The Disposition of Sin

The disposition of sin reveals itself in our mindset. Self-realization can become harmful when we prioritize our desires over higher values. Both moral and immoral acts can stem from a sinful disposition, often hiding true intentions.

Understanding sin is crucial, especially for those in recovery or facing a crisis of faith. Sin influences our actions and thoughts, turning self-realization into self-centeredness. It is more than moral failure; it creates barriers to healing and spiritual growth. The Bible provides a foundation for this understanding. Sin entered humanity through Adam and Eve’s disobedience, leading to death…

Bare skin, bare feelings.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #lan wangji #wei wuxian #blood #Imagine coming off as homophobic to your crush so bad he weaponizes a strip tease against you.#LWJ is just having a storm of bad emotions. His tummy hurt real bad and he was just trying to be brave about it!#WWX is just trying to be a good bro and heal his friendcrush. It worked but not for the reasons he thinks it did.#LWJ's shyness is also hilarious here considering they have bathed together before. Literally nothing there he hasn't seen before.#Granted it was a few years back and before he was left to stew in his feelings.#LWJ is more focused on his pride than being responsible and reasonable (getting is wounds treated).#His arc really is about accepting that he can't be perfect. That there is importance in being honest and vulnerable.#The tragedy is that he realizes this way too late.#Pride is the worst sin because it destroys your ability to protect anything other than the smallest crown in the world.#When everyone is gone and you are left alone - was it worth it to feel safe and protected from showing your flaws?#Control over oneself is in conflict with connection to others. You cannot pick both.#Hanguang-jun appears to us as a 'perfect guy' but the truth is that he is the version of LWJ who is done with *needing* that validation.#And this time - He can properly reach out to those he wants to be close with.

Is that canon!?! Was Machete just really naive/didn't really understand the implications of his relationship to Vasco? Did his mentor ever find out about them or discuss such things with him? I assume bc he didn't have parents, he kinda didn't get educated on sex or anything. Was it a big shock to realize he was "sinning"?

.

#eh I was just exaggerating it for comedy because the page was so unintentionally funny and fitting #he might've been a little bit naive but was painfully aware he was in a relationship with a man and that it was forbidden #his mentor was all about asceticism and mortification and extreme self-denial #and had drilled it into his head that practically all romantic feelings let alone sex were foolish and sinful and should be shunned #so his feelings about the whole thing were complicated but in the end Vasco was more important #not to sound corny #but there was a hole in his heart that he had desperately tried to fill with god that never seemed to care about him #and once he got some of that love he had been aching for #from another living person #he had to do what it takes to make room for that in his belief system #how could such a tender fulfilling and healing thing be wrong #answered #anonymous #his mentor did eventually find out about them and wasn't very happy about it #to put it mildly #but by that point Machete had managed to mostly inch his way out from under his heel #he was graduating and getting ordained and wouldn't be going back to Naples #if it were up to him he'd never want to see him again

Let me assign you an affection language.

A Knife Called Grief You have left your house, you have left those people behind, but what are you going to do about the memories which have taken root in you? You can run but not without them. You want someone to sit with you on this cool marble floor while the sun burns everything.You want them to cut your rotten heart and theirs too. You want to sit with it in front of you, let them see you with all your flaws, which haven’t been your fault but you have been made to believe so, and you want them to love you anyways. Because you know you’d do that for them.

[yoinked from iobartach]

#[inch resting]#ooc #dash game #[reminds me of a post I saw about Miguel's infidelity-- I can't find it anymore but basically it boiled down to #his betrayal of Gabriel and Xina being a sort of betrayal of himself. Now the OP was also trying to make sense of the comic's writing as it #also mischaracterized Xina (per their words)‚ but since Miguel knew Xina since they were young and she protected him from bullies‚ and #Miguel grew up shielding Gabriel from their parents‚ his betrayal and subsequent estrangement from them for someone new‚ someone his brothe #loved‚ and also apparently supported Alchemax whereas Xina was much quicker to criticize it‚ can be seen as Miguel trying to shove down the #vulnerable‚ hurt‚ HUMAN side of himself to make way for the idealized version he tries to protect as a corpo snob.#Which is an interesting viewpoint considering post-forcible-genome-splicing‚ comics!Miguel was also desperate to prove his humanity. He see #himself as an abomination‚ a freak. So how do we reconcile this with movie!Miguel‚ who we admittedly don't know much of his mental state #other than he is basically having The Worst Fucking Day Of His Life Constantly due to grief and leading hundreds of Peter Parkers?#I guess in my own characterization‚ Miguel is trying desperately to shut down that vulnerability‚ BE the inhuman juggernaut‚ the leader‚#but at the same time time‚ esp post-BTSV‚ is so ridden by his mistakes and sins and endless list of shortcomings‚ ALONG WITH the grief for #his daughter that he doesn't seem keen to heal from‚ that he's simultaneously trying to REconnect with that. Figure out what and who he is #outside of work‚ outside of Canon Events‚ outside of everything that Miles took and shook upside down. But that's difficult when #you're so determined to shut that down too‚ huh? Spider-Man can't do both. Not this time. Miguel is going to have to learn one day that he #needs to allow himself to FEEL human instead of constantly shutting it down or drowning it out. Maybe then he'll BE human again too.]#[🍻 if you read this far; I fear this was largely incoherent]

thinking priest!geto thoughts again :(((

you’re both a little rotten . it’s a stench that sticks to your skin and you can smell it off each other. there’s a certain kind of bond that only blooms between people who know the each other’s smile is fake, you know? and there’s a kind of trauma that lingers and rots and sticks to your bones and you can hide it with layers of clothing or heavy robes but people who have felt it themselves will always spot the signs . do you see what i’m saying. there’s something special between you when he says he loves his god and you know that he’s lying. there’s something special when you say you couldn’t care less if god thinks you’re sinful and he knows that you’re lying . because you can both smell it off each other. the sickening rot .

#explodes into pieces #yeah i’ve been…. feeling really normal recently. as you can see #priest!geto’s reader is so fun #to me #they’re so unabashed and crude and classy and they call him out on his bullshit with a smile #and he just smiles back #you’re both so tired and cynical but you appreciate each other’s company #i like to think . that he moves in with you. far away #you steal a priest from his church and take him home with you #and he’s happy . he finds more faith in the windows of your bedroom than he ever did in the stained glass of his church #i don’t know if i’ll ever write everything out fully because i do think . this would have to be suggestive #something about scrubbing off the shame that comes with catholic guilt yk ??#you sleep with him and it’s not sinful.#you sleep with him and you wake up in his arms the morning after and that’s the first time you see him fully at peace #okay nevermind i’m gonna cry #THEY MEAN SO MUCH TO MEEE :((((#need priest!geto to heal sooo fucking badly hang in there king #ari noises ✩#geto x reader #priest!geto

I think truly one of the best parts about y2k fashion being back in is being able, as an adult, to wear the clothes my parents told me I couldn’t bc of evangelical purity culture.

#microdosing on healing from harmful modesty ideas by wearing crop tops #yeahhhh boi #healing my inner child who wanted to wear this stuff and then got told it was a sin #pants and crop tops let’s gooo

were not gods

#my art #trigun #trigun maximum #trigun 98 #trigun stampede #vash the stampede #nicholas d. wolfwood #vashwood #ive been haunted by the idea for months that #vash willingly bears humanity's sins #even stuff that isnt his fault #his body is littered with scars to show how humans treat him #wolfwood takes vials to heal his body #he is mortal yet he rids of the evidence of whats been done to his body #but he still bears a lot of pain and responsibility on his own as well #wolfwood's feelings towards why vash does this to himself #vash's feelings towards wolfwood trying to take on this role of being a devil #aughh i could go on #also vash has red bursting from his chest to represent blood and death #the literal death he has seen but also metaphorical bleeding heart #because red has positive connotations such as love and determination #but its painful for him

Spoilers in tags

You know the increasing format (?) where MC is our typical nondescripted modern person who transmigrated into the character of novel they read only to find out or it is hinted that *gasp* they were actually the reincarnation of that very same character.

I thought that since the motif is becoming more popular that at some points the author will make use it like:

+making it the metaphor for trying to break out of the cycle or a look at life and how your mental health affects it.

+emphasize how depressed and burn out it can be, trying to survive when it seems like the world is against you

I've finally reached the Blackpits fight to save Gwydian and all I have to say is

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

#Dos2 #Divinity original sin 2 #Why is there necrofire everywhere why am I being swarmed with blobs why do some of the blobs heal from the fucking necrofire and #poor Gwydian is as sturdy as a wet piece of cardboard why do I have to babysit this guy. I am woefully unprepared for this fight #Unrelated but the fact that these oil blobs slap each other's butts to heal is very funny

Is it okay if I pray for someone to go through the exact thing that they put me through? I’m not a vengeful person by any means but the depth of the pain and betrayal that this person put me through and after pretending to be on my side all along for 4 years absolutely shatters me and I can’t help but ask Allah to make them suffer the way they made me suffer. What’s worse is that I told them over and over how their behaviour was hurting me to the point where they almost risked my life and left me to die. I sometimes feel guilty about praying against them after praying for them for so long but I can’t bring myself to stop. I’m hoping one day I’ll be able to let go and make peace with the pain but for now, I’m not sure if I can

Salam, I’m really sorry you’re going through this.

The duaa of the oppressed is answered, which is why people are warned against oppressing others, as those they harm may pray against them and their duaas are always accepted.

And knowing Allah is the most Just means that even if you don’t make duaa against them, if someone hurts you intentionally, Allah will bring you justice. Was Yusuf making duaa against his brothers after they left him to die in the well? I doubt it. Yet decades passed and Allah gave him power and brought his brothers to him in weakness. And they were completely at Yusuf’s mercy.

But you’ll notice that Yusuf was given the ability to get revenge and he didn’t. The Prophet ﷺ was also given the ability to get revenge on his oppressors, and he chose not to.

I don’t know what you went through. If someone was deliberately hurting you and abusing you, I can’t tell you you aren’t allowed to pray against them — because you are.

All I will say is saying hasbi Allah wa nimal wakeel (Allah is enough for me and He is the best disposer of affairs) instead will help release the anger and bitterness that comes with wanting revenge, and leaves them to Allah instead. And Allah being the most Just, He will never leave you without receiving your justice— whether it’s in this life or the next. It will be lighter on your heart and mind to know that you left your case with Allah and trust Him to deal with them in the way that is necessary. As opposed to praying against them day and night and waiting to see them be dealt with.

#I know a brother who refused to give a testimony that could have saved someone’s life (which is an obligation for us as Muslims)#and he specifically refused bc he said his wife would divorce him if he gave that testimony #subhanAllah he refused to give a word of haqq which Allah will ask Him about and years later his wife divorced him anyway #and this is even though the family refused to make duaa against him and all they said was hasbi Allah wa hi3mal wakeel #withholding justice or harming others intentionally or withtholding someone’s rights are serious sins in Islam #and Allah never lets it go or forgets even if they forget they did it and thought it was small #I hope Allah heals your heart and protects you from ever going through something like that again #and that He eases your pain whatever its source #and allows you to deal with this in the best way

I have made my peace with being forgotten

and yet you think of me.

I have made my peace with being unloved

and yet you continue to try.

I have made my peace with this silence

and yet your knuckles rap at my door.

I have made my peace with letting go

but you continue to hold on.

what do you think of me?

what do you love?

who do you speak to?

what are you holding onto?

is it me you perceive?

or a shape of something you thought was real

created from dreams and wishes and the promise of a thousand people before you.

#poetry #color says shit #this just in. staying at my parents house while they're gone is bringing up the same old pain #pushing on the same old healed over scars.#heartbreaking. someone you know doesn't conform to rigid black and white good/evil morality #how to build distance when they keep trying to hold you close #when that closeness brings up every single moment of pain #when they're determined to hate the sin but love the sinner.#when your dad still quotes transphobic rhetoric at you.#when your mom is still convinced your queer identity is created from trauma #when they still genuinely care about you as a person but are still fundamentally arrayed against everything you've built for yourself #when their love is a constant wish for transformation. regression back to a more malleable obedient state.#I hurt so fucking much because the only way to make it stop is for me to be the bad guy #for me to tell them to fuck off #otherwise I constantly fight against their gravity.#constantly fight against the expectation that I become something else.#that I drop this childish delusion and pick up the ways of a grown adult instead #and yet they celebrate me. they celebrate my name change.#the change that rejected both their last names. that transformed the entire thing into something apart from them.#I orphaned myself and they celebrate me for that. I'm going to hit post now because I can't keep typing cause I'm gonna go cry instead #I just. what the fuck do I do with this situation.

Thinking about the idea of a casshern au that’s specifically a new take that’s closer to the original but uses the sins characters as if I’ll have time to make that/develop it given “I had a au like that for Jeeg and even Kikaider but it went nowhere + now I’m working on a actual big project so I can’t do anything else until it’s done which will take a few years at my rate”

but yknow? It’s fun to rotate concepts.

#meg text #casshern #casshan #if I drew more I’d definitely also make designs but I just love imagining what ifs for old anime ips #that won’t get shit but it’s fun to think about #For what ideas I have I’ll spill in tags because I’m lazy to type up another post or on this post #but basically it’s like Luna is good but she has her ability like sins so Casshern is more or less protecting her #and Casshern here would probably be a human like OG but instead of turning robot he’s a cyborg #literally half machine half human and he wouldn’t be immortal but Luna would heal him #dio and leda are made by braiking boss as counterparts to the two of them (expect Leda still gets casshern traits)#Lyuze sister worked for braiking but had a change of heart yet dies but Lyuze interprets this as Casshern killed her #so she hates him but grows to warm up to him and becomes a ally but still from a distance #I want to fit in Ringo here cause she’s precious but I don’t know how I would rn #This is a barebone concepts but the sins characters deserve to be used in more stuff #they can work even without the apocalypse just would need retooling

just had a Thought™¹. ✨Reader discretion is advised✨, AKA read at your own risk and hate will be blocked.

¹ based on conversations with my ex-Mormon friends & Christian friends, & my attempts to understand and reassure them

~~~~

¿what if suffering is the worst sin? ¿what if building a life that brings you joy is the ticket to heaven?

~~~~

in more detail:

¿what if causing suffering of any kind unto others is the worst sin? ¿what if letting your suffering hurt other people is the worst sin?

¿what if telling everyone they’re sinned and doomed to hell is enacting the worst sin? ¿what if telling children they are unholy and sinners is the worst sin? ¿what if “holy” wars are the worst sin?

¿what if being “kind” and “charitable” only for status or out of fear of eternal punishment is a sin?

or even.... ¿what if forcing yourself to eat something you don’t want to is a sin? ¿what if submitting to “the grind” is a sin? ¿what if complacency is a sin?

~~

in reverse, ¿what if joy is the ticket to heaven? ¿what if going on that trip you wanna go on is the ticket to heaven? ¿what if being kind just to be kind & for no personal self-gain is the ticket to heaven?

¿what if telling people they are sacred and holy and loved (truly loved, for who they are & not in spite of it) by God is the ticket to heaven? ¿what if telling children that (because Jesus died for their sins) they are protected and holy just for being alive?

¿what if knowledge, and wielding it wisely is the ticket to heaven? ¿what if the lesson of Adam and Eve was to remind us of what was sacrificed to bring knowledge to us, making knowledge itself holy and of God Himself?

¿what if the lesson of Lucifer the Devil is not to fear him but to love his complexity and embrace him as God’s son? ¿what if God told the tale of his fallen son to remind us all to love our children dearly? ¿what if God was sharing his deepest regret— that he did not love his son as deeply as Lucifer needed?

¿what if the tale of Abraham and Isaac is to remind us that your children are just as important as God? ¿to show us that loving and protecting your loved ones is, in fact, to love God Himself?

¿what if kindly alerting the waiter/waitress or server that something is amiss (you received the wrong food, or it’s cold when it should be warm, or the cooks / preparers forgot to add or remove an ingredient, or etc.) is a ticket to heaven? ¿what if revolution and standing up for what you believe in is a ticket to heaven? ¿what if using your voice is a ticket to heaven? ¿what if using your privilege to protect others is a ticket to heaven?

¿what if self-love and self-respect are a ticket to heaven?

¿what if love and respect and unity are holy and lead to heaven, but hate and division and ignorance and complacency lead to hell?

¿what if the reason it’s a staircase to heaven is because you have to evolve and heal and grow as a person, to resist and re-evaluate instinctual feelings (and written languages, and spoken languages, and thoughts) before acting upon them, and that takes a lot of work?

¿what is the whole point is to show God you are willing to work on yourself and build connection with others before you are allowed into his home and around his children (angels, beloved pets, and other deceased souls)?

¿what if it’s a highway to hell because you can stay complacent and blind and are easily manipulated (highway hypnosis), and because you can hurt animals and people easily, and because you’re on autopilot and instinct and thoughtless power saving mode, all of which are easy and require very little from you?

¿what if it’s a highway to hell because you can crash blindly through wilderness, through homes, through living beings, and hardly notice a bump in the road? ¿what if mindlessness and carelessness are the fuel (gas, battery power, etc.) to drive to hell?

~~~

¿Do you hear me? ¿Do you understand?

(Also semi seriously, ¿should I start a branch of Christianity / a church based around this concept, with its own commandments that are freeing and gentle and loving?)

~~~
