My mother was a Christian. I am grateful to know I will see her again,
and not in her final state where cancer had made her so weak she could
no longer stand in her final days, but in a new glorified body like that
of the angels, strong and full of vigor.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Thessalonians+4%3A14-18&version=KJV

14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them
also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which
are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not
prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together
with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so
shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Christians do not fear death. We actually have end-of-Earthly-life
services called "Homegoings" where a celebration of the person then
being with Jesus is had. We are sad they are no longer with us, but
we are glad for where they are, for to be with the Lord is far better:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians+1%3A19-26&version=KJV

19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your
prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing
I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so
now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by
life, or by death.
21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet
what I shall choose I wot not.
23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and
to be with Christ; which is far better:
24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and con-
tinue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;
26 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me
by my coming to you again.

We desire to depart from this world, but to remain here is more needful
so that those who are not yet saved, but will be, that they should both
hear the message and be guided by those who are mature in the faith be-
cause there is a real enemy, Satan, who seeks continually to destroy all
things of Christ, even our faith, our witness, our goals.

Satan is always attacking, and we (Christians) are always guiding people
rightly, and being guided rightly by others ourselves.

You must look deep into Christ, and into a purposeful study of scripture,
to not be consumed by our enemy. But when we put on the whole armor of
God, we are made effective warriors against Him.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+6%3A11-18&version=KJV

Truth. Righteousness. Salvation. The preparation of the gospel of
peace. Faith. Spirit. Prayer. Supplication (asking God for help).

The fully-armored Christian does not wear outer armor, but spiritual
armor. All of those traits are invisible to our flesh, but are of
the spirit.

You have much to learn about Christianity, Peter. It is before you
if you can get past your own disbeliefs about it. God will open up
your understanding, draw you to His Son, give you eternal life, and
teach you more than you could've imagined was possible to know. I
pray you do. I would like to call you "brother" in Christ.

He can save your soul. It's far more important.

You've never answered the question, Peter ... did you actually lose
content? Or did you just lose your account? Because I've described
to you how to re-push your content to a new GitHub account. It will
recover your previous pushes with all edits, all changes, broken out
just as before. The only thing you will have lost is your issue
history.

Github is the identity of me, it represent my contribution to open source projects. Now lost, no one know my contributions for past few years. Help me to say thank you to your god for me.

If you go look at the open source projects you've contributed to, they
will still show pulls from your account, contributions by a named user
"Peter Cheung" (or however you identified yourself). Nothing was lost
except the link-connection to your GitHub account.

> Help me to say thank you to your god for me.

It wasn't God who led you to attack me the way you did. That guidance
came from another source. By you agreeing to follow that guidance, it
was the harm you see which was reaped.

It is always that way with the guidance of the enemy.

It's why Jesus teaches us to obey Him in all things. We are not under
the Law so it's not a condition of our being saved, but it comes to our
witness, our walk, in doing what's right in this world despite our real
enemy coming to destroy everything (Satan).

Satan is real. He is a real enemy. His is our ongoing adversary. And
he is that which we are then able overcome when we ask Jesus to forgive
us, and are made alive spiritually. That new spirit life gives us the
ability to not respond to our flesh intentions, but instead we are able
to not respond as our flesh would want, but to listen to God and be,
from within, guided by Him.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Peter+5%3A8&version=KJV

8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a
roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

He wants to devour people. It is his only goal, to kill, steal, and
destroy that which God has created, which includes us as His creation:

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+10%3A10&version=KJV

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they
might have it more abundantly.

We are all consumed by the enemy's guidance, driven to rage, driven to
sin, in one way or another. It is only Christ taking away our sin which
gives us the ability to then say "No" to sin in a definitive way, to
rise above sin and operate in the spirit.

Jesus gives us this tremendous gift, which then changes us forever. We
still face many trials and battles in this world, but the core of our
very being is changed so that we no longer think as we used to, believe
as we used to, respond as we used to, and often to the utter astonishment
of even ourselves as we think we know us, but the new us is assertive,
and will move in ways that make us literally hang our mouths open and
say out loud, "Wow! Where did that come from?"

It is God living inside us spiritually, guiding us toward love and peace,
and away from the warring, hating things of the flesh.
