In his ministerial work, Pastor Michael has authored a book titled “RELATIONSHIP GOALS: How to Win at Dating, Marriage, and Sex”. You can find his sermons online on Michael Todd Book He often gives sermons that go viral with the aim of serving in the most relevant and progressive ways. ![]() For instance, on tithes and offerings in the church, he delivered a sermon titled “Wait till I get my money right”, which in turn led to over 250 members became tithers to the ministry. He reaches the community from all walks of life with his moving non-traditional series. This led Pastor Mike to add another service for the overflow crowds. That’s called modalism! □□□ /aTdDDUcoSh- Biblical and Reformed JNot many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.Since Pastor Natalie and Michael took over the church’s leadership, membership has grown largely. God the Father, God the Son, and God help me the Holy. You’re about to see evidence of the power of the Holy Spirit. But it takes on a completely different form.Īnd this is what God is about to do in your life. So if that was God the Father, God the Son, this is God the Holy Spirit. It’s dry ice, and it’s a different expression. So when your drink is too warm, you don’t put more water in it -it’s H₂O- but you put a different expression of H₂O into your drink. Now, it’s in a different form than the liquid version, but…this is a different expression. If we go down to its basic form, this is H₂O. What is this? (Congregants: Ice.) You say ‘ice’. Let me ask you a different question…We established this is H₂O. That’s what we say, but if you want to be very scientific, this is H₂O. ![]() Say like you mean it ‘one God, three expressions. Okay, let me. This assertion is commonly known as the heresy of Modalism, a doctrine of demons if there ever was one, where all three members of the Godhead are not understood to be three distinct persons but rather expressions of one being, rather than three modes or manifestations.Īmusingly, he ends up teaching an even worse heresy than Modalism because the chemical composition of dry ice is not H₂O but rather CO₂, which is two carbon atoms bonded to one oxygen atom, unlike the one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms of steam, water, and ice. Now, in a teaching video, Mike Todd uses vats of water, ice, and dry ice to show that in the same way these are all “expressions” of H₂O, just in a different form, so are the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost “expressions” of God. He’s also known for frequently appearing on Preachers n Sneakers Instagram account for wearing insanely expensive clothing and for giving the world perhaps the grossest illustration in church after he snorted and then hocked a loogie full of spit and snot into his hand and rubbed it in another man’s face. He also gave away a million dollars in a recent sermon series. In the last two years, he’s given away $3,500,000 in houses, cash, and cars, spent $65,000 to buy 168 pairs of shoes, gave $600,000 away in “reparations” and purchased a real estate complex for over $20,000,000, and then another for $35,000,000. Transformation Church’s Lead Pastor Michael Todd is known for crowd surfing during his church’s worship service and spending a lot of money. Pastor Mike Todd of Transformation church has joined the fray- giving an even worse analogy and illustration of what the Trinity is while continuing to show he has no business leading or teaching anyone. ![]() Earlier in the week, Tony Evans appeared at the 2022 Southern Baptist Convention and engaged in the heresy of Modalism by describing the Trinity as a Pretzel. ![]()

Funny story: When my kids were younger, they would beg to go to Walmart with me. ![]() ![]() In The Force Awakens, Abrams shows that he’s taken careful notes on the moves that Lucas pulled out in A New Hope but seemed to have forgotten in the three execrable prequels that began with 1999’s The Phantom Menace. (He is also, lest we forget, responsible for directing the most colourlessly competent entry in the Mission: Impossible series.) He didn’t grow up watching Depression-vintage Flash Gordon serials, he grew up watching Star Wars – and, of course, reruns of Star Trek, another beloved and beleaguered franchise on which he did an adequate enough rehab job to land this gig. The examples of the Stevens and Korda films – both propagandistic, boisterous pieces of Victoriana extolling the image of Brave Little England as she prepared for the Blitz – are most pertinent to A New Hope, for they are the sort of things that a young George Lucas would have watched on television in suburban Modesto, lifting their brash can-do heroism and acrobatic derring-do for the children of ’77.Ībrams is 49, which puts him right smack in the middle of the generational cohort I discussed above. (The nearest equivalent might be the Rocky saga, recently revived to deserved acclaim by Ryan Coogler.) For a young person today to be swept up in the mania surrounding Star Wars is equivalent to a child in 1977 swearing allegiance to the Charlie Chan, Mr Moto and Mr Wong franchises, Andy Hardy pictures, George Stevens’s Gunga Din, Zoltan Korda’s The Four Feathers or any other product of the late 1930s. Incoming generations traditionally disdain the toys of the last, but these movies have continued to hold an almost sacrosanct place in the popular imagination that is practically unique and, I confess, baffling to this child of the Reagan administration. Its lasting impact on viewers who were adolescent or younger at the time is easy to understand if you look at the contemporary pop-culture landscape – if you were after exotic, rambunctious escapism, George Lucas was the best game in town, apart from maybe Gene Simmons, and I could never impugn a Gen X-er’s undying fondness for either. The first Star Wars film was released more than 38 years ago – a long time ago in a culture far, far away. It is, you see, much, much bigger.ĭistributor Buena Vista International (UK)Īnd, yes, The Force Awakens is much, much bigger than A New Hope. There is even a new planet-smashing Death Star called the Starkiller Base, though the film makes some effort to establish that it is different from the old Death Star. As the film ends, Rey sets off to train with a reclusive Jedi master – Skywalker himself, who we’ve seen enter into much the same student-mentor relationship with Yoda. Here it’s Rey ( Daisy Ridley), who like Luke Skywalker before her happens into the company of Han Solo ( Harrison Ford, among many stars returning to their roles), discovers that she is strong with the Force and has to face off against a masked warrior of the Dark Side, Kylo Ren ( Adam Driver), the son of Solo and Princess – now General – Leia ( Carrie Fisher) and grandson of Darth Vader. Once again the key character is an orphaned youth living on a backwater desert planet who is suddenly thrust into the heart of an intergalactic conflict after stumbling across an adorable droid carrying contraband information. Abrams-directed seventh entry in the franchise, the first part of a new sequel trilogy, contains a great deal that is familiar from George Lucas’s foundational 1977 text A New Hope. Star Wars: The Force Awakens gives the legions of fans of the franchise what they want – exactly what they want, in so far as anyone can be certain, and a lot of it. ![]() Spoiler alert: this review outlines plot points including the last scene of the film. ![]() ![]() ![]() This guarantee does not apply to TurboTax Free.

Take the key out of the door and try starting your car’s engine. It is best to try both methods: holding the key in the door, as well as turning the key both ways to disable the anti-theft system. There are some cars that will recognize the key from you simply turning it back and forth in the door’s cylinder. This will signal to your car’s system that you have the right key, and will enable you to bypass your car’s alarm system. Hold the key for 30 seconds in this position. Step 2: Turn the vehicle key to unlock the car door without releasing it. Look for a button that allows you to slide the physical key out of the fob. Tip: Most, if not all, key fobs have a physical key within the fob. Even if you have a keyless car and do not typically use your physical key, use the side door on the driver’s side and insert the physical key into the lock. Step 1: Insert the key into the door lock. Method 3: Insert the key into your car’s door Try to do these steps a second time to see if that does the trick. If you are still unsure what the issue is, consider contacting one of Pop-A-Lock’s expert locksmiths. If your car still won’t start, make sure that the issue you’re experiencing isn’t a dead battery. Put your key back into the ignition and turn the car all the way on. ![]() This allows the system to fully reset itself, or your car won’t start. If it is no longer blinking, turn the key to the “off” position and let your car sit for a couple of minutes. Step 3: Do a secondary check on the anti-theft light. Insert your car key into the ignition and turn it on just so that the accessories activate, but not the engine. When this light is on and flashing (it will be either or blue), it will indicate that your car’s anti-theft system is activated. The icon for the anti-theft system looks like a car and a lock combination. Most modern cars have a dash light that indicates that the anti-theft system has been triggered. To disable the system and start your car, use the following steps. If your engine has been locked up by the anti-theft system, you will be unable to start the vehicle. Tip: Valet keys frequently have a different colored head, or a “V” inscribed on the key shaft. Though valet keys can unlock your door, they do not have a chip, and therefore cannot start your car. It may seem ridiculous, but many vehicles have a valet door or key that performs only the function of unlocking a door. Step 3: Check to make sure that you are using the right key to get your car started. If you find that the lock is damaged, the passenger side cylinder can also be used to shut off the anti-theft system. Check to see if the lock cylinder is damaged, and also check underneath the door handle – thieves have been known to use screwdrivers in an attempt to jimmy the door open. If your vehicle has been damaged, during an attempted break-in or theft or otherwise, the anti-theft system might have been triggered. Keep in mind that your key fob might not be dead, but the battery is simply not installed correctly. It is fairly common for the anti-theft system on a car to activate if your key fob is dead – a dead key fob is one that your car cannot “see”. If you find that you are in a situation where your car’s anti-theft device stops working properly, keep reading for three ways to shut off the alarm yourself. If you have a damaged door lock, it might be smart to consider hiring a Pop-A-Lock locksmith. If the anti-theft system is not working properly, then you will have to find a way to shut off the system manually so that your car can resume normal operation.

In recent years, there has been a wide push against the ship, with many young fans on Twitter including the phrase “SebaCiel DNI” (indicating they do not want the shippers to interact with them) in their profiles. The popularity of the ship, combined with some undertones in the animated series, led some to believe that the story was primarily about an adult/child romantic relationship - although according to the author, this is not the case.

Regardless, the quality of the Match 3 play is second to none. Indeed, while children and purely casual players may enjoy them, many more will likely find them unnecessary and perhaps even bothersome. These peripheral puzzles will take one of several forms – spot the difference, hidden object, and the like – yet few will ever present a serious obstacle to the adult gamer.

When you first fire up 4 Elements II, this whole Match 3 notion seems very far away indeed. It's a gentle approach that even younger children will appreciate but more mature gamers might find a bit immature. The music is generally soft and soothing, and there's nothing to offend the sensibilities of impressionable minds. It's all magic and castles and innocence.

New_list = my_list # Create a duplicate list In this section, I'm gonna list a few list indexing idioms that I've found useful. Let's try a -1 step size and see what happens: print my_list Now comes my favorite part (and why python is awesome): You can use negative step sizes, for reversing the list traversal. You can get even numbers between 4 and 40 using: my_list # note that the numbers are indices, it's easy to confuse it with actual values. If you want only even numbers, the step size can be 2 my_list The default step size is one - it gets all the elements. ![]() Of course, if you leave start_index and end_index blank, python assumes its 0 and len(my_list). The step size is specified after the end-index, preceded by a colon. So a step size of 1 tells python to pick every element, a step size of 2 means pick alternate elements, and so on. Step Size specifies with element to pick while indexing. We can do that using range(100), like so: my_list = range(100) Let's take a list that contains the first 100 numbers, starting from 0. Just creates a reference to old_list, but new_list = old_listĬreates a copy of the old_list. Note that the last example is often used to create duplicate lists. Print example # treated it as example -> prints Print example # treated as example -> prints If you leave out the end index it's assumed to be the length of the list. If you leave out the start index, it's assumed to be zero.
