    Pastor Qualifications

    I'm developing a guideline for "Qualifications of a Pastor," utilizing 1 Tim 3 and Titus 1. Any thoughts from the peanut gallery? As I go through the study of some of the words, any recommendations on commentaries (to use or to avoid)? I've got several resources; I'm just looking for...

    The book of Revelation

    Comparison of the tone of Isaiah's declaration of what God will do, vice the tone of Revelation.

    New Doctor Who

    I wonder...you think the Doctor will be confronted by an army of those that died around him, all motivated by "you killed me" or "you got me killed"? If episode three continues this trend....

    The book of Revelation

    No; meant to say apocalyptic. Thanks for pointing that out.

    The book of Revelation

    Hmm...some serious differences in tone regarding the apocryphal "threats"....

    Interesting church dynamic

    And yet, you see no harm in what you just said? This is NOT an attack on you, John. This is an attempt to see if we can understand the way you think, and why you think that way...because you need to look through this thread again. If you think I'm attacking you, then you're being attacked by...

    The book of Revelation

    Since you couldn't tell, I'll admit: I forgot to use the <joking around> tag.

    Capital Punishment -- Proof it should be eliminated

    Two problems with what you just answered: If you're not telling people what their sin is, then how do they know they're sinners? It's not love to let them continue in their sin. Jesus didn't say "I love you no matter what"; He said, "go, and sin no more." Second, you and I are both fellow...

    Interesting church dynamic

    So you do endorse the church? You tell folks, "hey, come to the church I'm a member of. We'd love to see you there, and growing in the Lord"?

    Capital Punishment -- Proof it should be eliminated

    Zaac - do you ascribe to "love the sinner, hate the sin"?

    The book of Revelation

    Because he's crusty, sometimes obnoxious, not afraid to challenge the views of others ... oh, wait. That's Rev Mitchell. You meant Revelations. My bad. Sorry; couldn't help myself.

    Capital Punishment -- Proof it should be eliminated

    Not as many as had their lives taken and were guilty?

    Deep book reads

    Good question; and I would answer by saying that the reading is a journey. Such changes don't occur only on the last page.

    Filipino Force Defies U.N., Gets To Keep Their Heads

    Had Fijians guarding the camp that I was at in Iraq. Didn't think too much of them; but they were friendly, and invited us to have Christmas dinner with them. Still not sure where they caught the fish.... Had Filipinos for the guards at the camp that I was at in Afghanistan. They may have...

    Deep book reads

    Perhaps the measure of a "deep" book is how much you, the reader, are changed at the closing of the last page?

    What Biblical Character Do You Identify Yourself With?

    Peter. I have a tendency to profess my all for Him, then--not deny Him, but not live up to the profession.

    New Doctor Who

    I was a little weirded out by "Into the Dalek." Obviously a play to get the Doctor to realize just how full of hatred he is; and the answer to the question about "am I a good man?" But it seemed like there wasn't a whole lot of Doctor in this one -- like the pilot episode. The scenes where...

    Album Sales Hit a New Low

    Twiglite Saga and Mormon Theology

    Sorry; I just couldn't help the giggle. And I think "Twiglite" is an appropriate nonsensical name.
