Been away
Sorry for not getting back to this sooner. although looking at the comments, not to worry, no one is reading it. Just ribbing ya - I know that you are, you have told me you are. I had/have the same problem, when reading a blog, -- wanted to put in a comment, but just not sure what to say -- so don't.
Little while back I stopped by Riverview Hospital to have my heart rate checked because it seemed high during visit to gym - you know, just wanted to be sure. They 'invited' me to stay for a few days. It is amazing how an experience like that can cause you to really pause and reflect about a lot of things and in a much different perspective. I have had several experiences in the last months - separated from EDS and visiting Riverview being the two most significant.
Started reading a book again, actually it is the updated version. It is John MacArthur's Gospel According to Jesus. If you have read it, let me know, because I would really like to discuss the ideas in this book. I'll warn you up front, that I find the book very convicting and feel it is what I should be doing. Got a whole lot of work in the 'should be doing' department.
I believe in the inerrancy of the Bible, which goes a long way to saying that I accept what it says. Don't understand what I know it says, but then there is only one God that understand everything and I am not him. Even the 7 day thing in the beginning. I can take a hint by reading Job and no I wasn't there. Won't go into the scientific reasoning that supports what the Bible says (too little time, not enough space). Just another one of those not-so-politically correct positions that I must admit to. [more on this one later]
So why bring up the Bible thing when talking about John's book? Simple. That is where John gets all of his information - the Bible. Which means this is where I need to spend more time.
be back soon.
