I am the way into the city of woe,
I am the way to a forsaken people,
I am the way into eternal sorrow.
Sacred justice moved my architect.
I was raised here by divine omnipotence,
primordial love and ultimate intellect.
Only those elements time cannot wear
were made before me, and beyond time I stand.
Abandon hope all ye who enter here.
-Dante's Inferno
Requirement 1 I was walking by and spotted this huge spider which reminded me of God's omnipotence because this creation that is so gross is interesting at the same time.
The word "Jesus" in Greek means Savior (Saviour), because he came into the world to save mankind for life vechnoy.Epitet "Almighty" written next to the name of Jesus Christ is, among other things, the dogma of the Incarnation: the title of the Almighty is in full as to the divine and the human nature of the Savior. The epithet usually refers to a sense of omnipotence, that is, the possibility to create everything, that is one of the prerogatives of God.
in the Nagasaki Peace Park. The associated sign reads:
This statue was erected by the citizens of Nagasaki in August 1955 on the 10th anniversary of the devastation of this city by the atomic bomb. Thanks to contributions from Japan and abroad, the ten meter bronze statue , which was designed by Seibo Kitamura, was dedicated as an appeal for lasting world peace and a prayer than such a tragedy would never be repeated.
The elevated right hand points to the threat of nuclear weapons, while the outstretched left hand symbolizes tranquillity and world peace. Divine omnipotence and love are embodied in the sturdy physique and gentle countenance of the statue, and a prayer for the repose of the souls of all war victims is expressed in the closed eyes. Furthermore, the folded right leg symbolizes quiet meditation, while the left leg is poised for action in assisting humanity.
“I am the way into the city of woe,
I am the way into eternal pain,
I am the way to go among the lost.
Justice caused my high architect to move,
Divine omnipotence created me,
The highest wisdom, and the primal love.
Before me there were no created things
But those that last forever—as do I.
Abandon all hope you who enter here.”
― Dante Alighieri, Inferno

Complete And Effective Divinity
"If we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection…" Romans 6:5
Co-Resurrection. The proof that I have experienced crucifixion with Jesus is that I have a definite likeness to Him. The Spirit of Jesus entering me rearranges my personal life before God. The resurrection of Jesus has given Him the authority to give the life of God to me, and the experiences of my life must now be built on the foundation of His life. I can have the resurrection life of Jesus here and now, and it will exhibit itself through holiness. The idea all through the apostle Paul’s writings is that after the decision to be identified with Jesus in His death has been made, the resurrection life of Jesus penetrates every bit of my human nature. It takes the omnipotence of God— His complete and effective divinity— to live the life of the Son of God in human flesh. The Holy Spirit cannot be accepted as a guest in merely one room of the house— He invades all of it. And once I decide that my “old man” (that is, my heredity of sin) should be identified with the death of Jesus, the Holy Spirit invades me. He takes charge of everything. My part is to walk in the light and to obey all that He reveals to me. Once I have made that important decision about sin, it is easy to “reckon” that I am actually “dead indeed to sin,” because I find the life of Jesus in me all the time (Romans 6:11). Just as there is only one kind of humanity, there is only one kind of holiness— the holiness of Jesus. And it is His holiness that has been given to me. God puts the holiness of His Son into me, and I belong to a new spiritual order.

The roofline photos. When I look at these in a group they are incredibly interesting. All that blue sky. All those sharp lines. However, I don’t feel like many, if any, of them stand on their own. This is OK. This is practice. And I think it speaks about a neighborhood. One house in a field can be argued lonely or incomplete; it is certainly out of place in a city. But a number of homes organized in a city block makes sense.
These photos don’t necessarily evoke the feeling of neighborhood or community. Still, something connects them. Besides the composition the practicality of the power lines might be the common denominator. As much as I hate the way they look they do, on more than one level, connect the neighborhood.
In this series I was mostly interested in the starkness of the roofline against the soft blue of the sky. I love that the roofs feel so omnipotent. They make me think of queens staring down from their towers. But I also think that they say omnipotence is lonely. Especially Rooflines 02. Maybe it is the just plain ugliness of that house but it is sad. I love it.
Even thought the arrangement of the photos in a group makes a neighborhood these photos don’t necessarily promote the feeling of a community. They are too lonely. It is like walking through Detroit post recession. The absence of human mark (other than the fact that these are manmade structures) strengthens the feeling of something bigger looming.
THE DIVINE PRESENCE
The Ashanti brass weight for weighing gold is remarkable both
for the technical skill shown in the "lost wax" casting process and for the richness of its religious symbolism. Some 450 different examples appear here. The geometric form, probably the oldest, clearly involved a method or counting, now lost. Later forms represented the animal, vegetable and human world familiar to the Ashanti. While some weights were used for actually weighing gold dust, others seem to have served more as status symbols, or as ornaments, charms and fetishes. All Ashanti gold belonged to the king, representing the nation, though commoners could hold it in trust and use it in trade. The symbolism of the weights constantly reminded the people of the omnipresence and omnipotence of the divinity from whom the king derived his authority. For the king's gold itself was the emblem of the sun, reflecting the light and life of the nation.
Geometric designs (right hand panel) went far beyond a numeral system (1). They took the form of varied sacred and royal symbols such as the double cross (2) of the sun god Nyankopon, the swastika (3), the signs of water (4) and fire (5). Animal and human shapes often served to depict morals and proverbs, such as the two crocodiles with a single stomach (6) left hand panel), representing the ideal family: many people united as a single entity. The snake (7) represented death, the frog (8) life. Also portrayed (center panel) were household furniture and utensils (9), farm tools (10), weapons and regalia of war (11) and, above all, the sacred stools and insignia of authority (12).
A comprehended God is no God.

The blessing across the bottom is classic Engrish - poorly spelt and makes no sense whatsoever. That frame is genuine gold-painted plastic. The sparkles give that realistic aura of omnipotence.
We start/row/raft from hardest(worst?) first, lest we don't get to (swim) to the coast. Was that how it sounds?
Morally speaking.... yea i forgot so much already.
I guess you should believe more in yourself.
Even if you do not believe in anything.
Or really. I guess sometimes you only have one talent, and it includes not communicating with whatever you deem of, utmost omnipotence.
...yea i am just trampling on everything's reliance on insecularity. Which probably conveniently benefit only with enough trial and tribulations, pressure points and alot of rude. The other one (not) here is, completely inexpandable, as we can see still, regardless of uh... efforts..."efforts".
