I like the comic above because it reminds me of Jesus talking to the rich young ruler. Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One,that is, God. You know the […]
Oratorical Festivals and important saints to know
An edited version of this post was submitted to another website This is a more direct version. I was privileged to be present at an Oratorical Festival yesterday. Listening to the junior and senior grade divisions I was impressed with the amount of work that they had put into their verbal deliveries. But, more than […]
A small hitch for Young Earth Creationists
For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. – Romans 1:20, ESV. One of the major principles of Protestant Biblical Interpretation by Bernard Ramm is found in the following […]
Dilemma for Christians
Yesterday I stated my disagreement with Young Earth Creationism (YEC). Today, I saw the comic above and it made me laugh. But, the comic also makes a good point. Many Christians are afraid to answer the question of whether they believe in Young Earth Creationism or some form of Old Earth Creationism or of Theistic […]
When even known Christians have problems with YEC
YEC stands for Young Earth Creationism. It is the belief that the Earth (and the Universe) were created in six (6) twenty-four hour days. It also believes that the Creation is between 5,700 to 10,000 years old. Proponents do not simply argue that this is the way that it happened, but almost always go much […]
For theologically inclined gamers and cosplayers
The above comic comes from http://www.pvponline.com. If you need to have it explained to you, you are no gamer. But, in the last panel, there is an interesting bit of theology that slips in. Among some few (not many) American Evangelicals, there is a practice of rebaptism whenever a person recommits to the Lord. It […]
The Church and weapons
A Roman Catholic Priest, an Eastern Orthodox Priest, a Protestant Pastor, and two Jewish Rabbis were blessing weapons. Does that sound like the beginning of a joke? But, see the images above for an example of each of them. But, wait, OK, I will tell you one joke. I do not know from where […]
Just meet me when …
I am a science fiction and fantasy fan, along with being an animé fan. In fact currently I am reading/listening (audiobook) a steampunk book set in Victorian England. Well, I should say anchored in Victorian England, but there is some travel involved, don’t you know. As a matter of fact, the heroine’s steam powered […]
Real Orthodox Men
Real Orthodox men do not wear cologne. They smell of incense. Real Orthodox men do not need to do “crunches” for their abs. Lenten prostrations are all they need. Real Orthodox men are not worried about being fat. One hundred fifty days a year of fasting takes care of that. Real Orthodox men know […]
A proud moderate
“We are hungry for leaders who can say we need both anti-discrimination laws as well as laws to protect people’s religious freedom — and who make the argument that those don’t have to be mutually exclusive values. In fact, they go together, …” –Matthew Dowd, ABC News Analyst As a country, we are more and […]
