Yes, I'm retiring from my administrative duties as a Council Member and ML. No, I am not leaving the forum.

Because of my new job, college, and personal reasons, I felt it was time to the leave the administration. I did not leave because I had any sort of disagreement with the Council, the MLs, or Jay. I continue to support HW's purpose and leadership, and all decisions have or will make.

OK, now that we're done with the boring talk, let's be happy!

I just graduated from high school! I've been working my new job for five weeks, I love it, and I just discovered I'm being paid a differential I didn't know about! I've been accepted to the college I wanted, they offered me scholarships (which I accepted), and I'm super excited about my program.

Though I probably won't be spending more time on HW (and won't have time for any responsibilities) I will be able to post about Eartea more often this summer, before school starts.

Redemption is to be purchased, to have a price paid. So I was redeemed from my master sin, and from justice, which demanded my death. For He paid the price of sin by becoming sin, and met the demands of justice by dying for us.

For all men have a master. But a man cannot have two masters. For he will love one and hate the other. You cannot serve God and sin. So I die to the old, as He died, and I am resurrected to the new, as He was resurrected.

Note: Ebed is Hebrew for bondsman, Eleutheros is Greek for unrestrained (not a slave).

I'm glad good things are happening for you, Neil!

Thanks for everything you have done for Holy Worlds, and for all the time you have put into the forums. I'm glad you're not leaving completely!

I never really got to know you, but: God be with you. :)
God bless,

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Thanks for your encouragement! What God has done lately has certainly been a vast blessing for me.

I shall certainly try! Imagine, I've gone from the argumentative newbie with the crazy ideas to a Foundation Member. It's a satisfying irony. And yes, you'll still see me.

Never thought I'd be a purple one! Yes, I'm sticking around. I'm very sticky when it comes to this forum. I've actually tried to leave before, and it didn't work. As far as those awesome skills go, I learned from the best, and you're one of them.

Will miss seeing your white and yellow name about, Neil! Go with God, and may you continue to be an awesome witness of Him in all your endeavours from here on out. :D

I'm glad you'll still be around some, Neil. :wave: I've enjoyed the world building posts of yours that I've had the time to read.
