Di Wei’s Frivolous Adventures in Another Dimension, Part 1
Prologue of the ludicrous
Viemar the crooked staggered into his chamber of darkness with agog and devilish intend.
‘ Mwahaha! I have finally found the formula to create to greatest demon till date, and it has 15 wings! Mwahaha, soon the world shall bow down before me!’ And he began drawing distorted insignias onto his brick walls.
As the symbols start to glow brilliant orange, he began throwing random gewgaws into a massive claypot as sacrifices: Two 1988 Singapore dollar coins, a guru necklace, a pile of vomit collected from many antediluvian citizens of a lost empire (called Temasek), and a desktop produced by HP compaq running on a pentium 4 processor. All these were the ingredients needed to create the perfect no brain slave. BUT Viemar the crooked DELIBERATELY added (as he had watched the 1065th series of the Powerpuff Girls the night before) an extra chemical: Chemical D. Then, he began his chanting, “Oh god that rules over all the evils of Lionogia, grant me your wisdom, that I may call and unleash upon the world mayhem and eternal destruction! Call forth your most fiendish servant to aid me as i bide to conquer this world!”
” Your call has been answered!” A vociferious voice thundered through the chamber, and from a-mid the darkness, a portal emerged, and that most hideous monstrosity stepped out of the portal. Viemar watched as the being entered into his world, but he was not elated. In fact, he stood transfixed with trepidation. “By the gods, what have I done!” He said, and finally comprehending the magnitude of his summoning, he was deverstated by guilt and shame, and ran out of his tower, jumped out of the 23rd floor window, and that was the end of the evil Viemar.
But the story has not ended. For the true protagonist of the story is not Viemar. It is the being summoned rom another dimension, ready to reap the living breath out of all who stands in his path. Viemar has summoned a human. Yes! A H-U-M-A-N!!! Oh the horror! And what was more, it was no ordinary human. He summoned a Di Wei. A D-I W-E-I!!! And so the story shall continue the next time I am granted the opportunity to sit down and type for long hours in front of a computer. For now, Di Wei is born……
Break Fast
For many hours I was staring at the ceiling ruminating about the ‘breakfast’ I was going to have and the ‘breakfast’ in the afternoon. They seem to have a certain pertinence, and i spent a whole night (barely sleeping) camping for the moment of release. But it was more than just about my ‘breakfast’. Its about my baptism.
I always viewed baptism as a proclamation of being the child of god, but its significance was oblivious to me until my teacher told me that “baptism is not only a proclamation to the world, but also one to the spirits and demons that you are now under the custody of the only son of god, Jesus Christ”. THAT was stupefying. By baptising, the demons would KNOW you are a child of god. This would have two effects:
1)The demons have no hold over you anymore, for the presence of the lord is in your life.
2)The demons, who wants you condemned, would try egregious means to stymie your returning to the father.
Before baptism, the questions would be fired at point-blank range: Do you really think you are ready for it? Are you really up to the expectation of being a christian? Do you honestly want to comit yourself? All these incipient questions act as obstacles to keep you transfixed on the ground. You do have choices in life right? We can always procrastinate, or make other choices. Furthermore, when you become baptised, the devil would bombard you more than ever, and if your faith is not strong enough, then you may cower under its persistence and succumb to your tenebrous self. So, why don’t you THINK about it before you get baptised? God DID say that as long as you BELIEVE in Christ, you WILL have eternal life, did he not?
Many are fixated by the trepidation of needing to face the demons headon, and as such prefer to not get baptised. But that is EXACTLY what the devil wants you to do. To vacillate, so that they have time to change your mind, or to allure you. And when you fall into temptation and commit sin, they shall shame you for their regale, and cut of the bridge to your eternal life.
‘Deny yourself, take to cross, and follow me.’ Was this not what Jesus have said? So why hesitate? Our heavenly father has prepared your victory banquet in front of your enemies, all you need to do is to walk up to it and begin feasting. Sure we are weak, but in our weakness, he is perfect. The holy communion is waiting.
As i woke up from an arduous night of pancake flipping with panda eyes and contemplation, I await in agog my turn to walk up to the pastor and receive my sprinkle of holy water. Then, my ‘breakfast’ shall begin.
By the way, an antediluvian tale tells of a certain ‘alibaba’ who clamored a certain secret ‘open sesame’ password which has became the first thing hackers try when asked for a password. To enter the sacrosanct kingdom of heaven, all you need to do is to divulge your faith in our lord Jesus Christ, and what better way to do it than to be baptised?
