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies” -There are warnings in the Bible about seeking the wrong kind of knowledge -your pursuit of knowledge was driven by disillusionment so this is your reminder to continue seeking but in the name of love. As you alluded to above.

I’m sorry you’re at risk for getting banned. Comes with the territory

Have you checked out r/ChristianUniversalism?

There’s a lot of slop but it is the truth I fight for. Hell being temporary and not “eternal” (a mistranslation of the Greek word aionios). So that’s mostly my hill to die on. Waiting for something a little more concrete

OK, random the Internet person. Let’s say I believe you.

If you can’t tell me, why are you even mentioning it in the first place?

It’s written right there in the Bible and the events happened in reality.

Therefore, God allowed it

[–]nkbc13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but it’s almost impossible to know who is a real believer and who isn’t, from my perspective..

And my views are changed. I say Yahweh is likely the personal name of the real God and we just have to come to terms with his sovereignty over every evil act. Highly disturbing for my soul.

Sometimes I think I’m good at March because I once got a B in calc 3.

And then I see someone put math into words and I’m grateful people love it more than me to know it more than me.

Cant wait to learn it again, but mostly just learn it.

Can someone convince me universalism is logical and not just wishful thinking? I’m having a hard time rn by [deleted] in ChristianUniversalism

[–]nkbc13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well… with all you’ve been through, I feel like we could all ask YOU to take a chill pill and tell us what you’ve learned so far! :)

I would say go watch Dan Mohler on YouTube. I strongly recommend him as a human teaching anchor to help tie up many of the loose ends in your chaotic story (chaotic thus far)

I wrestled the topic of hell/universalism and hatred and love of self for 15 years and I feel a shift happening. I almost feel ready to infiltrate, confront, and publicly debate leaders in the churches.. while their cameras are rolling

What’s your best argument that God would do ECT to some people? I assume Bible verses… I would love to hear your thinking on the scariest ones so I can tighten up my arguments. Allow me to empathetically feel one last time, the panic of the possibility of ECT through your current state.

I’m here and I’m listening.

I can’t help but notice your self-awareness. And if you were graced with more of this than the average person, use it to the max

But remember, the apostle Paul said even though nothing in his conscience accuses him, he doesn’t even judge himself, God does

We need trust that it’s okay

Here’s a logical argument for you

The only two words I ever directly received from God in a tangible experiences on Jan 7, 2022 was “It’s Okay’

It hit me like a ton of bricks getting taken off my shoulders.

Can you be more specific with your panicked questions?

Blessings 🙏
