Indeed - I don't quit the forums where you have before...hundreds of times; so of course it'll seem like encouragement to you when someone stays on these forums :roll:

Today in Christian History in 1792 Joseph Mohr wrote the Christmas Carol Silent Night. Here is a verse from the original lyrics.

Holy night! Peaceful night!
Through the darkness beams a light
Yonder, where they sweet vigils keep
O’er the babe, who, in silent sleep,
Rests in heavenly peace.

We need to unite under the true APN, Stalwart. It is time to stop Jumalariik's raider secularist empire.

Oh, no, you just called the new republic a raider secularist empire. That means it must be true.

Get over yourself.

Do you think this is a good idea?

Getting over your enormous ego? Yes.

I must have missed the revelation when the APN was appointed to speak for all Christians...

Perhaps it looked like this, from their special NationStates version of the Bible:

The ~~virgin’s~~ region's name was ~~Mary~~ The Alliance of Protestant Nations. And he came to her and said, “Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you.” But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. 30 The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, ~~Mary~~ The Alliance of Protestant Nations, for you have found favor with God.

Today in 1841, John Ryles was ordained in the the Church of England.

IT IS LIKELY that John Charles Ryle would not have become a clergyman if his family had not lost all their wealth in a single day. When Ryle’s father could not say “no” to a friend and worsened his finances through speculation, Ryle had to scrap his plans for a political career. As a result, a friend wrote, “John Ryle will be ordained on December 12th, and preaches his first sermon on the 19th.” The ordination took place at Farnham Castle, the home of Bishop Charles Sumner of Winchester, on this day, 12 December 1841. Twenty-five-year-old Ryle became a leading evangelical in the Church of England.

The ego that makes you think that anyone who opposes you opposes the entirety of Christianity.

Good lord, the last thing we need is a holy war between Christians.

It might relieve some of the monotony and boredom of NS.

The Bible passage for today is Jeremiah 23:5-6, a prophecy fortelling the coming of Christ as a king.

5 The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch,
and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
6 In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety.
And this is the name by which he will be called: ‘The Lord is our righteousness.’

This week's hymn is Joy to the World.

That has nothing to do with gameplay, so should not be posted here.

I'm just bumping the thread. It's been more than 24 hours and I thought there was enough other content in the thread. I just thought posting bible verses would be a nicer thing to do than just saying "Bump".

I'll stop if you want.

It's best to post gameplay-relevant news if you want to bump your thread (how's the region doing, what's been going on there?). It may seem odd, but a bump is actually preferable to a bible verse that could lead to a threadjack.

I'll have to figure out some activity for us to do. Thank you for the advice.
