  • Re: Overwatch: Overdue For A Ban!


    With all due respect, it's important to realize this is a video game. The people that play said game are doing so for nothing more than stress relief. The people that made Overwatch gladly did so to express themselves. You wouldn't get angry at Leonardo DiVinci for making the Mona Lisa, so don't discredit Blizzard's (the company who made the game) hard work. Rather than trying to read into it as find something that isn't there, take it for what it is. It brings people together through online gaming. Even something like this can be used as a platform to preach the Gospel to others. Video games start a conversation that can lead to Christ. I hope you take my opinion into account, but I understand if you disagree. Thank you all, and God bless you.

      We are not angry at Mr. Da Vinci. God is! Mr. Da Vinci was a confirmed sodomite and a Papist - a combination that has been the prevalent form of Opposition to God over the last two Millennia. The harlot depicted in Mr. Da Vinci's infamous painting is actually based on a male partner in fornication!
      Mona Lisa’s iconic smile was based on Leonardo Da Vinci’s probable gay lover, an art historian has claimed.

      Following his examinations, Silvano Vinceti believes the artwork is an amalgamation of two models: a rich Florentine merchant’s wife, Lisa Gherardini, and da Vinci’s apprentice Gian Giacomo Caprotti, known to the artist as Salai, or Little Devil.
      Thus, this portrait depicts a she-male to confuse ignorant unbelievers and false Christians!

      Deuteronomy 22:5
      The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

      Had we been around when Mr. Da Vinci painted his abominations, we would surely have tried to get him to Repent, but as things stand, we have little doubt that he ended up in Hell.

      But, I am happy that we agree on something! We have been successfully using the revolting nature of this game to preach the Gospel to the uneducated massess and I'm quite sure that we've accomplished quite a few conversions! This game is one example of pure evil that has to be exposed! Glory!

      Ecclesiastes 9:3
      This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one event unto all: yea, also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

      In the End, we're sure that our Labor of Love will not have been in vain. Many souls will have been Saved to Jesus. Perhaps you'll be one of them!




      Yours in Christ,

        You have not posted any Scripture. Here's a passage you could have used:

        EZRA 10 . KJV . look up
        10
        Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
        11 Now therefore make confession unto the LORD God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives.
        12 Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, As thou hast said, so must we do.


        Leonardo da Vinci was a catholic so obviously no Christian would accept his work even if it did not involve creating blasphemous images. And no-one who accepted the teaching of The Bible would have associated with him. But the point really is that believers are commanded..I will repeat that: COMMANDED..to separate from, not come together with, hooligans of other faiths. Have you ever met an animist? Hooligan barely covers the extent of their superstitions and drum-banging and waving-around-of-arms not to mention the legs how could you witness to an animist with this going on.

        You couldn't. "But," the gamer may riposte "the passage you've suggested applies to a particular circumstance 2½ millennia ago which no longer applies!" Someone forgot to tell God. Let's see what the foundational literature of Christianity says:

        II CORINTHIANS 6 . KJV . look up
        14b
        what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
        14c What communion hath light with darkness?
        15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
        16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
        17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,


        Bringing people together through activities which we are commanded to shun whether by pretending that all belief systems have merit or grovelling to idols or celebrating Belial in a crackhouse is not something that ANY Christian would EVER do. Therefore, it follows, no Christian could ever endorse a "game" such as the Overwatch and we at Landover take our responsibility seriously, to show what God has stated on the matter supported by Scripture and whether you agree with God or not surely you cannot dispute what He has actually said. Can you?

          Firstly, God bless you too.

          Secondly, I pray that you find the environment in hell hospitable.

          Please be aware that God is not a hippy. He's a warmonger who has proven Himself perfectly capable of destroying entire species that displease Him. With that in mind, your appeals for mercy and transparent attempts to misguide us through your manipulative "kindness" and apparent openness will not work on us.

          I see that you are gently trying to lead us into temptation by playing down the role of video games in sin. Forget our educated, scholarly, Biblical analysis of Overwatch for a moment. Have you even heard of the Commandments? Have you heard of a little rule called "thou shalt not kill"? It can be found at Exodus 20:13 in your Holy KJV. What is Overwatch if not a cheap and nasty little murder simulator? Video games are nothing but interactive instructional videos on sinning! Video gaming consoles are mind control machines born from the rectum of satan himself!

          But, fear not, friend, for we have the Armor of God™* and your satanic trickery is hopeless (Ephesians 6:11).

          *This item cannot be found in your mother's basement, no matter how many dragons you slay or quests you complete.
          But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, till there was no remedy. (2 Chronicles 36:16)

            First off, I just want to say that I'm probably wrong on this point, having not reached the end of the bible yet, but I have only seen few instances of God being destructive, though I do feel he acts merciful in many situations too. Though I may be wrong, so I was just wondering if somebody could provide some scripture to a point where God acts with no mercy. I don't mean to start an argument here, this is genuinely a question of faith.


            Many thanks.

              Don't be silly. Faith isn't strengthened or weakened based on answers to questions. Either one has it, and questions become moot, or one doesn't, and no question will satisfy. Friend, if you're looking for a logical reason to have or hang on to faith, you won't find it in the Bible! You have to look into your heart.
              Hello, my name is Mary. I hope to fellowship with you! That is, unless you don't listen to church authority (Deuteronomy 17:12); are a witch (Exodus 22:17); are a homosexual (Leviticus 20:13; Romans 1:24-32); or fortuneteller (Leviticus 20:27) or a snotty kid who hits their dad (Exodus 21:15); or curses their parents (Proverbs 20:20; Leviticus 20:9); an adulterer (Leviticus 20:10); a non-Christian (Exodus 22:19; Deuteronomy 13:7-12; Deuteronomy 17:2-5;Romans 1:24-32); an atheist (2 Chronicles 15:12-13); or false prophet (Zechariah 13:3); from the town of one who worships another, false god (Deuteronomy 13:13-19); were a non-virgin bride (Deuteronomy 22:20-21); or blasphemer (Leviticus 24:10-16), as God calls for your execution and will no doubt send you to Hell, and I have no interest developing a friendship with the Spiritually Walking Dead.

                I think I understand it... I just want to dispel any doubts, and I suppose not questioning it is the right way to go


                Like I said, I haven't finished reading the bible yet, but I honestly hope that my faith gets stronger. Thanks for the advice, and God be with you, Mary.

                  Oh God is with me, dear. And He's with you, too. He sees you when you're sleeping. He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been good or bad. He knows when you touch yourself at night. He knows the thoughts you have even before they creep up into your consciousness and you become aware of them. And throughout, He is judging you, keeping tabs on all you do, you fail to do, you think, and even that which you fail to think. This He will use against you on your Day of Judgement (2 Corinthians 5:10).

                  The only way to avoid the punishment that is due (eternal damnation), is to get Him to forget about it all. The only way to do that is to have faith in Jesus (Hebrews 8:12). There is no other way. There are no tricks, no loopholes, no shortcuts. If you do not have faith, you will be judged for your sins and you will be punished and will suffer for eternity (Matthew 13:42). If you do have faith, your sins will be ignored and you will join the chorus of angels praising Jesus forever and ever (see Revelation chapter 19 for more)! Understanding the Bible has nothing to do with it, dear. Believing it to be true does.

                    That's settled it for me, I'm going to finish reading and start believing. Just so I can check that I have it right, it's the KJV that I need to read, right? Just checking, because I've been reading that one and I've reached the book of Galatians.


                    If I have it right, then I'll be going to read a bit more soon

                        Lotso, can I advice you to read the sub-forum "Bible in a Year"? Brother V and Brother Elmer, among many others (including the marvellous Martin J. Goethwathever) do a great job analyzing the Bible there, from scratch.
                        It is a very lonely task to read the Bible, and you are in risk of getting distracted by Satan and his minions. So following the footsteps of other True Christians is indeed very useful.


                        When I started my path to becoming a True Christian, I was dumb as dumb can be. I had a noticeable retardation (I was partially injun until cured by my faith in God) and I could not understand the American language (my papist parents educated me in a dialect of messican)


                        That sub-forum brought the light of Jesus to my face, and I have never left the path that leads to salvation ever since.


                        Hope you find your path, too.
                        1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the TRUMP of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.

I'm not going to go through everything wrong with what he said because it's 99% wrong and I don't like staying on crazy Christian sites. Play the game yourself or watch the lore videos on YouTube to see that this guy is spitting ****. Whatever his reason is for hating on Overwatch, I can tell you it is not sound....for Gods' sake (not wrong look it up, your god talks to other gods in the bible) the bible is more F'ed up than most games now days. Incest galore and details on murder/ death in battle. Anyway I'm done with this site, ban me for all I care because I'm done. Final word, SenSen means forest so don't think like a Christian and take it like your definition of sin. I'm not gay but I find it funny to see this emoji on your site.

                              In which language?! Usually these gamer cultists use some random Japanese or Korean words to give their harmful practices some exotic atmosphere. Let us see:
                              • Japanese: Forest = 森林 [shinrin]
                              • Korean: Forest= 숲[sup]

                              OK. Failure. What does "sensen" actually mean? If you had a working knowledge of Japanese you would know that it is written 宣戦 and it means "Declaration of War"!



                              OK. This is what we were expecting. Declaration or war. Against Jesus and everything that is good and innocent. A War against Jesus Christ. I suppose I should thank you for giving us one more reason to oppose this extremely harmful game! You are with the Dragon!

                              Revelation 12:7
                              And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

I'm for freedom of religion but when your religion starts to push into my life, then we have problems. I'm not going to go through everything wrong with what he said because it's 99% wrong and I don't like staying on crazy Christian sites. Play the game yourself or watch the lore videos on YouTube to see that this guy is spitting ****. Whatever his reason is for hating on Overwatch, I can tell you it is not sound....for Gods' sake (not wrong look it up, your god talks to other gods in the bible) the bible is more F'ed up than most games now days. Incest galore and details on murder/ death in battle. Anyway I'm done with this site, ban me for all I care because I'm done. Final word, SenSen means forest so don't think like a Christian and take it like your definition of sin. I'm not gay but I find it funny to see this emoji on your site.
                                I love the "I'm for freedom of religion except for the religions that bother me".
                                Yes, the laws should be centered around what YOU like or dislike.


                                That is what happens when you don't have a God. Then everything is centered around you. How many times have you used the word "I" in your paragraph?


                                Less "I" and more "God" is what I want to see in the youth of today.


                                When you put the stress on the "I", then you have to study in college, make progress in life, and be succesful.


                                And if you cannot you start demanding that someone else give what you want to you, so you become a democrat.


                                When you give yourself to God, you KNOW that he will provide. If you are succesful, you know you are doing well with Him. If you are unsuccesful, then you know He hates you.


                                Either way you keep on voting Republican.
