Konami Code, Week 2 Forefront Church // Weekly Gel Group Study This study CAN be used individually, but we believe it’s best served by studying TOGETHER as a group. The early church gathered together and studied the teaching of Jesus and at Forefront we strive to follow that example. If you’re looking for a gel group, please email [email protected] and we will get back to you on the best group to find community and Bible study. Series: The Konami Code This Week’s Theme: Godʼs Word Combats Sin The Intro: Much like the infamous Konami Code (old code for Nintendo game "Contra"), there are millions of things that creep into our heads that we cannot get rid of. From the lyrics to Tiny Dancer to those commercials with that stupid Gecko- we cannot seem to shake them out of our heads. What if we learned to put more than just movie quotes and song lyrics inside our little brains? What if we remembered things that matter? Well, in this series, "The Konami Code" we'll take a look at how The Bible (God's Word) brings revolution, combats sin, provides guidance, and brings life change. Group Ice Breaker: What is the strangest disagreement youʼve ever had? What caused it and how did you get through it? Notes: Throughout the Bible you see where Godʼs people use scripture to defend themselves, prove a point and to Combat evil (sin). As we continue our series “The Konami Code”, letʼs look into how reading, understanding and memorizing Godʼs word can both improve our lives and is the very weapon we need to combat sin. Passages For Study: Matthew 4:1-11, Psalm 119:11, Ephesians 6:10-20 (scriptures located at the end of the study) Letʼs Talk It Out Together: 1. How did Jesus respond to Satanʼs temptation? How might a Christ like response help you in dealing with temptation and sin? 2. In what ways could knowing /memorizing scripture help you the way you live out your life? 3. What does Psalm 119:11 mean to you? How should Christians model this verse? 4. In Ephesians 6:12 Paul tell s us that our struggle isnʼt in the flesh but is against spiritual forces. How do you see this played out in your life? Why is it hard for people to accept that there is indeed spiritual warfare going on all around them? 5. Which piece of the “armor of God” do you struggle with putting on each day? Why? How can we ensure we put on our armor before we start our day and how would that change the way you approach your day? 6. What does it mean to “pray in the Spirit on all occasions “? How effective are you at prayer and how can the we help you to get better? 7. How will you allow Godʼs word to help you through your struggles this week? How can you encourage others to do the same? ******************************************************************************** If you have questions about how to strengthen your faith or questions about the Bible, contact your Gel Group Leader or email us [email protected] Ephesians 6:10-20 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devilʼs schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lordʼs people. 19 Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should. Matthew 4:1-11 1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted[a] by the devil. 2 After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.” 4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ʻMan shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.ʼ[b]” 5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 6 “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: “ʻHe will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.ʼ[c]” 7 Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ʻDo not put the Lord your God to the test.ʼ[d]” 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9 “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.” 10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ʻWorship the Lord your God, and serve him only.ʼ[e]” 11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him. Psalm 119:11 11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you..

  • By Heavensanon Version 1.0 Welcome to Videoland, Jumper. It Is
    Captain N (Jumpchain-compatible CYOA) By HeavensAnon Version 1.0 Welcome to Videoland, Jumper. It is a world, or rather a connection of video game worlds that are VERY loosely based off of classic Nintendo games on the NES. It’s the 80s and everything is suitably dorky to match. Right now, the evil Mother Brain and her dastardly henchmen are storming the Palace of Power, the center and heart of Videoland. Her goal? To take it over, of course. But, the legendary Power Glove tells of a savior from the real world who will come to save videoland. His name is Kevin Keene, the Gamemaster. Together, he and his new friends will thwart Mother Brain’s plans in daily adventures that most certainly isn’t a botched marketing exercise from Nintendo. Nope. But that’s where you come in, right? While these worlds aren’t quite as dangerous as their game counterparts, it can still be a dicey proposition to survive if you’re not careful. Will you join the N- Team as a new member? Will you instead join the dastardly Mother Brain, or seek to take over Videoland all on your own? Or maybe you’ll just go somewhere else because this is all incredibly silly. Make it good, Jumper. +1000 Power Points for your trouble. Backgrounds: Age is largely irrelevant for Videoland Natives and Villains, and can be chosen for free. Drop-In and The Gamemaster roll 10+1d8 for age. Gender remains the same. Can spend 100 points to choose age and gender. Drop-In [Free] – It’s you! You’re dropped out of the Ultimate Warp Zone at your new location, with nobody knowing about your coming or knowing what to expect.

  • WRECK-IT RALPH by Lordcirce
    WRECK-IT RALPH By LordCirce Ah, Litwack’s Arcade. It’s been in operation for over thirty years, serving generations of youngsters for the low, low price of their entire allowance in pocket change. Just about every arcade game you can think of has passed through these doors, from old classics to modern titles. And those games hold a secret. They… are alive! Nobody knows how it happens, and nobody but the game characters is aware of their sentient status (though Litwack himself may or may not suspect something). The game characters can travel between their games via the central surge protector they are plugged into, labeled as Game Central Station. This can be dangerous, as game characters won’t regenerate outside of their games, but it has allowed an entire culture to spring up between the various titles, and now, you will have to opportunity to join them. You will enter the world as a game character, just one week before one of the oldest titles in the arcade, Fix-It Felix Jr., celebrates its thirtieth year anniversary of service. So, whether you are gonna wreck-it, or fix-it, or race-it, it is time to get started. Whatever “it” is, we’re going to do something to it, within the context of a video game. So, let’s get to it. You’ve got 1000 CP to spend. ​ ​ ORIGINS There are four origins for you to choose from. Glitch (Drop-In): You’re not supposed to exist. You just showed up one day, and now you’re ​ here.

  • UNCOVERING the SECRET WORLD of MALWARE-LIKE CHEATS in VIDEO GAMES Santiago Pontiroli Kaspersky, Argentina
    WWW.VIRUSBULLETIN.COM/CONFERENCE 2019 LONDON 2 – 4 October 2019 THE CAKE IS A LIE! UNCOVERING THE SECRET WORLD OF MALWARE-LIKE CHEATS IN VIDEO GAMES Santiago Pontiroli Kaspersky, Argentina [email protected] ABSTRACT With more than 2.5 billion gamers from all over the world, it’s no wonder that at least a fraction of them would bring into action additional tools to gain an unfair advantage over their opponents in the virtual world. This is one of the many reasons behind the existence and rapid growth of a multi-million-dollar industry that thrives on selling cheats, hacks and modifi cations to desperate gamers seeking to gain the upper hand in their next match. Let’s dissect these tools and understand how modern games and anti-cheating technologies can easily be bypassed, all while we get a glimpse of the dubious market and supporting crews that develop, sell, and maintain the commodities in this illegal economy. It’s not unusual for cheats to be more expensive than the actual games they are trying to profi t from, or for players to buy a single title over and over until they can avoid being banned by the protective measures implemented in the fi rst place. Fortnite? Overwatch? League of Legends? If you’ve heard of these games but you don’t know what an aimbot, a wallhack, or an ESP means, then you might fi nally understand why all those competitive matches you played have made you feel like a fi sh out of water. Join me in this presentation and learn the inside-out of an industry that has remained in the shadows for a very long time.

  • Bill Rizer Essay.Pdf
    Bill “Mad Dog” Rizer Shoots Up A Storm! The purpose of this essay is to educate people on Contra and convince them why Bill Rizer is a solid contender for being a DLC character in Smash Ultimate. I will be going over the series’ history, its impact on the gaming industry, what Bill Rizer can bring to Smash, and the series' place in speculation. History of Contra’s Releases Back in 1987, Konami released an arcade game called Contra. Contra is a run-and-gun game where you control Bill Rizer (Player 2 takes control of Lance Bean) as you take down an evil organization that is bent on destroying humanity while discovering the true identity of the aliens controlling them. The game was a big hit and it got ported to numerous computers and game consoles, including the NES and Famicom. It sold very well, leading to Super Contra (Also known as Super C) in the arcades and on NES as well. At this point, Contra became a franchise. It got Operation C on the Gameboy, Contra 3: The Alien Wars on the SNES, and it continued to get games on the 5th generation of consoles, as well as the 6th gen, 7th gen, and modern consoles. After Hard Corps: Uprising in 2011, the series took a break until 2019 when Konami released Rogue Corps, as well as the Contra Anniversary Collection which contains a bunch of the retro titles in the series. An interesting facet of Contra’s history is the localization of the games into foreign countries.
