What We're Praying/Talking About

Our faith in action, or our small contribution in trying to apply what we're taught in Hebrews 5-6 and James 2:17-26 for the benefit of our dear brothers and sisters within the Body of Christ...

Forced By Logic - Notable Quotable

Here's a quote I saw on The Rapture Alert today...

"When I began my career as a cosmologist some twenty years ago, I was a convinced atheist. I never in my wildest dreams imagined that one day I would be writing a book purporting to show that the central claims of Judeo-Christian theology are in fact true, that these claims are straightforward deductions of the laws of physics as we now understand them. I have been forced into these conclusions by the inexorable logic of my own special branch of physics."

I love it when God gets hold of someone's heart and mind and begins drawing them to Him! What a powerful testimony from a well-respected "smarty pants", huh?

Years ago there was an article in the NYtimes from a scientis who mapped out the universe and found it's dementions in the shape of a dodecahedron (12 sided shape).

My FB quote for the day is:
Image is the illusion of a reality we create for ourselves to self soothe; so when reality comes to us and our illusions come crashing down, who or what will we turn to then for comfort?

Like Frank Tipler, may we all come to the end of ourselves and embrace the truth that sets us free!

I wish somehow God could get a hold of my mind and bring me back to where I was. I feel like David Psalm 51:12 asking Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
