Free Will? Yesterday’s question drew some excellent answers in the comments. All of them expressed fundamentally the idea of replacing bad with good. One of the scriptures I used (2 Cor 9:7-8) specifically speaks of ma…
Decisions… decisions… Are you a decisive person? Do you make up your mind quickly and it’s a done deal, or do you worry over choices to the point where you have trouble deciding and become wishy-washy? As for me, I tend…
Post Holiday Blahs The Thanksgiving feast is behind us, but the peanutbutter fudge and persimmon pudding have taken their toll leaving me 5 lbs heavier. I haven't broken above the top of goal range, but getting painfully…
Transmit We looked at the path leading ultimately to the eternally redeemed life. This path starts with realizing the need to get on the path and that Jesus is the one to lead us. We then give him permission to direc…
Commit When you admit God is God and you do the only logical thing – submit to His authority – it only stands to reason you will live what you believe. Ac 5:1-3 But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, so…
Submit When you submit you willingly place yourself under the authority of another. It doesn’t take a scholar to understand that once you admit God is God and you aren’t, you should submit to the authority of God in …
Admit (Part 3 of 3) I Admit… (Cont’d) I have no hope without the free gift of salvation, a gift I can never earn. I can never make up for my sin. I cannot atone. Only Jesus’ blood can do that. He did what I cannot …
Admit (Part 2 of 3) I Admit… I am human, imperfect and carnal as anyone reading this document. Without the redeeming blood of Jesus I am as hopeless as all you wretched, helpless creatures reading. With the redeemi…
Admit The first step to rebirth into spiritual life is, as a carnal being, to admit you are you and God is God. You cannot obtain eternal life and the hopes it comes with, let alone the peace in your soul available i…
This is the last question for verse 20. For the next few entries I’m going to take a break from the study. The subject will perhaps be review, but I’m going to dive deeper into something I feel is well worth it. My new t…
Yesterday I had an embarrassing moment. I was peaking at Carolyn’s site while the class was doing a lab. Something she posted made me burst out laughing. When I told her, she responded and I thought it was such good info…
Quick Post I am teaching this week, which means I can’t be spending as much time here. In other news, the final play performance was last night. It was a good show, but I’m glad it is over. The next major family event c…
Saturday was fabulous. You read about the first few hours of the day in my last post. After a few hours of sleep K, B, MIL and myself went to the Overlook Restaurant in Leavenworth IN for a mid-afternoon meal. I was a go…
Interviewing Angels (Heb 13:2)

As I write this I sit in the office of the hotel at my weekend moonlighting job. Its okay, I’ve got plenty of time. In fact, its all the extra time I’ve got that made this evening so special. It started around 1 am, just…
Happy Birthday K

I want to reach out with a special Happy Birthday message to my wonderful wife. May your day be a brilliant flash of joy, followed by 364 more such days until your next birthday. Luv ya, Darlin’. 19Know this, my belo…
A personal note All this talk about anger and I’m not [generally] an angry person. To be honest, this has been a difficult section for me. I tend to be stoic. Anger is one of the easier emotions for me to identify and f…
Okay, folks. The Professor is back and ready to get to work. Yesterday I took the day off to blow some leaves around my yard. Of course by the time I was done there were as many as before I started, but that’s just how t…
Tour

Before the study restarts I wanted to take the day and share some pictures. Last week's big project was building some protective covers for our strawberry plants. Last year's attempt was something you wouldn't want to s…
Just a short note. I had to break the silence just to let anyone interested know, the person I spoke of earlier, the one with skin cancer, got the results back from the biopsy of the portion removed. It is a serious melo…
