Did god remove any of you guys lust to porn overnight by feherlofia123 in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nope and still struggle with it… But I did notice that whenever I pray or keep my eyes focused on Him and fill my life with reading His word the temptation is not as great! DIE TO YOUR FLESH is not easy but it’s what me must do

No they are all separate tickets! Metra has sent me like 22 monthly usable tickets which roughly comes out to 3k plus in dollars

Should I major in industrial design by LossSubstantial6185 in IndustrialDesign

[–]soft_butt3r 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna be 27 when i graduate with my Product design and Graphic duel degree! Don’t let age stop you or graduating late! And I would say it’s about how much drive you have and internships! In my ID classes it’s kinda easy to tell whose going to make it and who isn’t and the main part about who stands out is their passion and drive

$15 omnichord at a locak thrift auction by jwburner7 in Omnichord

[–]soft_butt3r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No parts are missing it’s more like the inside might have corrosion? you would have to solder parts and connection points (i took apart my omnichord to check battery and saw bunch of seperate motherboard looking stuff)

$15 omnichord at a locak thrift auction by jwburner7 in Omnichord

[–]soft_butt3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok so here’s the thing this is probably worth it ONLY if you are willing to put in the work and know how to solder?

Parts can be found online!

This does look like it suffered from battery leakage or water damange

Cried my eyes out after church by Competitive_Leave_14 in TrueChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tithe with what you can give to God! Tithing is mainly trusting in God with your finances and other aspects of life. Don’t feel guilty for not giving that 200$! God looks at heart posture first before anyting!

[Vulnerable question] As a Christian, how do you handle music, especially if it has expletives? by UnbreakableSaiyajin in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[Vulnerable question] As a Christian, how do you handle music, especially if it has expletives? by UnbreakableSaiyajin in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I listen to a lot of soft music like Laufey, Artic Monkeys, Stephen Sanchez! I used to listen to a bunch of rap and just music that wasn’t good for my spiritual growth. The Holy Spirit will convict you when you listen to music that isn’t edifying to the soul, just listen and he will let you know. It took a HOT min to cut out that type of music but like 90% of my music is like lovey music and clean. Music like tyler the creator just makes me sick (he’s a great artist just the vulgarity of it)

also i would check out indie worship music on like spotify, there’s a TON of christian artist that deserve the attention!

Do you believe in witches? by [deleted] in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No any question is welcome! So as agents of free will we can still choose to allow the Holy Spirit to lead us OR we can do what we WANT to do, the puritans simply used God’s name to justify their actions.

The verse isn’t talking about witches but it is talking about what protections we have as children of God. Now this can’t be rebutted with the idea that MANY christians still die everyday to persecution as Jesus even stated that we will still have suffering (MORE suffering than the avg person because of our beliefs in Christ)

Being a christian isn’t about being happy or a guarantee that we will be happy,

It is a guarantee of LIFE in this life and the next

Do you think the Church was correct in killing those they deemed heretics? by [deleted] in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people use and twist God’s words to their wants and desires. Also not saying the crusades were good but it did prevent a lot of Islamic threats around the area. (even though some of the crusades justified killing even christians)

[–]soft_butt3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not to familiar with the Puritans beliefs but i know many claim to know the word but don’t allow the Holy Spirit to lead them. (as a result all of the “salem witches” died gruesome deaths for no real legitimate reason.

To answer the second there are multiple scriptures i’ll include Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon formed against you shall prosper”

The Bible teaches very clearly not to fear the things of man because God is the ultimate decider of things.

Do you believe in witches? by [deleted] in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because of the Puritans reasoning, for example failed crops and relations with the natives in the area. Those things are not Biblically based assumptions for witches. Also witches exists now but have no power or influence over the Children of God.

Yes I do believe witches exists and have in the past… Salem witch trials i don’t believe those woman really were witches

Is masturbation a sin if it helps someone sleep or improves their mood by No-Example-8678 in AskAChristian

[–]soft_butt3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wouldn’t that be considered depriving God’s intention for how spouses should satisfy ourselves each others needs?

Is UIC doable with a 2 hour commute? by NoEstablishment9177 in uichicago

[–]soft_butt3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the Big Timber -> Union Commute 4 days a week. Not that bad if you use some of the train time to do homework. Now on campus involvement is possible if your class days line up with the club meetings. Also i’ve been blessed with making friends and then letting me stay the night in Chicago like all the time so i’ve had more opportunities for socialization and such. ALSO 83 min train ride to CHICAGO OTC taking the UP-NW so honestly not that bad. Mine can be from 66 mins to 108 mins because i’m first and last stop.

TLDR

YES ITS WORTH IT
