 most Christians in these times, indeed most people:

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; i would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, i will spue thee out of my mouth. Revelation 3:15-16

so happy to have a nice physical book to read, i need to make a space in my routine to spend more time with it and making notes, i have theses to elaborate

 man, shipping to portugal is expensive... gonna get this video though after my pay comes through

i know that the developer of coracle also was moved to build that app related to the same issue, and the situation of the whole world in these times is worse than it has ever been in my life

i believe i have been told that this is actually the last of the shadow's increase and after next year things will start to be different, maybe not for the World at Large but for our people

 yeah, considering that the rev 3:15-16 came to mind i'm gonna go hot on this... i want to see this thing and i'm happy to give something to the people who made it and who it is about

i feel like getting off the fence is something i need to do, i have become quite despondent and probably what will help me push over to the place i want to be is giving more of my time to things that are good and right

 What does hot symbolize? If anything, but it sounded like it has its own meaning to you

 cold - wary, cautious, careful, reluctant, disinterested, stubborn

hot - exhuberant, excitable, passionate, engaging, bold, intrepid, aggressive

lukewarm - indifferent, ambivalent, undecided, flaccid, easily lured

 I definitely prefer physical books, but if you carry a phone it is handy to have a bible handy at all times.

The small Bibles are nice to have, but as I have gotten older, my eyes have gotten worse.  Carrying a small Bible that has writing so small I can't read it doesn't do me any good.

 yeah, my vision has declined but i still can read about 8 point font ok so that makes a much smaller volume possible... the one i just got is "comfortable" size,  about 10 point, so when i say small i mean like 4.5" tall or so, normal aspect, it would fit in the lap pockets of my combat pants
