Church notes - 2nd October 2022

2nd Communion Isaiah 45 There is no other. No other God. No other way to Salvation.

Sermon Revelation 17, 18 Empires rise and fall, but Jesus' Kingdom will be eternal.

Harlotry Jeremiah 3:8, 9 Hosea 1

Not just Rome, but every world system opposed to God. Humanism 'The most important person in the world - you' Spiritual adultery The whole world is prostituting itself to ungodly ideologies.

Humanity stumbling around like drunkards.

Babylon - the symbol of oppressive governments.

We need to support those who are being persecuted.

Prostitution - a counterfeit of marital relations. One cannot buy a committed relationship, nor any other healthy one.

Ch. 18:1 - 3 Condemnation of the world system. Wordly things are not permanent. 18:4 - 6 Voice of separation

1 Peter 2:11

Voices of lament 18:9 - 19 Collapse of materialism

We need to put boundaries on our desires and focus on the LORD. We need to love people and use money. (Not the other way around.)

4th voice

God's justice is done. A calling to account.

Do you enjoy God, or do you enjoy the world?

How can a person keep away from the Evil System? . People must always be more important than products. . Keep away from pride in your own programs, plans and successes. . Remember that God's will and Word must never be compromised. . People must always be considered above the making of money. . Do what is right, no matter what the cost.

Jude 24, 25

My favorite thing in red dead redemption and red dead online is how the characters are HUMAN! Not just in the way they are,but in their appearances too! They have wrinkles,they have scars and smile lines and gray hair,the works. Sean is missing a tooth (albeit through a painful situation),one of Molly’s teeth in the front is slightly bigger than the other,Dutch has forehead wrinkles,Maggie in red dead online has a blind eye and a huge burn scar,a lot of the characters have crows feet too! They’re all SO human and I love red dead for that!! It’s a beautiful game with details that are still being found all these years later but the details in the characters by far are my favorite

"Dutch and Hosea groomed Arthur and John into a life of crime."

John and Arthur were already living a life of crime. John would've been hanged at 12 years old had it not been for Dutch and Hosea. They protected John and Arthur.

I have seen some people entertain the idea of Jack fighting in World War I

I'm sorry if you think Jack would enlist in the army then you clearly misunderstand his character

He grew up surrounded by people who despised the government not to mention this is the same government that killed his father after they promised to let him live

You honestly believe Jack would join the army after everything he has heard about the government and government soldiers killing his entire family save for his mother? Because I sure as shit don't

john marston the type of guy who thinks a little gay action between friends is just your regular male bonding experience so he asks a known gay man if he has a girlfriend

No I’m not thinking about Hosea Matthews living up to his name and being the prophet of doom in the Van Der Linde Gang..

But not only that, I’m also thinking about how Arthur seems to be turning into his own prophet of doom.

I always think about these two Hosea quotes that were both directed at Dutch:

“They want to parlay? it’s a trap!” Which is what he predicted, and Arthur agrees. Of course, Hosea and Arthur’s opinions are overruled by Dutch and Micah, and Dutch, Arthur, and Micah meet up with Colm O’Driscoll. This leads to Arthur being bushwhacked and kidnapped by the O’Driscolls, and nearly beaten to death within an inch of his life, and shot point blank in the shoulder. Arthur barely makes it back to camp, when he brings up his and Hosea’s argument from earlier. “I told you it was a set up Dutch.”

The next quote I’d like to mention is:

“You’ll damn us all.” Which was of course a cutting remark Hosea shot Dutch’s way. This quote was said in the mission before Bronte’s death, which lead to the story- let’s just say- concluding.. (we all know how it ended for Hosea and the rest of the gang) Aka, Dutch damned them all.

And as for Arthur, we see him become Hosea in many ways in chapter 6. Before we play the mission: “That’s Murfree Country” Dutch states: “You sound like Hosea.” When Arthur suggests saving the women, and children (aka something that Hosea’s been talking about since chapter 1) and several times Micah makes comments on how Arthur is becoming like Hosea. Especially in the mission: “The Delights of Van Horn” you can have a hidden interaction with Micah where he mocks Arthur’s “whiny” tone and then states: “You almost make me miss Hosea.” both of these prove that the only thing Arthur became as he was inching closer to death is a carbon copy of his father figure/mentor.
