Someone recently quoted from Philippians 1.6 on another thread... :) (I think it was @"ByGrace" ...)

@Dave L PS: Here's a quote I saw: allnurses dot com Whether among nurses & patients or in witness, it's extremely hard to deny that they do indeed work as conversation-starters, isn't it?

I saw a quote about how among healthcare workers a tattoo can work as an ice-breaker with patients; it certainly works in witness situations also.

Well, further north in the Province is indeed Polar Bear Provincial Park....

We indeed need to keep looking up; 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 12.2). :)

Great passage there in Romans. Such an important Epistle.

John 1.1-18 is tremendous, often read at carol services at Christmas as the final reading.

Very cold and snowy still, although it's actually stopped snowing for the moment.

So important to have a sensitive conscience towards God: "the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, (shall) purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?"

The question is not winning debates but, What do the Scriptures say?

Good to remember this is not talking about the church.

Well, exactly; excellent point.

I do struggle with the idea that the Lord Jesus supposedly did some things as the Son of God and other things as the Son of Man; a wonder of the Incarnation (John 1.14; 1 Timothy 3.16) is the perfect union of the two natures.

What a tremendous verse! The background of Colossians is supposed to be syncretism, which is interesting... Thus 2.9 has a very special declaration!
