    PETER AND PAUL AND THE KINGDOM

    It’s always been about faith; the Abrahamic faith. (Or the faith of Abraham, if you prefer.)

    PETER AND PAUL AND THE KINGDOM

    JOHN 20:31 OUR SALVATION IS NOT FOUND IN MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE OR JOHN

    Another member of the forum asked me a question this morning about C.S. Lewis. That reminded me of something he wrote that is relevant to the topic of this thread: ”… there is no real evidence for a pre-Pauline doctrine different from St Paul’s.”...

    JOHN 20:31 OUR SALVATION IS NOT FOUND IN MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE OR JOHN

    JOHN 20:31 OUR SALVATION IS NOT FOUND IN MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE OR JOHN

    I had a professor in college who used to say to us, “The devil has only one trick: separate Jesus from his words.” Hyperbolic, perhaps. But there’s a whole lot of truth in that. Listen to Jesus, newbies. Listen to Jesus.

    * Conversion chart. 1 Thalassotitan atrox = 4 feet, 10 inches. I think I might have seen this in an old Star Trek episode. ”Spock, how far is it to the next Thalassotitan watering hole? Approximately 3 atrox, Captain.” Or maybe it was in an episode of Battlestar Galactica. I don’t know. My...

    * Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali) at his home in Louisville, KY in 1963. I don’t know if it’s true or not but I heard tell Forrest Gump is a distant relative of the champ. Maybe. I can see a possible family resemblance. *
