The dimensions of storytelling.
0D: the idea/starting point. The origin of the world and its plot.
1D: plot progression. Where the main plot is expanded.
2D: world expansion, branching plot, and subplots. Where the world gets bigger, the main journey diverges and other journeys begin.
3D: world lore and humanization. Expanded lore on people, places, and things. Expanded emotional layers.
4D: the overview and summarization. The world as a whole in its own time frame and the summary of its narrative.
5D: World rules(reality bending T1). Explains world phenomenon and mysterious events.
6D: reality bending T2. The main idea stays relatively the same, as well as some characters, but reality has shifted, causing diverse detail changes and story differences;an alternate reality.
6D types:
The line: The plot follows linear motion down the chosen path.
Transition: The plot splits between two options, one of which wouldn't have happened within the linear playthrough but has happened. Example: Henry Stikmin. Scene: Fleeing the Complex; call toppats or government. In the previous game, Infiltrating the Airship, you either helped the government or joined the toppats.
Shift types:
Timeline shift: The timeline splits from an existing point, but the main story is a single narrative branching from the plot.
Timeline bending: Bend the main plot to your will to create an alternate event and storyline that doesn't happen in the original or was meant to happen much later/earlier.
7D: All worlds and their possibilities viewed from a higher plane.

"Let's say someone who accepts Jesus but rapes and murders, goes to jail, and at the end of their life accepts Jesus. But my grandpa, who is a great person morally, is Jewish but doesn't accept Jesus. He goes to hell and burns for eternity but the person who rapes and murders people and accepts Jesus goes to heaven. That just doesn't seek right to me."

What happens when you litter? Community service. What happens when you get caught with drugs? House arrest. What happens when you murder? Prison. All of these represent hell. They're all a form of punishment. An unrepentant heart that doesn't accept Jesus as their only way to freedom will obviously pay the price of their crime themselves. Only Jesus can satisfy the weight of our crimes. So, an unrepentant litter bug will pay the price for their crime, whereas the repentant murderer's crime will be paid in full.Imagine if heaven was based on our doings. Imagine someone trying to work off 40 years of evil with 14 years left. It would be impossible. No one would be saved, or if they are, it would be very few.

"Reality is noticeably subjective."

No, you confuse reality with perception. Reality is constant, while perception can be flawed or just viewed differently. There are far more things akin to reality that we can not comprehend far more than what is deemed subjective. In fact, the word "reality" itself means "the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them." Also referred to as something objective, something that does not change depending on perception of it. Examples; 1+1=2, fire burns, we need food, water, and oxygen to survive, even nature has a set of rules to follow, all given by God.

The bible doesn't say that it is wrong to have worldly interests. But it encourages examining your heart and further ensuring your interests do not stagnate your faith, nor do they steal you from the path that leads to God.

It's either heaven or hell. There is no on the fence. Kinda like how really there is no 'maybe". It's either yes or no. Maybe tends to be no 90% of the time, used only to get someone to shut up. If you want to be with God, you can't just talk the talk. You gotta walk the walk. If you don't want to be with him, then he isn't gonna drag you by your feet into heaven. He will let you be separated from him, which will inherently be painful as you are separated from the one who gave you all good things. All those blessings will vanish just like that.

For everything created is something beyond its creation. For everything moved is something to set it in motion. A music box does not craft itself, nor does it wind itself. A domino does not set itself up, nor does it push itself down. A hammer does not craft itself, nor does it hammer a nail into a board itself. A tool is only as effective as its maker's will to use it.

Don't test the waters if you can't swim. It's as simple as that.

He has every right to hate me, every right to judge me. Yet the Lord hath brought mercy unto sinners as I.

It's rather sad to see some people call themselves atheists because they can't believe in a supernatural God. Yet they will give spiritual attributes to objects or dabble in witchcraft, which is a spiritual practice.
The problem with that is that there is no picking and choosing what does and doesn't exist. If there are "powerful spirits" and "spiritual forces," what are the odds of there not being an infinitely more powerful God? Not to mention, there is no spirituality without a spirit. What is spiritual warfare without the spirit? What are you fighting if not that that is spiritual? That's like having a friendship without the friend, a coloring book without the means to color it, or a burger without the burger, and a war without an enemy. Also, what is it you control spiritual forces with? A spirit. A conscious spirit that dwells in us, you can not control something spiritual with something physical, but you can control the physical with the spiritual. That is where possession comes from. Regardless if you think there is spirituality without a conscious spirit, then you bought an RC car without the RC.
