Time-Lancer

 

Thank you Shellie Summers for the amazing Artwork!

September 8

Time-Lancers, a supernatural breed of humans that lived among us primarily in secret, excluding, of course, the few humans that knew about them and sought to kill them. This dream was centered around a young boy who, due to the recent death of his parents, had become the last of the Time-Lancers. At the young age of 10,000, he looked just like any 10-year-old boy should. Time Lancers seemed to age relatively slowly in comparison to humans, they also seemed to possess a really powerful memory. The absolute best way to describe their memory would be time travel because they could essentially relive any moment in their lives as if they had jumped back in time. They could also process this information so fast that they could live the length of their entire lives in a single moment.


If memory serves correct, a Time-Lancer could see and interact with red strands (fates) that every person was wrapped around within varying degrees. These strands connected people together in a visible way, based on the impact that they would have on one another's life. Example: If I am going to encounter and befriend you, then every day of my life before and after that a red strand will be tied from me to you. A Time-Lancer could cut these strands, the possibility of any kind of relationship, and any impact with that person. In the extreme, they could completely cut away all of a person's red strands and completely isolate them, this was considered to be a kind of death. I had the feeling that the tool they used to cut the strands was some kind of scissor-like tool; perhaps they were the lances?


If age equaled maturity, I would be tempted to assume that mankind does not live long enough to reach a state of full maturity. We are so young. If we could live 10,000 years, maybe it would be long enough for us to do something incredible, invent the wheel perhaps, or discover gravity. For now, though, I think I will stop here before I start thinking of something really crazy, like a digital music box or long-distance communication.

Afro-American Zeitgeist

Photo by Ali Hajian on Unsplash The Afro-American Zeitgeist : A Summary of Unconscious Thoughts on Race (Part 1) July 30th, Passionless Bliss : "I am not afraid of death because death is invisible. If I can't see where it's going or what it is doing, is it doing anything at all? However, I am afraid of empty buildings because they confirm the reality of death's existence." Or, in simpler terms, Ignorance is bliss until reality hits. My dreams began by directly addressing my unwillingness to look into the deaths of African-Americans across the country. Despite my lack of knowledge, I became seriously opinionated about the nature of the incidents themselves, almost refusing to consider blackness as a factor. However, after the first dream, I began an investigation to prove blackness had nothing to do with these deaths. In the following paragraphs, I will take you through the sequence of dreams, which forced me to come to the conclusions, or at least my current stan...

Magenta

Photo by aslam mac on Unsplash Dream 02/20/21 I glanced at a book in a dream, the dream I have forgotten but the book I have not. The book was a guide for couples, and it got me thinking, "Why not contemplate the topic of love?" For the sake of keeping this pg, I am not gonna state the title of this book here, nor its content; however, in place of the name, I shall use a word that describes the color of the book: that color being Magenta. Jesus says that the entire law of Moses could be fulfilled in two commands. Those commands being, "Love others, and Love God." In the context of community, we both love others and are loved by others. I would like to expound upon this statement by imagining two postures: a receptive posture and a posture of distribution. In other words, we give love, and at other times we receive love.  Love is communicated from one person to another in many ways. If we don't understand what love looks like, it becomes easy to misidentify it. ...

Does Knowledge Puffeth Up?

Biblical Hermeneutics Why one might ask, is hermeneutics important? Have you ever heard the saying that knowledge puffeth up? It comes from 1 Corinthians 8:1 wherein which I have often heard it said to me as a form of discouragement due to my love of research and knowledge. The reason proposed is that knowledge makes you prideful; thus, knowledge is a dangerous pursuit for those not pastors. This idea is not only far from what Paul was trying to say, but it also contradicts statements like what is written in Hebrews 5:11-14. 1 Corinthians 8:1-13 "Knowledge puffs up, and love edifies" is best understood when read in its entirety and in comparison with "Acts 15:20; "Abstain from things contaminated by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood" which was written to Gentile believers and is the 4 rules that they had been given instead of being given the law as Jewish believers had insisted at the time. 1 Corinthians 8:1-13 is ...
