I'm not forcing this but I have the most true important information/fact to tell you all that you all need to believe in. As sinners we must get punished for all of our sins by spending eternity in hell but now the good news is that God still LOVES US so much he sent his one and only BEGOTTEN son Jesus Christ to take the punishment for all of our sins by dying on the cross to save us from going to hell and so we can spend eternity with Christ and God in his Kingdom. On the third day after Jesus Christ died God raised him back from the dead. Jesus Christ ascended to heaven and he will come back for his chosen ones and take them to heaven. No one knows when Christ will come back but the Father, God. If you already believe Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord please spread the Gospel, the good news that Jesus Christ saved us because there are still people perishing in hell for not believing in Christ as their Savior and Lord

Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

For those with English as a first language you are extremely lucky.

It was clever that they used specific words multiple times like "palatable".

Also, it was smart to include a couple basic words that weren't gibberish since most people that don't understand a language are somewhat familiar with certain words or phrases and so they would likely stand out here and there. Brilliantly done!
