    not a joke

    Though I am free and belong to no man, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not...

    Look and Read

    Hey Look and Read was soo cool. Do you remember the 'magic pencil' ...up and down and round and flick... Goodness knows what letters you would create if you actually followed those instructions! Anyone of the right era to have seen Earth Warp (that scared me soo much when I was in primary...

    Which Day of the Week is the Sabbath?

    Back to the OP, does it actually matter in practice if we keep a day holy to the Lord?

    Woman in Genesis

    I hardly think Eve was an afterthought - surely God is beyond the timeframe that restricts us humans to thoughts and afterthoughts. Although Eve came after Adam, she would always be necessary for the human race to begin. I believe that God always intended to create Eve, but man came first...

    A New Thought Concerning Biblical Infallibility

    Yes, I kind of assumed that from your OP, no offence intended. Would an atheist really use lack of contradiction to prove the point? Ok, there is the possibility for a really skilled author, but there is such a wide variety of works (poems, history, prose etc) and I am sure the atheist could...

    A New Thought Concerning Biblical Infallibility

    Interesting... But why chose the to make the plot of the story like he did? There aren't many really popular stories you come across where the protagonist dies and then calls upon his followers to do the same for their faith. Ok, it would seem like a good twist in the tale to add the...

    Favourite song?

    We just sang a Taize style song at Church this morning - Bless the Lord my Soul. Bless the Lord my Soul And bless God's Holy Name Bless the Lord my Soul Who leads me into Life It is soo simple, but extremely reflective and meditative. We don't normally sing stuff like that, but it was very...

    A Brief History of the Christian Church...

    The problem with timelines like this is that however they are drawn, they always seem to assert that one denomination is lesser than another because it 'broke off' or branched off from the true way. I think it would be true to say that subscribers to a particular denomination would claim theirs...

    Bible Promioses for All!

    Behold I stand at the door and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Revelation 3:20 The promise of Jesus to all who accept Him. What a great promise!

    "An Eye for an Eye"

    I believe it means justice - an eye for an eye seems really quite fair. Importantly, I also believe in mercy and grace, which aren't very apparent in Exodus 21, but are very clear to me in Matthew 5.
