Let's be reasonable with one another, shall we?

These are high and lofty ideals based on extensive study...

Give me a greeting when you visit. I appreciate nice-ness.
You can address another blogger ... and even disagree with them, that is fine. All I ask is that you leave censure and hand-slapping to me.
Speak up ...
about the posts.
Be nice!

Q: Why do I like these quotes? A: Because they make me feel good. :~)

Earl - As I write, teach Sunday School, I think of people like you in my audience. It gives me a sanity check of what I am saying. Would what I say pass the "crap" or sanity check of you or others that I know?

KC -
You're a great sister ;-)

Colin Maxwell -
I enjoyed your post and desire to think these things out.

Loren - Your posting is full of many thought provoking points and excellent, searching questions ... you're really a very profound thinker.

Earl - You have a fun blog!
I really appreciate what you're doing.

Joe - You are my favorite theological blogger.

Jeremy - Good job ... Bye.

Todd - With blogs like this one there is plenty to be hopeful for in the blogsphere.

Matthew - Its nice to read an edifying Christian blog ... You are so level-headed.

Mark - You're real! The blogosphere needs more real people like you around.

Loren - I'll bet you stay up late nights thinking about all the theology that must be swimming through your head. I just want to say that it's great to see the ways in which God is challenging you, and using you to minister through your blog. The things you, and others here, have shared, are very thought provoking!

I think God is awesome. He calls red white and white red ... and He is reasonable all at the same time. He has a very incredible sense of color. This is important to artsy people like me.

Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
(Isaiah 1:18)

Q: Why do I call them 'posts of note'? A: Because they are about things that I think about ... or have thought about ... a lot.

These are people that are so very reasonable.

Although I don't necessarily agree with everything all these people say, I do think we have something essential in common - proclaiming that the Word of God is the absolute truth.

Bible Trivia

I read today that the Bible is the most shoplifted book. That surprises me.

  • Must be all the carnal Christians.

  • I guess if you're gonna shoplift something the Bible is the best thing! Hopefully they read it and are convicted of their sins!

    IN Christ,

  • It must be those totally depraved Calvinists. Wow, I didn't know there was so many of them. :o)

  • I forgot to say, Hi Rose.

    But the thing I was excited to see what that blogger said my comment was saved!

    Saved by grace through faith, I hope.

    Oh, it didn't mean that. Never mind.
    :o)

  • DH,
    You made me LOL yesterday, I will have you know. You are funny.

    Selah,
    Yes, it is ODD.

    Angela,
    The man who led me to the LORD actaully studied out of a Gideon's Bible that he took from a hotel room. I just remembered that.

    Earl,
    You are almost as funny as Matthew! I appreciate you too.

  • It almost seems to fly in the face of Dr Ironsides prescription, "This book will keep you from sin or sin will keep you from this book."

  • You are right, Brian! Good catch!
    It is like sin brought the shoplifter to the book - or brought the book to them.

  • Thanks Rose, just doing a little fly fishing on the side:-)

    Then again maybe God's catching...or flyfishing out the theif to get him to read the Bible:-)
