Hello Everyone. Now Ive not been sure how to formulate this, but will atempt to make myself understandable. So, I could have just made a short goodbye message, but for you whom know the slightest about me, would know that I tend to have an urgency to not keep explenations short, wether it be important topics or entirely insignificant once. But, will try my best to make it short. First for those who dont know, Im Ruben, Im 19 years old from Norway. Im a christian (Pentecostal christian, a lot like Southern Baptists, although what matters is not the The name of the religious organisation, but wether youre a living christian or not). Im now writing my farewells from this community and my account and about my belief concerning this decision. Im speaking in view of my christian life, incase you find my formulation or thoughts a bit off. I would also like to add I have been saved for about 2 years. And that this decision has been on my mind for a while. (did not just come over night) Now, to go in terms of AQW, some of you know me as Harry Potter Junior, most of you know I namechanged to Zelysium. That I now am in the Guild Stars (been there a few weeks) formerly Canned Christmas after Rain of shadows in Artix. (throughout 2013) The reason Im quitting is of two-three reasons, the first is how easy I (although probs any other person in this community aswell) can become influenced online to the worse from what I/you are in rl, looking at how I myself can act or have acted online. Its not about wether Im decent or sincere or even a nice guy there. Its mainly just about a few things Ive done, which Im not very proud of. (whereby multi logging and the WoD glitching which I have repaid every penny on is not one of them). Which would not cross my mind twice to do in rl. Just things like swearing, or lustfull flirting acts. Its Because when youre online you get more freedom, more space to especially say things that you might no longer do in rl, and Im now spesifically reffering to those who practice chatting on aqw obv. Sure, I concider myself honest, but aqw, most people aswell as I, have seeked to get some sort of name, or just being proud over what you have attained. Its nothing but pixel dust in the long run. And one of the reasons I havent quit earlier is simply because Ive managed to seperate my mind from this having to do anything with my rl, but it really does when it gets on your conscious and onward to your life in Christ. (and when I say your, Im mostly reffering to myself incase of misunderstandings) Second reason is the fact that my Bible says All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 1. Cor 6:12 In simple English, Addiction. Ofc there are different lvls of addiction but when it leads you away from your Christian life, Prayer, worship and bible reading, God forbit it! And thirdly, when I go back to school this upcomming semester in a couple weeks, I do not concider myself to have enough time to asociate myself with aqw and that community while striving for the hollyness that god has called us to in the life of Jesus Christ. And incase you misunderstood I dont deem aqw to send you to hell, thats not it. Neither am I speaking of legalism. But, playing a meaningless game, for meaningless purposes when I can rather read scripture, pray, worship and give all glory to God? This might be far from your mind and Im not Judging anyone (glad I can safely leave that to God), but this is what my life in Christ desires. Now Il have struggles with my flesh for as long as I live, but Ive made a decision that lukewarmness because of online games will not be one of them. That being said I have no regrets regards to my history in aqw as its written; Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those those things which are before. I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus Philippians 3:13-14 (KJV) Regret leads to nothing but despair. For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 2. Cor 7:10 (KJV) Ive gotten to know a bunch of nice people throughout my 5 years in aqw, though the only once left are those I met in earliest 2013. Not leaving any taggs but each and everyone of you should know who you are. I leave these verses to you. (and ofc whoever else might be reading) 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:16-18 (KJV) I dont know Wether ye be Muslim, Atheist or selfproclaimed or a living Christian. But Take this in concideration throughout your lives wether you believe it or not. You have none but yourself to blame, if you end up somwhere you do not wish for when you die. (1. Tim 1:15, Rom. 3:23-25, Ephesians 2:5, 2. Cor 6:2, 1. John 1:7 and most important Romans 10:9-10) Now, I do not desire any dicussion full of arguments despite of posible religious differences of those reading. Even though some of you might have twisted opinions about me after reading this. (concidering you actually read past the part where I mentioned Christian) But if there is anything regards to my belief youre so eager to point out, Il answer you through scripture only, before I leave this account mainly inactive (Meaning: If I were to Logg back on, it would not be of any game purposes) Oh, and my AQW account will be left over in AEs hands surely with a password I wont remember. So I hope and pray that God may pull you toward him so that you may know the truth so that the truth can set you free. And May God bless you all!
