“Eye for eye, tooth for tooth” – Deuteronomy’s Justice
“Ultimately God is the final Judge, and in the meantime, people can (and do!) break His commands and commit many unjust and evil acts. Likewise, many courts have been (and still are!) corrupt and the innocent are unfairly punished for the crimes of the guilty. However, Deuteronomy did provide one caveat which was intended to severely curb such behavior…”
Ever wonder why so many people believe in the rapture?
“Dispensationalism’s most defining feature is its belief in “the Rapture”, where Jesus will return partially to earth and invisibly in order to “catch/snatch away” (Latin: rapturo) believers before unleashing a hellish 7-year (or 3.5 year, depending on which version one embraces) period known as “the Great Tribulation.”…”
Leaving India…and new friends
“I’m sitting in the airport lounge in Delhi right now waiting for my flight to Paris…then to Atlanta…then finally to Charlotte. 36 hrs of travel time total.”

“I love getting emails like this….It means that people in churches aren’t just imbibing one message from their favorite preacher, teacher or author!”

“As many of you know, I’m currently on a sabbatical from all theological/biblical/ministry-related blogging in order to focus on renewing and restoring my own relationship with God and to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit in my life…But I have to make an exception in light of the recent passing of one of my personal heroes of the faith, Rev. John R.W. Stott.”

Are the Young/Restless/Reformed crowd jerks?? (Part 2)
“Two points I’m trying to make here are 1) This [i.e. “jerkishness” is more a characteristic of the blogosphere than it is of the Reformed world and 2) In some cases, the leaders of the non- or anti-Reformed crowd are guilty of the same kind of inflammatory language they decry from no-name commenters on the other side.”
Are the Young/Restless/Reformed crowd jerks??
“In the wake of the hoopla surrounding Rob Bell’s book (i.e. “Bellgate”!) I’ve had the opportunity to discuss a number of issues with various friends who find themselves generally on the side of Bell’s sharpest critics. The conversations have been good and have challenged everyone involved (hopefully) to pursue truth and faithful orthodoxy, but with charity and Christian humility.”
