Christians... having fun?

[Ceph]

I see.. I'm still trying to 'climb into' the world outside mine.
From how it's described, it seems like a dangerous place where I don't want to be.
But it's ok, I'm inspired. I'll think of ways to bring the ball pit here.

I have 6 tennis balls rolling around in my dryer...

Would that be considered the start of my own ball pit?

You see how the tennis balls roll and bounce around and the sounds they make as they do so, while you open & close the drawer they're in?
That can actually trigger a potential glitch where ancient indegeous peoples spirits think you're bumping their special drums to summon the forest gaurdian uku-acha-noba. Judging by the fact that this guys territory is now completely covered in concrete, the guy is aactually quite angry, and there's a chance that his physical manifestation might be coming to destroy you in 3 days.

Well...

With 3 days left - I should have time to sneak in a few loads of nice, fluffy laundry first.

At least I'll be dressed in nice, fresh smelling clothes -- as I'm fighting for my life!

What if the washing machine spits out your clothes, flaps out with its door: "Sorry bud, I know material objects gotta stick around but this is truly so bad that I ain't gonna deal with this.", tears itself off from its pipes on the wall, smashes its way out through a window, steals a car and drives away?

Then I would take that as a clear sign that God was telling me...

It's definitely time for me to move.

Jesus rises up to help you, and gives you an extremely tiny, negligable fraction of his own power. When you move, it's like a flash of lightning. Wherever you touch, an ear-splitting thunder resonates from the point of contact. A rainbow bloom resonates off your body.
With the wink of your eye, you can cause everything in your feild of vision to disperse into loose dust.
Rising up from your place, a quake resonates throughout reality that spans across time, and it causes the creature 3 days in advance to know what could happen to him. He has not yet even materialized, and now he dreads to exist.
Ywt you have a strong desire to show mercy on the being, that it might convert to peace. Hw will uncondionally have to spawn.
How do you prepare to greet him?

So, we've got our routine sermons and gatherings of worship.
We've got our charitable deeds and obedience to the faith.
We have a heart that loves the Lord, and perceptions of his glory that don't fade away.
We are commanded to love one another, and in Christ we do that well enough.

But tonight, as I was playing with my imaginary wife in my mind, throwing her around and doing other (innocent) fun things with her, I got to thinking...
Why doesn't everybody do this with each other? We know the commandments, we know to love the Lord, to be at peace with all men and aid those who are weak;
But why don't we playfully beat our chests and ook & eek like moneys at each other? Why doesn't the church have a ball pit, and an adult-sized playground? You know when we were little we did all kinds of crazy stuff.. some of it we might now find offesive, but when we were little we didn't mean wrong. How about playing a game of tag or hide-and-seek during the next mass, or a game of candy land or sorry? How about behaving like we did during school lunch hour with each other?

Jesus is love, and in love, there is no law. We're not dangerous or malicious people in any way. Our ideas of having fun involve no evil, yet are clean and powerful. I think the world would be a better place if Gods church reflected the rawness and pureness of what our freedom in Christ can be.

supplemental to my earlier post: in recent years i've been thinking of becoming a speaker in church. the 1st element i thought of was to incorporate comedy. church attendance & listening to the sermon should be fun. & the fact is that its easy to record, retain & recall when learning is fun.

That person might be living in miserable conditions.. a darkness on their mind that doesn't go away, which dulls out their senses to the world around them. The cats could be a cover for the human company she's hardly experienced.
I have this problem myself. Maybe if you will, talk with her deeply about something she cares about.

i talked to her years ago by witnessing the Lord Jesus to her. she accepted. she's your classic old rich lady, no kids, never married & a loner. every time i'm working there, i talk to her.

Good Christian Answer: Personally, if I knew some supernatural entity was on the way and it's not an angel that, I'd be high-tailing it out of there as fast as I could. If I HAD to "greet" it, then it would be with a Bible and a whole lot of prayer.

I have no interest in seeing supernatural beings because I personally think that if they're not angels, they're from the side of evil. I could be wrong, but I'm not really wanting to find out.

The Hmm, Ok, I'll Play Along Answer: The whole premise of this story you've been setting up -- some kind of supernatural monster that's angry because its sacred land was turned into a human dwelling -- seems to be the main plot of several 80's and 90's horror movies.

I've never been into horror, so I guess I'd have to Wiki the synopses of these films to try to get an idea of what to do.

And you said this creature "will unconditionally have to spawn"?

Uh... I know it's a popular theme in those movies, but that's just like 7th dimension levels of creepy.

I want to work together with you to create something new. I'm not setting up the story, it's being written between us right now.
Where are you running to? What would you plan to protect yourself? We don't have to be real.

Use all your miscallanious trivia, knowledge, intuitions, thoughts, and imaginations to mix together a batter to put out to bake.

it'll only succeed if you follow this rule: "never brew a bitter batter without butter because a better batter is brewed as a buttered batter" nyuyknyuknynyuk!!!

Mistakes can still be eaten for 1 HP, so might as well give that raw poison to the cook.

I truly appreciate your efforts and sentiment in this thread. Fun and creativity are often sorely lacking in many Christian settings.

I have to confess though that my writing style seems to be strictly engineered for conversational-type exchange only (and a few bad jokes.) Unfortunately, I have no story-telling skills whatsoever.

But, in all fairness, and to try to give you proper credit for the work you've put into this thread...

If a supernatural being who was angry at me for living on what was once his hallowed ground and chasing me to my doom...

Where would I run to? What would I plan to protect myself with?

(Pulling from pop culture movie lore.) I'm guessing, a Catholic church would be my best bet. No, I'm not Catholic, nor do I endorse Catholic beliefs.

However, from what I've read/listened to about horror movies, supernatural monsters are often affected by crucifixes, holy water, and perhaps a real-live priest -- all of which I'm guessing might be useful defenses!

And if the type of monster that's after me is immune to those things... Well.

I guess that vengeance-laden monster will finally have his day.

Don't give me too much credit. I haven't been 'all here' for a while, and I'm still a little loopy.. consider the results of my efforts like pasta that's become tender enough to float after it's been boiling for long enough.
I think I'll be writing some stories to you guys soon enough.. I've also got some miserable conspiracy stuff to burn through.

That aside, (you should listen to some creepypastas, they can have really cool stories) If I were you, since the monster is now terrified to come into existence towards me and I now have extreme power by the grace of Jesus, I would assemble every single singer & band in the world to compose a continuous several-day-long rock opera about why it should drop its demonic nature and turn to God, and build a type of jail that would prevent it from moving, sleeping, or even closing its eyes as it watched the whole performance.
In the end, if I investigate it and it hasn't repented, I'd lay a miniature nuclear bomb between its legs and detonate it.
But if it repents, we bond and become a party of superheroes.

How does an imaginary wife work

The church is busy, especially if the church is a Disciples making church. sometimes we have activities back to back. And it's exhausting
so groups can organize these activities by themselves. and even use it for discipleship. it would be fun

My imagination is mostly all I have in my life, so I might as well make a dwelling where I can preserve some form of love.
