it is true that regis is a vampire, but baptism of fire is like the least vampire vampire media.
there’s no turning (vampires are a species) there’s no forever-youth (middle aged) there’s no biting (not gonna) there’s no hunting (no such thing as vampire hunters) there’s no burning in the sun (can’t) there’s no christianity (based) there’s no inviting in (he invites them in) there’s no water barriers (river barge) there’s no vampire society (don’t have one) there’s no extravagant balls (they’re disorganized)
there’s not even any drinking blood ‘cause the cunt’s dry as a stone. respect
you get one long monologue about how all of this is bullshit fabricated by human society who are too scared of their own dicks to act normally. psycho-fuckin-analyzed

The Mission of John the Baptist (Isaiah 40:1–5; Mark 1:1–8; Luke 3:1–20; John 1:19–28)
1 In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea 2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.” 3 This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah:
“A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him.’”
4 John wore a garment of camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey. 5 People went out to him from Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region around the Jordan. 6 Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan.
7 But when John saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his place of baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8 Produce fruit, then, in keeping with repentance. 9 And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 10 The axe lies ready at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
11 I baptize you with waterd for repentance, but after me will come One more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit. 12 His winnowing fork is in His hand to clear His threshing floor and to gather His wheat into the barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
The Baptism of Jesus (Mark 1:9–11; Luke 3:21–22; John 1:29–34)
13 At that time Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. 14 But John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?”
15 “Let it be so now,” Jesus replied. “It is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness in this way.” Then John permitted Him.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, He went up out of the water. Suddenly the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and resting on Him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased!” — Matthew 3 | Majority Standard Bible (MSB) The Majority Standard Bible is in the public domain.

However careless and indifferent the baptized may be in their subsequent life, this indwelling presence of the Spirit is never totally withdrawn. But unless we co-operate with God's grace -- unless, through the exercise of our free will, we struggle to perform the commandments -- it is likely that the Spirit's presence within us will remain hidden and unconscious. As pilgrims on the Way, then, it is our purpose to advance from the stage where the grace of the Spirit is present and active within us in a hidden way, to the point of conscious awareness, when we know the Spirit is present and active within us in a hidden way, to the point of conscious awareness, when we know the Spirit's power openly, directly, with the full perception of our heart. 'I am come to cast fire on the earth,' Christ said, 'and how I wish it were already kindled!' (Luke 12:49). The Pentecostal spark of the Spirit, existing in each one of us from Baptism, is to be kindled into a living flame. We are to become what we are.

Hidden Wisdom
“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.” 1Corinthians 2:7-8KJV
Do we know that God has set in order for us to know things which satan has no idea about? Let me give you an example from David Herzog, pastor, missionary, evangelist from Arizona. Taken from a sermon, as he talked with a native pastor in an area of high persecution and death of Christians? — Herzog— How have you managed to survive without persecution and death in your churches. — Pastor— We pray in tongues to receive the secret wisdom of God of when and where to meet. Those persecuted churches meet at regular times and places. Holy Spirit shows us what to do as we pray in tongues.
A few years back, a group of Believers were killed for not renouncing Jesus. Another group of new Believers were told their children would all be killed in the morning if they didn’t renounce Christ. These new Believers didn’t even have a Bible to read. They asked God to protect them and their children. He sent angels to care for the entire situation. I can’t remember exactly, but I believe the intended murders left them alone.
Another local pastor sought God as to why the one group was murdered and the other group was safe. I will never forget Yahweh’s answer, (not word for word but close). ‘The group which died had My Word. My Words would’ve saved them. This other group were new Believers with no Holy Scriptures only faith in Me.’
One group lived because of faith in Yahweh. Another group lived because of faith in God’s gift of tongues. They trusted the mysteries of God, “hidden wisdom.”
My parents had gone to California to stay a few months with my brother. Dad fell and went to the hospital. He had congestive heart failure. Doctors didn’t know if he would live the night. Brother was scared. He called telling me to get out there asap to see him before he died. We didn’t have money for an emergency airline ticket unless I was positive I knew I had to go. I began to pray in tongues, seeking God’s wisdom for the situation. Three hours passed when a thought came into my mind— ‘where does your dad want to die?’ I responded, ‘at home.’ Another thought came into my mind— ‘I give My children the desires of their hearts.’ When I called my brother, he was incredulous. How could I be so sure? Dad didn’t die for another ten years. He didn’t die at his house but he died in his hometown.
What we’re entering into in this country will take the “hidden wisdom” of God to navigate. Yahweh Adonai wants to supply His children with this knowledge, but He has to circumvent satan out of the radar of knowing what is going on. Think it is not so? Remember— “had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory,” meaning the realms of satan’s rule were clueless to what God was up to through the crucifixion of Jesus.
Friend, if you’ve never sought the baptism of Holy Spirit before, listen to John Bevere’s five lessons on speaking in tongues on youtube. He can best instruct you as to how and why to receive. God’s gift is free for everyone who asks…. “If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” Luke 11:13ESV. It’s your choice. You choose.
LET’S PRAY: LORD God awaken Your children who have not received to the delights and wonders of having more of You through Holy Spirit indwelling them and empowering them, in the name of Jesus the Christ I pray.

crack theory: what if the abyss twin isn't a descender because they're an ascender?
Tumblr media
#you know if the world is like upside down because celestia created gods named after demons... like hell....#i know this is dumb and that the concept of descender is people who enter the world teyvat is located in right?#but also what if going to the land away from the heavenly principals' eyes and becoming one with the land of the people#counts as not being an outlander#the irminsul is also technically part of the 'light realm' right?#how to make sense of that and the samsara cycles?#supposedly we're living through the fourth cycle (first half) and that cycle is called khraun-arya... similar to khaenri'ah...#the text at the tower of the narzissenkreuz ordo says the human spirit undergoes loss of paradise then defeat of evil dragons then original#sin and baptism and then freedom from the gods#this is massive!!! not only big picture wise but also in the way it perfectly describes the fontaine arc#and khaenri'ah still exists these are very much very similar concepts too#i think the end of our journey might be trying to break the samsara cycles once and for all? as long as they continue then any nation#who disobeys celestia will fall#what does this have to do with my original point? no idea actually agjshs#but what if this isn't like the first time the twins are in teyvat?#also the fact we have a twin and twins is such a common theme in genshin is so!!!! is one of the twins created after the other?#this is too much for my pea brain#please don't take anything of what i said seriously this is just a random post with my thoughts while i was drinking tea#the twins are just so intriguing#it's also curious that there's two shades of phanes we know nothing about#we know of istaroth and the shade of life but there's two left#them there's the weird melusine lines about paimon and the traveller#paimon having a string connecting her beyond the sky wasn't even the most surprising#the melusine saying they see the traveller as a monster that could swallow the world whole in a single bite is so !!!!#i think it's safe to say from the way the twins use the elements that they're above archons in terms of power scaling and hierarchy#whatever that means#paimon being a puppet just wouldn't surprise me but i don't think paimon is fooling us she might just be as clueless as we are tbh#she could even be some sort of being like furina was to egeria as far as we know#okay i'll shut up now because I'm not saying anything that makes sense or actually being productive 😂#genshin thoughts

Ephesians 4:4-6 (WEB) - There is one body and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all, and in us all.
