| − | + | Here's what I mean: We all have sinned at some point in our lives, be it through lying, cheating, stealing, etc. which means we've disobeyed God. Because of that, we deserve to die and be separated from God for all eternity. Jesus is God's Son. In essence, he IS God. Jesus never sinned while he was alive and when he died, he took the punishment for our sins - willingly, out of love for you. If you accept Jesus's actions and make him leader of your life and savior from your sins, you get right standing with God and will be allowed to be with God forever. | |
| + | |||
| + | And forever includes right now. Being Christian doesn't revolve around following a list of "Do"'s and "Don't"'s. It's about a relationship with God through Jesus. Literally, you have a friendship of sorts with God. That is what he wants most from you. The rest of it will just fall in place on its own. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Oh, and Heaven isn't angels strumming harps while we walk on clouds with halos over our heads. It's an awesome place full of activity and song. The streets themselves are paved with pure gold, clear as crystal. | ||
| − | + | If you sincerely want to know God, say this prayer: ''God, I admit that I have sinned and gone against you. I am sorry for doing that and want to turn away from it. Please forgive me of my sins and help me to not sin again. I believe that your Son, Jesus, died for my sins and then rose from the dead three days later. I make him Lord and Savior of my life. Please send me your Holy Spirit so I can live for you. I ask in Jesus' name. Amen.'' | |
| − | + | If you prayed that and really meant it, send me a message. I can probably help you figure out where to go from there. | |

I attend Independence Community college. Currently I'm a full time student. I take mostly online classes which makes it easier for me to maintain my normal work and play schedule, since I can do the work in my bedroom and just submit assignments. |
| − | My favorite TV shows, outside of Christian television, are the ''Star Trek'' series (except ''Star Trek: Enterprise''), ''Ben 10: Ultimate Alien'', ''Meerkat Manor'' ''The Colony'', and ''Naruto: Shippuden''.

My favorite bands are Hillsong London, Chris Tomlin and Newsboys. My hobbies include computer programming and writing science fiction.

My ultimate programming goal is to make a multiplayer strategy game like Starfleet Commander although it would be significantly different from this. I've learned almost everything I need to know. The only part that would be a problem is the graphics.

| + | ===Moderating Style=== | ||
| + | (This is a bit of introspection.) I'd like to think that when it comes to administrating and moderating the wiki, I'm a pretty laissez-faire person. In other words, I'm generally hands-off. If someone blatantly spams I'll revert the mess without making a fuss about it. If someone makes a page or edit that I find odd, I'll ask them about it then take action accordingly. When someone is a major help to the wiki I give them a thank you. Otherwise, you don't really see too much from me. I used to be a natural leader but nowadays I prefer to do grunt work whenever someone needs it. Virtually all of the cosmetic changes that have occurred on here starting in late 2010 were made by [[User:Phil Sutherland|Phil Sutherland]], while [[User:Gary Mintz|Gary Mintz]] has done an extensive job of organizing the alliances and keeping the place clean lately. | ||
