Watching this Tiktok video reminded me of a coworker who approached asking my thoughts about social media influencers and their role in one's Christian walk. One should be mindful to cross examine any person who shares spiritual teachings without providing direct references to the Bible they advocate for. That's why it is wise to be part of an established fellowship as well as participate in a local church that can provide direct answers to life's difficult questions. As for that specific video I found 3 concerns. 1) "The Devil tricks people into performing good for evil. 2) "Every Christian is a Sinner therefore we are not expected to be active participants in His good works." 3) "People will take advantage of Christians and that could lead a believer to unbelief." https://i.ani.me/0382/5524/1000009576.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5562/1000009532.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5561/1000009530.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5560/1000009557.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5556/1000009561.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5547/1000009565.png To answer the first concern, though it's true that the Devil presents himself as a benevolent being it is understood that he cannot to anything genuinely good or righteous. In fact the New Testament is very clear that the Devil is everything God isn't which means everything that he does is pure evil and filled with vanity. Jesus makes clear that evil cannot produce good works therefore doing good isn't playing into his hands. It is considered obedience to our Lord when we are actively participating in Christ's work alongside the God of Abraham! https://i.ani.me/0382/5528/1000009570.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5525/1000009572.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5545/1000009559.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5564/1000009552.png The second concern was that only Christ has the authority to help in His work. Yet Jesus asked Peter to be the rock by which the church is established. Thomas doubted, yet Jesus trusted him to continue spreading the Gospel and helping people in His name. Every saint is a sinner, however that makes them no less necessary in providing help to their community. https://i.ani.me/0382/5606/1000009522.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5604/1000009536.png https://i.ani.me/0382/5593/1000009526.png The third concern to be addressed is the matter of becoming faithless after working tirelessly for the Lord. Again God explains that as practicing Christians we are free to separate ourselves from anyone who has been previously helped, but then returned to their old ways. God doesn't ask the Church or His believers to be doormats. A best way of going about it is to give the abuser of God's assistance a chance to be redeemed through direct engagement by not just oneself, but others of the fellowship. Then after a fair attempt has been documented by the congregation we are free to cut off that individual. As for personal faith that's something only we can control. Through rest and meditation on daily reading of Scripture can we keep our faith strong. https://i.ani.me/0382/5612/1000009554.png

Arguably the first animation. Mostly lost but some restored. Seems to follow a Harlequin trying to impress a lady. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=426mqlB-kAY&t=114s

Been enjoying some photo time in the park. While working on some projects, this duck keeps following me and watching me. Though I do feed the birds with seed and meal worms, I've thrown him bird seed, and he seems to ignore the food. But still following me and watching me do my little photo project at the creek. Very curious.

Some goofy Gen-X male adult (who has a transgender son that wouldn't listen to him), who looks similar to Graham Greene approaching me wearing a Vocaloid t-shirt and punching it saying, "You're gonna marry someone that's not real!", is similar to an angry Christian attacking a Buddhist monk saying, "You're worshipping a false god!" Jesus would do the same thing as what my uncle's coworker wished he did toward that goofy Gen-X guy. Or like Moe telling Bill Clinton to get back to work while Bill Clinton told him, "Make me!" https://youtu.be/6LBc7ObmgTw?si=jwe7bVpN5QGgvrwZ

I finally added iOS support for my game! I got it up and running on my Iphone. It's so cool that it's finally happening. Now I can just walk around and show my game anywhere.

A question for those who care. Does anyone here still use original gameboys to play gameboy games? Not GBA per say, primarily stand gameboy and gameboy color is acceptable as well. Do you pick an original DMG or Pocket or Color and just play the games on them? No modded screens mind you, the original reflective LCDs. I promise there is a purpose to this.
