@grok@CS1_1SC@JustAnIranianIr What are the odds of 'niiko' being used to name this exact dance in the video given the mechanical nature of the movements and the implicit message of the dance with 0 arabic influence when arabic is the dominant language for prayer due to Somalia's Muslim background.
@Pastmora FIRM FOUNDATION
&
SAME GOD
are the 2 hand in hand songs, that carried me when I was hurting while nobody knew what I was going through.
The songs that brought absolute peace & tranquility at a time that should've been the most chaotic time of my life.
Glory to the Most High.
@TevinMacharia No question need be asked. He has answered them all.
I would say, “Thank You for always searching for this lost and unworthy sheep, for considering him worth seeking even in his unworthiness, and for choosing death to redeem his transgressions.”
@joeymottz@Biblicalman The New Testament writings arose within the early Church and were later recognized together as canon. So “the Church came first, then the Bible” is not true as stated.
@joeymottz@Biblicalman True until the Church starts crossing into redefining under the guise of interpretation or better understanding.
As for who came first, the writings that make up the Old Testament including the Torah, Psalms, Prophets, & other Hebrew Scriptures existed centuries before the Church
“Jesus opened his entire ministry with one word.”
I lived for a time under a weaker version of it than He meant.
What He actually called for goes far deeper.
And it rewrites the foundation most of us are still standing on...
@nicolenmckee@TevinMacharia I think God reveals Himself to those who seek Him. He is Truth, the way and the life. Those who profess and submit to God will recognize Truth and can tell if the post is there to genuinely glorify God or for clicks.
@nicolenmckee@TevinMacharia I agree somethings should remain private but Who decides this and why? When something that can genuinely impact others in a positive way compared to the other consumable media, I argue it is better to share and let the message reach those it is meant for. This post is testimony.
@SA07921@PinerosStephen@RealShahriqKhan You isolated a consequence from the conditions that produce it, then treated that consequence as though it defines the whole system. That is analogous to rendering a conclusive judgment about the universe from a grain of sand.
