[Theofilus]

If you could go back in time, what era would you go to and why?

I would go back to the first century to see how the church did things and what they believed during the apostolic age.

 

[Theofilus]

What is your favorite inspirational quote - not from Scripture?

The one in my signature - Grace is free but it is not cheap. There is so much truth in that and it's as relevent today as when Dietrich Bonhoeffer said it 60 years ago. People today want cheap grace - just say one prayer and your saved and it doesn't have to affect the rest of your life. Grace isn't like that.

Do you decorate your home for Christmas the day right after Thanksgiving?

No. For two reasons. First of all, we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Iceland. Secondly, I don't celebrate Christmas and so don't decorate my home. I don't celebrate either Christmas or Easter because of the Pagan traditions associated with them. I celebrate the Biblical holidays - Passover, the Days of Unleavened Bread, Feast of Firstfruits, Feast of Weeks (Pentecost), Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, Feast of Tabernacles, Chaunukah.

 

[Theofilus]

What is your favorite Holiday tradition and why?

As far as Christmas is concerned, my favorite part is when it's over (around mid January). It starts so early now that by the time Christmas actually comes, I'm really tired of it.

My favorite holiday is Passover because of all the rich symbolism it contains about Jesus.

If you could have a free holiday,where would you want to go and why?

 

[Theofilus]

I would want to go on a tour of the Biblical lands - Not just Israel but all the places mentioned in the Bible. (Mesopotamia (aka Iraq) might be an exception right now though. I think I'd skipt that part.) I've wanted to see those places for a long time to see where the events in the Bible took place.

 

[worldwatcher]

That would be so great...

Preheat oven to 180C (356F)

While the meat is cooking:
Slice potatoes

Slice mushrooms (fresh)
Saute vegitables in butter

(All amounts are up to you depending on how many it's for. I usually just cook for myself and I use 2 medium sized potatoes (or 1 baking potato), a few mushrooms (depends on size), 2 carrots and 1 small onion.)

What is your favorite type of animal?? Why??

 

[Theofilus]

My favorite animal is Garfield. Other than him and Odie, I don't really have any favorite animals. The only pet I ever had was a turtle. Well, except for the snake but, my mom saw to it that I didn't have it very long. I prefere plants to animals. They're much easier to take care of.

If you knew today was your last day on earth, what would you do?

 

[Theofilus]

If this was my last day on earth, I would probably die.

But seriously, I think I would want to spend my last day in prayer and Bible study and of course saying goodbye to my friends and family.

 

[woman.at.the.well]

If you had one whole day to do whatever YOU wanted to do . . .what would it be?

 

[worldwatcher]

What is the greatest talent has God blessed you with?

 

[~Wisdom Seeker~]

What book(s) are you currently reading? (besides the Bible)

 

[worldwatcher]

What charitable organization do you think is most worthy?

 

[Theofilus]

If you had one whole day to do whatever YOU wanted to do . . .what would it be?

I would want to go visit my girlfriend. Problem is that it takes half the day to get there. She lives on the other side of the Atlantic.

If I were to choose something that could more realistically be fit into 24 hours, I would travel someplace that I haven't seen before. There are many beautiful places here in Iceland that I haven't seen and many places within a reasonable distance (Greenland, Faero Islands, Scotland, Ireland and more) that I would like to see.
