What the Day of the Lord means to us depends on our particular values, our contexts, what we really think of as righteousness.Īmid this apocalypse, relationships that were hidden are coming into the light and the order of things is changing. Closer to our time, we might think of the Emancipation Proclamation, the release of Nelson Mandela in South Africa and, for many, the day the Supreme Court effectively legalized same-sex marriage. In the book of Exodus, Israelites being led out of slavery in Egypt was a Day of the Lord. It is for real and it is promised, but it is also a righteously mobile metaphor. “The Day of the Lord,” described by the prophets Amos and Joel and the apostle Peter, is both one big day on which God makes everything right (the last are first and the first are last, oppression ceases, people get what they need to live, the reign of God comes on earth as it already is in heaven) and most any day when something like this happens for any group of people anywhere in the world. There are two biblical concepts we tried to cover earlier in the course that come to our aid in thinking this question through.

We are all remote now, but the questions are coming at me like the spray of a broken fire hydrant. “What does all that have to do with right now?” was a question I would raise and try to answer all by my lonesome.Ĭovid-19 has flipped the script profoundly. I would try to provoke them into disagreeing with Jesus or Isaiah aloud, but it was all too often a quiet affair. There were questions peppered throughout but never enough for my liking. P.S.Back in the days when we met in person, I often worried that my Bible class was too much of a monologue in which I professed ideas aloud and a few undergraduate students helped me along with affirming nods. Some received attention, some got to Steam's front page and some got played by some big youtubers so I was like why not make a bigger better game and try selling it? So yeah that'll be the first game I'm selling □! My brother and I have been creating a couple of games this year just cause it's fun so they're all free on Steam. I'm a 19 years old developer called Faris, one of the two Euphoric Brothers. Human Apocalypse was selected as part of the PAX 10 for PAX West 2021 in Seattle (which was super fun) and was also featured in PAX Aus & the last Steam Next Fest! Planned to released in January-March 2022, so not too far □ ![]() ![]() The game will be releasing on Windows, Mac, Linux. ![]() The dark, bizarre world of this game has a deep thought-provoking story, full of interesting characters to meet, a city to freely roam and explore, tough decisions to make, an original soundtrack, beautiful visuals, lots of secrets to uncover.

Except for one thing, the cured people’s skin color is still green. All the infected people have been treated and are now normal, functioning, harmless humans again. However, in this game, a cure has been found. It turns people into brain eating zombies, the whole world goes into chaos, etc. An unknown deadly virus has suddenly spread.
