[Jesus Loves You] Tag for filtering

[Rick C. Hodgin]

I know some of you like to read my OS-related threads and replies, but
do not like my posts about Jesus Christ, and have therefore killfiled
me completely.

It was suggested recently that I prefix each thread that has a Christian
teaching with a tag like "[Jesus Loves You]".

I will do that from this time forward.

Every post I write that is something related to Christian teaching will
be prefixed and can be filtered out without filtering it out by my user
name.

I will only post things related to Jesus Christ with that tag in the
subject and you can ignore those posts by filtering on the phrase:
[Jesus Loves You]. By removing those messages, the rest of my tech-
nical content will come through and be readable.

I will also use the new signature below:

You've just posted three times without that "filter tag"; is this just a
case of gross incompetence or another case of deliberate spamming?

Peter Cheung is taking a cue from you, Leigh. He is posting impersonation
posts. The email address he uses is "rickc...@gmail.com" and he posts
from a Usenet provider other than Google Groups and Eternal September. He
also posts using a Mac, whereas I advise everyone to totally shun Apple.

Impersonation posts are evil and they only harm people, the impersonator

I can only conclude you're in troll mode. A sad way to live, Leigh. That
path ends only in Hellfire.

There is a powerful anti-Christ spirit at work in Apple, along the
same lines as the one at work in Starbucks. They harm people greatly,
and people embrace them with open arms unaware of the influence.

Rick probably shuns Apple because the CEO is gay, like me.

I try and teach people about the spirit nature we lost due to sin,
and the evil spirits that take advantage of our spiritual blindness
to lead us into all manner of falseness, sin, and harm to one another,
all under the guise of "doing right" because the reasoning relates to
only the flesh, and does not lend an ear to eternity.

Only those who reject the Lord's free offer of forgiveness, who do
not answer His call out to them, and do so repeatedly despite many,
many attempts to save them, will go to Hell. But all who do that
will go to Hell ... forever.

The teaching is given to save all who will be saved. It is not
given for other people.

No. Our sinful flesh pulls at us in different ways. Some are drawn
to homosexuality, others to adultery and fornication, others to drugs
or alcohol or some other addiction. Each of us bears the weight of
sin's effect in our flesh.

What I seek to do that's different because I am a Christian is to
pray for those people, and to bear a witness against that behavior
while pointing people to Christ.

Jesus gives us new spirit life, which enables us to overcome our
flesh and seek and do rightly in this world. It requires a very
concentrated effort to maintain focus on the spirit because the
enemy here is no slouch. He knows where we're weak and he comes
at us to do the maximum amount of harm (read Job 1 and Job 2 to
see how, once God gave Satan permission, how hard and fully Satan
attacks Job and his life. He does not stop short of the fullest
attack).

In any event, I pray for people like Tim Cook, same as I pray
for people like you, Kenny.

A day of judgment is coming and I don't want you, or Tim, or
anyone to be lost, so I stay the course and keep pointing you
to Jesus so you too can be saved despite the many and heinous
attacks, insults, and slanders.

Hard to disagree with this. If Rick, God forbid, happened to develop
cancer in the future, and the best treatment happened to be created by a
gay person, well, would he even try it out? Humm...

Indeed. In fact, it's not hard to imagine that if Kiki came down with some
loathsome disease, and, upon inquiry, he found out that some medical
researcher had developed a cure for it, but then found out that said
researcher had used non-portable C code [*] as part of his research
activities.

Well, he would just have to politely, but firmly, decline the treatment.

[*] Such as, perhaps, relying on POSIX extensions to the C standards.

Christians pray for people and seek to see them saved in eternity,
Chris. We teach people the truth, the ways of God, and that they
have sin and need to come to Jesus and ask forgiveness so they can
have their sin forgiven and enter in to eternity alive.

We are not here to judge. We are not here to condemn. We are here
to teach everyone the things God will judge, and the things God con-
demns.

Homosexuality is a sin, one explicitly named in that it will keep
a person out of Heaven in both the Old Testament and the New:

Old Testament:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+18%3A22&version=KJV

22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is
abomination.

New Testament:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+6%3A9-10&version=KJV

Note: The King James Version calls the act "abusers of them-
selves with mankind," which was the term for homosexuality
in the 1600s.

9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom
of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with
mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor
extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

A more modern translation makes it clearer in our usage:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+6%3A9-10&version=NIV

9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom
of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor
idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a]
10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor
swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

Footnotes:
[a] 1 Corinthians 6:9 The words men who have sex with men translate
two Greek words that refer to the passive and active participants
in homosexual acts.

Christians warn people of these things today because today you can
repent and be forgiven for your sin. If you die before being for-
given, there is only judgment, for the judgment of God looms over all
of mankind because of Adam's original sin:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+5%3A12-21&version=KJV

12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and
death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that
all have sinned:
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all
men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one
the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so
by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

When Adam sinned we died spiritually. Our bodies are alive, but
only for a time. We have no spirit, no eternal life, of our own.
We are only here on a spirit quickening our body for the duration
of our days. Once those days are up, whenever that might be, we
are then solidified in our saved/unsaved state.

If you ever take the time to really think about these things,
Chris, you might begin to understand them.

-----
Christians are here to live our lives and serve God, teaching
others about who He is, why He came, why we need Him, and what
will happen to us without Him.

The fact that you ask the question indicates you do not understand
anything about Christians, or what it means to be Christian. You're
still looking at things through tainted eyes, and a tainted mind.

If you want to know the truth, you know where to find it. Read and
study the Bible. Go to a Bible believing, Bible studying, Bible teach-
ing church and ask to speak to born again believers face-to-face.

Seek to learn the truth, Chris. Don't just scheme to trap people

It's not like that, Kenny, Chris.

It's that Christians see the traps Satan lays for people. Satan
tries to trap people into caged boxes where the response they give
in that case would serve to lead to Satan's desired end.

The real part that needs addressed is not found in Satan's traps
(played out through sinful men's minds unto others). The real part
that needs addressed is given by God, and it necessarily mandates a
pulling away from Satan's trap, and a teaching of the part that is
of real benefit.

There is no growth, no understanding in following after Satan's traps.
There is growth in learning about Jesus Christ, sin, judgment, and
God's free gift of grace in salvation from sin so that there will be
no judgment.

You need to start there if you want to seek the truth. It's why
Christians do not answer silly and contrived questions (because they
come from Satan and have a purpose to keep a person AWAY from true and
right knowledge of Jesus Christ). Christians consistently avoid those
traps and point people to Jesus Christ.

Someday you'll both understand ... one way or another.

I don't know about this. I think that Christians sometimes underestimate the
difficulties in committing sins of the flesh, I've never found it as easy as
they make out, especially if you care to maintain some fastidiousness in
regards to the "sinee". And besides, some of us spend way too much time here
to have much time left for serous sinning.

Well, I would talk over all options with my doctor. We would pick the

If the selected plan happened to be created by a gay person, well, so be
it. Seriously, why would anybody even think about outright rejecting it
based on that fact alone?

No. You use Satan as an excuse to not answer any question that might
conflict with your worldview so Kenny is correct when he says that
religious people can't answer such questions.

No, Leigh. Satan really is real. Demons are real. The spirit
nature is real. Our flesh cannot see it, but only the effects
of it, because we are spiritually dead due to sin.

I explain these things to you so you can know the truth, but you
reject it. It's why you don't understand or believe the things
I say as being true, nor trust the contents of the Bible as being
true.

You refuse to acknowledge the possibility that something beyond
this tangible, physical, flesh-knowing world we live in actually
exists. If you ever step away from that place you will then be
able to pursue the truth. Until that time, it will totally elude
you.

The evidence exists, Leigh. It exists spiritually, not physically.
It's what I've been trying to teach you. I used to also believe as
you do. So sure I was right. When I came to seek the truth, God
gave it to me, and it completely blew everything I previously held
out of the water.

That's what I'm teaching you. There's more than your flesh knows
today.

God created the entire universe by His word. He could've assembled
everything as we see it today, Leigh, just as our video games would
load the entire world in as a single scene before game play begins.

You understand these concepts fully. You refuse to acknowledge the
possibility that God exists and created more than a mere video game
using His ability to instantiate everything, and you do so solely
because of sin and your love of sin ahead of truth.

I post this reply not for Leigh Johnston, but for other people who
would've read his posts previously and come away with the idea that
the speed of light precludes our universe being created in the literal
six-days of creation.

I was listening to this video today and came across this part:

Creation or Evolution -- Begins at 4:37:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEOxqWbeLcA&t=4m37s

"If the sun that God created was older, and remember that He
created full-blown reproducing things. So, He didn't create a
baby star growing up, He created a star at the right maturity."

This relates to the idea of how we instantiate games for game play.
We don't load things that then take thousands of light years to get
from one part of the game play field to the other. Everything's all
where it's supposed to be once the game loads.

When God created the universe, everything was where it was supposed
to be after He created it there. Everything was at its point and
place of maturity, of full function, of God-created ability.

And the fossils we find in the ground were deposited by the flood,
and not by millions of years.

I urge each of you to watch the DTBM channel on YouTube. You will
have the multitude of lies perpetrated by the enemy throughout your
entire lives undone one by one by one and you'll be taught the truth
of God given unto mankind for all those who will be saved.

To each of you: Be one who is saved. You are valuable, precious,
and I want to see you thriving in Heaven after you leave this world,
able to move and do without limitation of resources, and at the full-
est extent of your maximum abilities unencumbered by the weaknesses
inherent in our flesh here in this world. In Heaven, we're all at
the top of our game continually, because it's the realm of God, and
it's how He set it up to be.

The Lord Jesus Christ is ready, willing, and able RIGHT NOW to for-
give your sin. You know you have sin. You know what those sins
are. Ask Him to forgive you today and be set free from judgment and
condemnation, and begin your new life, your new journey, as one who
is redeemed by our great and precious Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

There's no shame in having rejected Him throughout your life. He
knew that would happen, and it's to be expected because of sin and
sin's influence in our lives. But do not stay in that old place.
Take a step forward to the Lord and watch Him work a miracle in your
eternal life. You'll be filled with joy to such an extent that you
did.

You are each valuable, amazing creations of God. Receive His free
gift of salvation today. You are not promised tomorrow. But He
does promise eternity for all who recognize their sin, repent, and
ask Him to forgive them.

Looking for that Fountain of Youth? Eternal life in a body with
the fullest faculty and ability? Learn about what Jesus brings
to the table. He's got game.

What is the evidence one person loves another?

They don't turn purple or start growing a new appendage when they're in
love. There's nothing outwardly provable. Even the release of chemical
markers do not prove it's love. Could be another cause or trigger.

The only evidence comes not from the assertion, but the observation of
the thing, and the coupled ability to reason and conclude that "that
behavior" indicates "that emotion" and that it doesn't come from feigning
or deception.

Continued observation and reasoned evaluation bears it out.

As to God and God's design:

There is evidence all around us. The geologic column is not millions
of years, it's hydraulic sedimentary depositing from the flood. And
the fossils we find of dinosaurs with blood vessels, blood cells, and
other soft tissue still in tact, some with DNA fragments also still in
tact, indicate the "millions of years" conclusion cannot be true.

Couple that to fish fossils found in the highest mountains, and pre-
flood fauna being found in Antarctica, and it all adds up to a new
narrative where observation and reason cast out the old narrative and
speak to a new one.

Look at the complexity of DNA. There is no way that just happened.
Clearly one of the best evidences of design:

DNA replication. One strand goes forward, one is

I think it's rather hilarious that you think that you are not speaking
incantations and spells, but that's exactly what you are doing, even
if you lie to yourself that you aren't.

You believe that your god is acting on people through his words, which
you are reciting. That the words of your god have the power to influence
people, to turn them to him and to save them. That by you speaking these
words, god is affecting people.

That's the very definition of a magic spell. That's exactly what you are
engaging in. You are just unwittingly engaging in sorcery, even if you don't
realize it and you vehemently deny it.

(Well, *trying* to engage in sorcery, of course. Nothing of that has any
supernatural effect on anything. But whether it has real power or is just
in your imagination, it's still essentially a spell that you are trying
to do.)

Your very scriptures condemn sorcery, incantations and spells, but you are,
ironically, engaging in them yourself. You believe that the words you are
saying may supernaturally have an effect on people. In other words, it's
a spell. It's sorcery.

Deny it all you want. It doesn't change the fact.

[rick.c...@gmail.com]

Juha,

It's understandable to think that way because the nature of God
is spiritual, and the natural man has no faculties to discern
things of the spirit. It is, therefore, impossible for the
natural man to know the difference between sorcery and the
Holy Spirit of God.

The differences exist, and the teaching here is that it's
available to everyone who will press in to God seeking the truth.

I do not give to you salvation. The full weight of my message is
to point to you the One who does give salvation, and to teach
you of His existence and what He offers.

You owe it to yourself and others to investigate it with a
truth-seeking heart.

I post this not for Leigh Johnston, but for others who would read his

https://crev.info/2020/01/dino-skin-with-blood-vessels/

"A mummified dinosaur has skin so well preserved that the remains of blood vessels and pigment can be seen, and analysis of the pigment suggests that the animal had dark grey skin. However, it is possible that the dinosaur’s skin contained other pigments that haven’t been preserved."

The findings are becoming more and more frequent. The myth of millions
of years is not holding up to field research and paleontological

Of course. But the teaching is there's more to what you think you
know than what really exists.

There's an enemy at work in this world deceiving people into be-
lieving his lies when they only glance at the surface, or only give
the real facts a cursory or shallow examination.

It's only when you press in seeking the truth for real that you
uncover the enemy's lies, and you're able to know the truth.

It's all I have to offer you and others, Juha. I fear many of you
will only come to realize the truth I've been teaching you on the
very day when it will do you no good to come into that information.

Today is the day to begin seeking, and to find the truth. None of

Juha, there was a time for the first 34 years of my life when I did
not know the Lord, did not have faith, thought it was all an insane
life crutch that weak people needed to make themselves feel better
about those things they couldn't understand.

But the day came when I wanted to know the truth. I wanted to know
what the Bible said so I could know if I was right in rejecting it.
I didn't want to reject it because I thought I was right.

When I set my sight on truly knowing the truth ... I found it.

Everything I teach you about Jesus, about sin, about our need of
forgiveness of sin, it's all real. I teach you this because I
care about you.

I know nobody will believe what I right because of what I right.
The message isn't given for those people. It's given for those who
are seeking the truth, and who will be converted by our Lord in
their seeking so that they can find the truth, and be set free from
the soon coming judgment for all people world-wide who remain in
their sin.

I would save you from that day, but you want nothing of it. There's
nothing I can do to make you believe or teach you when you close off
your ears and heart and mind and will not hear.

FWIW, I think your name is awesome.

Still blind I see, Kenny.

There's coming a day when you will know the truth. I hope it is here
in this world where you can be saved. But if not, then on that day I
will not condemn you, but I will be sad for you because you did not
seek the truth here on Earth while you had the chance.

The glowing white image of my face will haunt you throughout eternity
because you will remember the insults you hurled at me continually
over these several years, as the unending onslaught of eternity goes
by with you in the flames agonizing over your own supreme loss.

I would save you from that day but you will not hear any of it, and
continue to purposefully be ignorant of these teachings, and those I
point you to in the Bible, in those many videos, the many sources all
of which teach you the truth about their various things.

You're a remarkable creation of God, Kenny. I would like to see you
in Heaven, but that choice is not up to me. I'm doing my part, but
the most significant part is upon you. You must be willing to seek
out and hear the truth. Until you do, the future you're casting for
yourself is without hope.

Look up, Kenny. When it is quiet and you are alone with just you and
your thoughts and no distractions. Look up and consider God. Ask Him
to reveal Himself to you and seek honestly in that asking. If you do,
then hope remains alive in you.

You could start by having an actual back-and-forth conversation with
people, rather than just plugging your ears and preaching out loud,
completely ignoring everything that's said to you.

Your spells do not work, no matter how much you try to shout them.

Actually having a conversation with people could go a long way.
But you won't do that, because you are just a zealot. You do not
converse. You do not listen. You do not respond. You shout.

[rick.c...@gmail.com]

Juha, faith in Jesus Christ is not like other things. It's spiritual.
It's only for those people who are being saved. The rest will never
see it, never understand.

Christians are commanded to teach as they go through life. It's not
our job to convince you. That's the work of God's Holy Spirit. It
is our job to teach, and I have done that. I point you to the spirit-
ual resources you need to increase your understanding in curiosity unto
God. They are good, solid instructional material.

If you do not understand the message, it's because you're not seeking
the truth. Only those seeking the truth will be saved, because Jesus
is truth.

He's literally dividing the world: saved, unsaved.

I am becoming more and more convinced that you actually have some kind of
psychological illness or birth defect that impairs your cognitive capacity
and your ability for social interaction. It's like talking to a brick wall.
You have completely shut down the outside. You seem completely incapable
of reading what it's being said to you, understanding it, and responding

The devout Christian seems that way to non-Christians as they have inner
guidance given them unaware by the spirit of this age. Literal demons
influencing the people of this world in every wicked way against God.
They seek to deceive us by any means necessary, to keep us from coming
to Jesus Christ and being saved.

Only those seeking the truth will be saved. As with our physical birth,
our spiritual birth is an act of God. Until that happens, we remain in
our sin, condemned, and on track for Hell.

Is your heart hardened against God?

What will the tribulation be like at its worst peak?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEfTzOYKVuc

The tribulation will be a preview of Hell, only infinitely less torment
and agony. But still people won't repent. Still they will rage against
God to their own soul's eternal destruction.

Each of us can be spared from that. Those with ears to hear His call
will come out from the world, approach Jesus, and be saved. The rest
will conclude those calling on the name of Jesus have a mental disease
and are lunatic nutjobs... until they leave this world and realize then,
and too late to be saved, that it was all real. They'll see what they
missed out on for homosexuality, or drink, or promiscuity, or some other
fleeting things. They'll know the truth and it will penetrate to the
absolute depths of their soul. Weeping and gnashing of teeth galore.

Every soul can be spared that today. Right now. Just for the asking.

To those who are perishing it is absolute nonsense. To those who are
being saved, it is the power of God.

Be one who is saved. Choose life. Choose Jesus today.

[rick.c...@gmail.com]

They do not accept that evil spirits have the influence on our flesh
that I and others teach they do (Ephesians 6:10-18). Spiritual forces
are able to influence our flesh. Those who are not born again (of the
spirit) have no faculties to discern spiritual things, and believe
everything they think or feel is their thoughts and their feelings. Not
all of them are. Addicts, lusts, all manner of things leading to sin
and other things harmful, are the result of evil spirits influencing
the flesh, rewarding bad behavior, punishing good behavior (toward God
and God's ways). It's why it's easy to sin, and hard to walk the
straight and narrow. There are literal minds with influencing abili-
ties at work against you.

Those are the things people don't want to hear, and the reason why is
because their demon hosts are comfortable where they are in / around
that person. To hear this teaching is to have ammunition and a real
explanation as to why you keep doing what you don't want to, and why
you can't do what you want to (Romans 7, 8).

They do accept that Jesus Christ alone can save them. But they stop
short of increasing in spiritual knowledge.

And it's hard. Spiritual things are not like physical things. It
does require a new learning, and it comes through your spirit, not
through your traditional mind or senses.

There are Christians who do accept what I teach about, and if you examine
the fruit of their life they don't use profanity, don't watch inappro-
priate video content, or listen to inappropriate audio. They obey God
and guard their life against the enemy. As such, an emphasis is on God
and spiritual things. They do receive it.

The extent to which this world is compromised is astounding. Very few,
very few desire holiness and purity unto God, to name Him by name in
their public daily affairs.

The world needs more Christians standing up for their faith actively in
all the things they do. Even in computer circles.

is a powerful evil spirit, or addictions (likewise).

You can see the evidence of love at work in people's lives.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+18%3A22%2C+20%3A13&version=KJV;NIV

18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind:
it is abomination.
20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman,
both of them have committed an abomination: they shall
surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

New Testament:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+1%3A26-27%2C+1+Corinthians+6%3A9-10&version=KJV;NIV

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts.
Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for
unnatural ones.
27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations
with women and were inflamed with lust for one another.
Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received
in themselves the due penalty for their error.

9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the
kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually
immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers
==> nor men who have sex with men
10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers
nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

God teaches people in advance what He will judge, and the way out of
that judgment, so if they do not repent, it will be absolutely crystal
clear as to why they are being damned to Hell for all eternity.

God doesn't send anyone to Hell. People choose to go there.

I teach people in advance so they know truth, and can change while they
have time before leaving this world.

Did you manage to create an installation system for CAlive? A boot image?

[Chris M. Thomasson]

I have some old computers around, and would be willing to give it a go.

[Mr Flibble]

Fuck. Off.

[rick.c...@gmail.com]

Nope. I had something happen in my life about 18 months ago that has
radically reshaped my goals in the near term.

I still work on it when I can:

My assembler has undergone syntax changes. Looks much more C-like now.
I'm currently working on a new ABI design for a shared project with
another developer.

// 386 asm:
mov eax,edx
push edx

// My assembler:
eax = edx
^edx

Cool. Heck, even if it takes a 3.5 inch floppy to get me to a point
where I can partition and format a HD, an loads up a USB and/or CD
driver, I can install from the CD or something.... ;^)

Did you create your own filesystem?

Can it run on a Pentium III?

Fwiw, here is some interesting code. Looks like WINE? Or the source code
for the NT 4 kernel:

Guessing it can run like a charm on a Pentium III.

I can't even do that and I've helped create a programming language.

My own kernel, FS, and ABI. It's one of the main reasons CAlive was
created.

> Can it run on a Pentium III?

CAlive supports x86, 386, and 686 presently.

It's not finished, but those are its targets. I had planned a VM I
created called VVM, and my Inspire hardware architecture, but for
now straight x86, and 32-bit.

You are channelling Terry A Davis amirite? There must be an afterlife if you are! Terry cannot wait for you to join him in the racist homophobic misogynist heaven belonging to that the wonderful Abrahamic God (who isn't bigoted at all of course).

You asked...

No. I began my OS project before I ever heard of Terry. Also, Terry
was diagnosed as Schizophrenic. He said He regularly heard the voice
of God, but if you look at His writings you'll see He wrote things
which contradict scripture. He was listening to demons, not God.

The evil spirits in this world "connect" to our flesh. They can do
it more easily or have a more solid connection with some people, and
those are they which become homosexual, addicts, run guns, or whatever
thing it is that is worldly. They can also be scientists like Richard
Dawkins, who is Richard + demons, or Garth Brooks, who is Garth + demons.

The only defense we have against those evil spirits is the victory and
new spirit life Jesus gives us. It's transactional.

1) We have original sin, plus our own sin.
2) This makes our spirit dead, and our soul under condemnation.
3) We come to Jesus asking Him to forgive our sin.
4) He takes our sin off our account, and puts it on His account.
5) This means we no longer have sin.
6) Which means our soul is no longer under condemnation.
7) And our spirit comes alive.
8) From there, God is able to commune with us spiritually, to talk to
us, to guide us away from evil.
9) God's Holy Spirit cleanses our lives by teaching us truth and
falseness. He gives us strength to say no to sin, so we achieve
victory over whatever had us bound before.

Jesus is real. Sin is real. Salvation is real. It's all logical and
proper, and it explains the way of this world.

Leigh Johnston is Leigh + demons. If you don't like being deceived
and used by them to do harm and destroy your own soul, ask God to for-
give your sin. Ask Jesus to set you free. And feel your own spirit
come alive in that selfsame instant.

That's one of the tricks of this sort of scam (one I have a lot of personal
experience with - not, of course, as a perpetrator, but as an observer):

The trick is to constantly expand the scope of the project, so that you
never get anywhere on it.

The thing that happened has diminished my time to work on my projects.

And if you go back and look, you'll find my goals have always been the
same: A hardware and software stack written from scratch, given over
to God explicitly, through prayer and sanctification.

CPU, OS kernel, drivers, apps. A usable system for daily use.

You know nothing about me, Leigh.

A former band mate, a lesbian, is coming over this weekend so I can work
on her car. I work with two gay men, one is the lead on our main project.

Being Christian and warning people about sin and judgment doesn't mean
you stop being kind to them, or working with them. It means you teach
them the truth and keep going in life doing the things which are to do.
Nobody knows when another will be saved. You love people continually,
always praying for them, always helping them, showing them the love
and patience of God alive inside you.

You cast things upon me which are not me or mine.
