@1984_nate And then watch them choose the third button: "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the elect (present company excepted, of course), and revealed them to the reprobate."
See it in theaters, see it with your kids, see it for all the joy it can impart to anyone secretly longing to transcend the colourless, hero-less drudgery of our disenfranchised and disconnected moment. We are all you, Adam. 3/3

My @letterboxd review of #MastersOfTheUniverse: https://t.co/wmq18VuhTJ
Pure, unadulterated fun, from beginning to end! Just a live-action cartoon - And I mean that in the very best way imaginable: 1/3
ridiculous, colourful, exuberant, Saturday-morning joy. Bad is deliciously, unapologetically bad, while good is growing up into the best good it can be, and calling up its overawed fans to do the same. 2/3
God didn't craft your suffering, but He'll co-opt it!
God didn't provoke those tears, but He'll surely preserve them!
God didn't enable that wounding, but He'll ennoble it!
He is for you.

And it's not about the Lord being "a gentleman."
It's about a genuinely caring God holding out an open invitation in all sincerity to come and be healed.
Hereβs a little bit of the historic Christian symbolism I pulled from when coming up with my compass design.
Iβm amazed by how much meaning was embedded into everything. Even simple shapes and decorative elements were often designed to communicate deeper theological ideas.
@rootcausesleuth This is how I know there are no modern apostles, because if there were, one of them would have most definitely smitten Joel or Dale with blindness by now, like Paul did to that Bar-Jesus guy.
