    What's the weather like where you are?

    We get a short summer, too. Some winters seem to last 7 - 8 months.

    Can a Christian have a demon?

    While I take your point about Christians being sometimes hindered in certain ways - and I think your reference to demons there is in a looser, indefinite sense of the word - I think its also clear that in spiritual things two spheres absolutely exclude one another: "Ye cannot drink the cup of...

    Turned a bit cooler tonight. But we are getting into June now; how this year is flying past already...

    Amos 3.3, a thoughtful verse: "Can two walk together, except they be agreed?"

    Good passage there for reference; I am just amazed how ppl seem to try to justify easy divorce and remarriage, when that passage you refer to says something a lot different.

    Poll: Best age for first tattoo?

    Thanks for your vote! I see you prefer 26-40 as a sensible or more ideal age to do it for the first time. (Avoiding later regrets is indeed an issue which I'm sure a lot of 18 year old don't consider carefully enough.) 18 for first ink does seem to go with the idea of doing it as a coming of...

    Are Pastors Teaching a Watered-Down Gospel?

    Hebrews is a wonderful Epistle which shows so clearly in so many ways how the New Testament order centred on the Person and Work of Christ is better - a keyword - than the Old. Sometimes clergy with vested interests can easily drag people back into the Old system in their understanding of...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    I don't think we are at all in a position to explain away or to try to portray as supposedly superseded the revelation we have in Scripture.

    Outgoing British Prime Minister Theresa May presides over European elections disaster

    Yes, I believe the office of Prime Minister deserves respect. In Mrs May situation, from the start she was between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand, big business - traditionally behind the Conservatives, wanted the UK to remain in the EU whatever anyone (inc. the British people...

    Outgoing British Prime Minister Theresa May presides over European elections disaster

    On the one hand it could be said that by resigning Mr Cameron ran away from his responsibilities; on the other, with such a hugely different turn of events for which he was directly responsible, almost everything else he might have tried to do as Prime Minister if he had stayed would probably...

    Outgoing British Prime Minister Theresa May presides over European elections disaster

    PS: Most of the declared candidates hoping to succeed Mrs May as leader are people I have never even heard of. Maybe with possible impending, further electoral doom for them it won't matter much in the end who succeeds to the leadership, anyway.

    Outgoing British Prime Minister Theresa May presides over European elections disaster

    I see Labour has now expelled Alastair Campbell. He is only among just about the most effective, heavyweight defenders of Labour's cause that there have been in a generation — like him or not; personally, I don't. He managed public affairs as spokesman at a time when Messrs. Blair, Colin...

    Scripture is not the last word.

    Well, exactly. It's a body of doctrine all in the Word of God, and it's so rich and inexhaustible.

    The Righteousness of God

    In church history there was a tendency for some to confuse imputed righteousness by faith with infused righteousness (or, stated, differently, confusing justification with sanctification). At the Reformation the truth of justification by faith (Romans, Galatians, etc.) was very strongly asserted.

    Poll: Best age for first tattoo?

    Yes, I can understand the trend. Although years ago - especially among sailors, bikers, etc. - it used to be almost always a man thing to do; but this has changed hugely. It said somewhere that 55%-70% or more of parlor clients in North America are female; it's now also a very womanly thing to...

    Such words are from some corporate lawyer just covering themselves...it's not really intended to community clarity to the intended user.
