Seeking God in ways that are contrary to how He has told us to seek Him will only get you seeking after Idols and false gods.

Yup. Also the more blonde / light brown hair color the better gold looks on you than silver.

Also, I really like how dark skin and black hair look with gold.

So for me, it's really the medium to dark brown hair and maybe really fair skin goes well with silver.

That's just my personal preference of course.

But on like cars and stuff? Gold is hideous.

There is only "enough" food if you enslave farmers and take their product.

It supports comments, just not posts yet. I'm using Connect still for posting.

But I'm really liking it other than that part. It's really polished.

Probably post more often. Have more conversations. Mention different aspects of lemmy in FFAF on reddit such as the fact that Sync for Lemmy is now out and it's pretty great (but doesn't support posting yet.

I came to say the same thing. This is exactly what Christianity believes.

But of course, it was Jesus who gave himself willingly.

If he was forced to do that, it would've been reprehensible because he was the only truly innocent person who ever lived.

Do Reformed Christians still practice all the pomp and circumstance as exhibited at a Catholic church?

Depends on the church, but in general, there's a whole lot less pomp. My church is pretty casual. People wear jeans, shorts, t-shirts. We have a simple building and there's not a lot of formality.

Is there a reason to put such heavy weight on the word Reformed?

We'll yes. It means some specific things. It means that we believe certain things. And properly Reformed would subscribe to one of the Reformed Confessions (Westminster Confession, London Baptist Confession, Savoy, Three Forms, etc).

So making that overly simplistic - it means that there's a high view of God's sovereignty and a high view of scripture.

Is it just a signal to indicate you're not Catholic?

Reformed would fall under the larger umbrella of Protestant. There are basically 3 main branches of Christianity: Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant.

burning a lot of fossil fuels.

FUD. PYUSD is an ERC20 token, using the Ethereum network, which means it's far more efficient than credit card processing programs at the moment.

Now, don't get me wrong. PYUSD is stupid and I'll never use it. And the whole point of crypto is so that companies can't control your money.

But being inefficient and burning fissile fuels is not one of those negatives about it.

**note - there are a few cryptos, especially first generation that are highly inefficient and do burn lots of fissile fuels, like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc.

But Ethereum adopted proof of stake somewhat recently, so is now far more efficient.

From Roman Catholic into Protestant.

But it specifically means the traditions formed during that time.

The Reformation began with Luther and turn Calvin shortly after when attempting to reform the Roman Catholic Church to stop selling indulgences and to embrace scripture's doctrine of free grace.

Yeah but it's not like that can't happen on Lemmy.

Nice!

My dad used to do a bunch of lathe work like that a few years ago.
