Okay, so it is important with Scripture to understand it in the context which it is written. Looking at Galatians 4:10 by itself, it is very easy to come off with the idea that observing time, holidays, or stuff like that is evil. But you see Paul wrote that quote in a letter to Galatians who were still observing the the Old Covenant and its festivals. (Hence the days, months, seasons and years.) That quote was for the Galatians who were not adhering to New Covenant, but I adhere to the New Covenant so using that quote on me doesn't really work.
#Debunked
True, Galatians was written to those observing the New Covenant....but...it is about MORE than that. If you read it, you will find that it is addressed to the Church, addressing those issues, and a few others. Don't you think it would be more specific if it mean just the Jewish festivals? And are you saying that verse doesn't apply to us? (because we are not trying to go back to the Old Covenant, {as claimed})
What? That quote was written to the Galatians that were still doing the Old Covenant after the New one was Established. So St. Paul wrote that quote in a letter to them to exhort them to adhere to the New Covenant. You can look it up. I don't know, St. Paul may not have felt the need to be more specific since in the days he wrote it there was no other way to interpret it. That verse applies only to those that are not adhering to the New Covenant. It doesn't apply to me because I adhere to the New Covenant like I said.
{JAMMERS! -Steffanie- ONLY!}Ori and the Blind Forest is the most awesome game I've ever played and it has one of the most awesome soundtracks ever. Its rated E so nothing to worry about.
Nah, I only sing in church, but even then I can't sing like I used to because I hurt my vocal chords.
Yeah, but different views open a ravine that can easily get larger and larger with little effort.
I already got that idea from my own perceptions, but I'd go a little further than that.
You thought I should know why the conversation degenerated. And I didn't remember because it didn't make any sense.
{JAMMERS! -Blade Caster- ONLY!}I sing all the time, just to songs, and lots of stuff like that. Oh, there's nothing really wrong with arguing, as long as it's worthwhile. Well, yeah. She's pretty cool, sometimes a little......demanding. JK.
I thought you'd know based off of memory because it was not very long ago.
{JAMMERS! -Stephanie- ONLY!} Neat. That would kill my vocal chords though. Arguing wears me down and I get edgy like an over-sharpened knife. Everyone's annoying in their own way to some extent, so that doesn't make much of a difference. I've noticed she never uses tongue faces though.

Ah, you think a Bible verse doesn't apply to you! Paul seemed disgusted with the idea of keeping "holidays" and festivals and such.

I did not remember because what you said did not make sense to me, so I thought we were talking about something else that I had forgotten.
{JAMMERS! -Blade Caster- ONLY!} lol Maybe I have strong vocal cords. Eh, Arguing can exhaust me at the end of a day, but by morning I can argue again. Nah. I think emojis are stupid, don't know why I use them. And Tweed and Sam also think so, so don't expect them too.

Guys guys guys
Best not to discuss religion in depth on the boards. It's one of the three taboo subjects (along with politics and the Great Pumpkin). I suggest you cut it off now before the mods say something. The Protestant and Catholic interpretations of the Bible are extremely different in spots so youll never end up agreeing on this.
I vote yes. I definitely think we'll be finding out some important stuff about her which will explain anything that some folks think is unbelievable about her.
In unbelievable stuff...do you mean like the fact that she is a Skywalker?
Maybe... But more so that I think she's the Chosen One, not Anakin. I don't think bringing balance to the Force means destroying the Sith, or bringing it down to the same numbers of Jedi and Sith, as some have guessed. I think it means restoring the Jedi to their roots, or starting a new order based on a more balanced interpretation of the Force, and I think Rey will do this. It's even hinted at in the trailer. "Light... Darkness... A balance."
Yeah, I think that it really depends upon what you go into the theatre expecting. It's very different from Godzilla... Kong is, as I said, a fun film. It's terribly memorable, or really amazing, or anything like that, but if you go in looking for a fun way to spend a couple hours with some monster thrills then you'll probably get what you expect. That's generally what I expect from Monster films, so I had fun while I watched it. As for the characters, I can definitely understand where both sides were coming from. Most of the characters were incredibly dull and didn't have very much to them, including the two 'main' characters, played by Hiddleston and Larson. However, there's two or three characters which are VERY interesting (at least to me) and they blow away the characters in Godzilla. Jackson and Reilly definitely have the standout performances.
Ooh, neat. I'll probably get it on DVD as I did with the LEGO Movie. Nerdy references are definitely my type of humor, so I'll probably really like it.
Ah, okay. I will definitely see Kong: Skull Island sometime. Probably wait for when it's in Redbox. Honestly the thing I'm most excited to see in it is the post-credits scene, because Godzilla.
That's fair. The Post-Credit scene wasn't too amazing, though. Didn't show too much.
Mhm. Plus, as I understand it, the original Godzilla was a bit of an allegory for Nagasaki and Hiroshima, which really doesn't work as well when you put it from an American perspective for so many obvious reasons.
I've definitely seen that one! I don't remember anything about it, but I saw it relatively recently.
That's kind of a misconception, actually. It's more of an allegory for nuclear weapons in general, but was obviously inspired by Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Godzilla was a personification of the dangers of nuclear weapons, being in a film with a strong anti-nuclear message.
It's actually one of the few Godzilla movies I haven't seen! It had the first suitmation monster fight, so it inspired almost ever monster movie since in that aspect. I will likely see the movie tomorrow, I'll let you know my thoughts!
Ah. But it still seems is if it makes a lot more sense from the Japanese perspective than the American one.
Interesting... Who does he fight in it? As I said, I literally remember nothing from it, despite having watched it pretty recently. I can read a summary and we can discuss it after you watch!
Well, why don't you just surprise me, for the most part? Just make it something super nerdy with lots of references to SW, Marvel, Star Trek, LotR, and all those type of stuff... Also put the numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42 in there somewhere.
Can you try and give me a basic design? Like a template?
Well I posted an idea in detail on Brimstone's topic, but it's very complex. I can repost it here or you can look there, but not sure if you'll know how to do it.
Ah. Well, you're certainly better at managing disappointment than I am. I'd probably pout in the corner or something. Is your music online anywhere? I'd love to listen to it, if it is.
Yeah. \ (•◡•) /
Sometimes, but if it gets really bad then I do hang out in corners or dark places. Yeah actually, I make it my browser and its stored in servers, but I haven't actually published any of it yet. If you want, I can type out what my song looks like.
Ah. Does that help, or just trying to get away from people? What do you mean? Like 'da da da dum dum da da la la la da laaaaa'?

I have good memory though so I don't have to re-read it.
