Re to Amy – Why Mohler is Wrong

April 20, 2011

I think they missed the point. After reading the book, I think they’re not getting what Bell is saying and what he’s trying to do. Now I must be wary about quoting Mr. Callihan, but from his comments I am led to believe that he agrees with me that Mohler in the article you posted [...]

A Proof Of The Atemporality of God

April 15, 2011

We define time as the movement of matter and the changing of the will and the spirit. An ever changing or moving moment. Movement and change must be started by something. Change and movement in anything must come from an interaction with external force or principle. Because there was nothing besides God before creation, God [...]

You Are The Bane

April 15, 2011

A dear friend of mine (Mr. Gunn Wilson) was so kind as to write a poem about me. I feel so very honored that I thought I’d post it here for those readers of my blog to enjoy. I hope you can empathize with him. You Are The Bain A poem about my relationship with [...]

I am a Fan of Icons and Holy Fools

April 15, 2011

I was reading The Orthodox Church by Timothy Ware this week. There are two things I’d like to note. First of all, I’ve always been a little bit skeptical of the use of icons in the Orthodox Church. Certainly not condemnatory, but skeptical nonetheless. But Ware gave two quotes about icons which explained the idea [...]

Little Candles

April 14, 2011

In the writhing chaos of this world, Little candles flicker in the eyes of men. Little lights amidst the complex swirl; A glimpse of beauty traced out by truth’s pen. These tinted windows, scratched and chipped by sin, Are passed without a second glance by most, But hidden, hardly see, yet held within: The image [...]

Re. to Amy – God’s Love and Election

April 11, 2011

God loves us even in our broken state. Most definitely. God loves the whole world in it’s broken state. I don’t think there’s any way around that fact. He sent his son to the world. Jesus’ merit paid for every last sin that has ever been committed or will be committed. Period. Not just for [...]

Re. To Amy – Worth the Baggage?

April 9, 2011

Is the picture worth the frame? Is the baggage worth the benefits and truth? Well, I think in the end I would have to say yes. But that’s just a subjective opinion upon which you ought to place no value. Yes, Bell is dangerous. And I would be wary of recommending him to someone not [...]

Friendship

April 8, 2011

From a blog I follow. Good thought. I’m beginning to understand that friendships aren’t “just” friendships. Friendships (and the work of cultivating them) are a form of spiritual discipline, just like prayer or scripture reading or mindful eating. When I don’t pray, my spirit suffers. When I don’t spend time reading the Word, my spirit/mind [...]

Rob Bell – Love Wins

April 7, 2011

Let me preface this by saying that I really enjoyed the book, it really spoke to my heart, and I highly recommend that you read it. Since there’s so much controversy over this book I thought I’d give a few thoughts here, because people keep wondering why I liked the book and Rob Bell. So, [...]
