@JoelWBerry These people need to read The Proper Distinction Between Law and Gospel, by C.F.W. Walther.
Socialism is forced distribution by law and threats.
Christian charity is a natural response (like a fruit tree bearing fruit) to Jesus saving me.
@nejatian My brother and I played Halo 3 when we were in high school, and we would steal the other team's flag, but then just run circles around the map, not even trying to score.
We called it "victory laps." We'd be laughing until we cried.
I'm looking forward to more Kaz victory laps!
@JamesDitto12@BillArnoldTeach@Radar1599 That would be the eight in the Ark who were saved through (δι') water. The water of the flood which washed away all the evil and sin of Noah's generation.
Corresponding to this...
Baptism now saves you. By guaranteeing you a clean conscience before God (sin washed away).
@SipsWithSerra Perhaps the people who were standing around while the Messiah was being killed had terrible theology and practice in other areas in their lives as well.
@rabois @TheTruthHurtsHQ @nejatian Problem is we don't have patience any more. We literally have lost the capacity to wait for something good. So obnoxious.
@nejatian All y'all who are betting on this company: this has to go both ways. Be kind and respectful in your patience. They're stepping out on a limb trusting us with a new way. Let's make it succeed.
@nejatian The first time I opened the app, the map did not work. It would not show me streets or anything with nobility to zoom in or out.
I closed it and came back to it 6 hours later and then it worked.
