The Bible and Its Importance pt. Trois

Okay so hopefully this won’t go on much longer. I’m not sure I can count past five in French any more.
So Steve pointed out that I made a big time overstatement in part the second. I said “While God used a variety of means to communicate to people over the ages it always [...]

The Bible and Its Importance pt. Deux

Did some more thinking and something just struck me (and no it didn’t hurt). In a way I’m looking for something that isn’t going to be there. Nowhere in the Bible am I going to find “The End!”. Not gonna happen. So I look back at that passage from Romans 15. [...]

The Bible and Its Importance

Having an interesting discussion at Letters From Kamp Krusty regarding Bibliolatry or turning the Bible into an idol.
I certainly believe it’s possible, but I also believe that it’s possible to go the other way. I personally believe that the Bible is the closed revelation of God. As a good Presbyterian I posted the [...]

Weekend of Suck

Okay so I kicked off my weekend with a thirteen hour workday on Friday. Not the best way to start the whole shooting match. Needless to say Friday night involved me barely thinking and quite possibly drooling more than a little, bathed in the light of the idiot box.
Saturday morning was spent doing [...]

Beach Pictures

Here are some pics of my beach trip…

I’m baaaack…

I’d like to thank Pink for his keeping an eye on my blog while I was away. Both of his posts are well worth the reading and his site is one that you should keep in your favorites.
I had a great time at the beach. I didn’t miss access to the net nearly [...]

I Need Grace

and not just because I don’t know how to assign categories to a post. This is pink again, still trying to thumb my way through moveable type. (Really do not like MT, now)
Anyway, it may be uncool to do so, but I wanted to post here that I spoke at the church I attend this [...]

While the Cat’s Away

…you know the rest.
pinakidion again filling in for Scott in his absence. Actually, he is where I want to be right now, in NC at the beach.
A Business Experiment
Anyway, I hope to begin an experiment soon for one of my websites. I wanted to mention it here to see what you guys might think. Read [...]

Off the Grid

As of about 3:00 I will be cutting the cord for about five days. There will be no internet, yeah verily not even a computer. That will mean no podcasts or posts from yours truly. I shall be spending some good quality time with the family and letting emails rack up. [...]

Five Rules">Five Rules

What would Orwell say of theological writing?
According to Mark Hornes, this is a good start:
A few guesses:
Never use a Latin term when there is a perfectly good vernacular word or phrase available.
Never say ordo salutis when you can say “order of salvation.”
Whenever possible discard specialized vocabulary when everyday words will suffice.
I think Trinity would survive [...]
