Life is didactic, eh? Sold the old company, started a new one. Keep moving, keep pressure on the enemy. Pressure on the wound. Hallo, friend.

Life is didactic, eh?

Sold the old company, started a new one. Keep moving, keep pressure on the enemy. Pressure on the wound.

It shall be interesting to see where we end up, eh? We are still here, still available and please feel no pressure to do anything but hear the Lord and we will wait with you for His timing. All the best to you and yours from me and mine. Oh my friend, I hear you, I hear you, I hear you… :) It seems as though the Lord is leading both our families along similar paths.

]]> Comment on Atheism and the Problem of Evil by fred http://eaglewoodsnest.org/?p=612&cpage=1#comment-7850 fred Mon, 05 Oct 2009 13:37:34 +0000 http://eaglewoodsnest.org/?p=612#comment-7850 Like Erik I tend to think of evil as not so much an entity to itself but as the absense of good (which I equate to the absense of God - James 1:17). Similar to how there is absolute zero at which point it can get no colder or darkness being the point where there is absolutely no light and it can get no darker it seems, to me anyway, that evil can be characterized as the absense of good.

I think you touched on something that I've always said makes a huge difference in any relationship and that is that quitting is never an option. If the option of quitting is there, then as soon as times are hard (and there is not one of us that does not have hard times), we will quit. Our society has forgotten what commitment means. It's refreshing to someone who understands and believes in that. So congrats to you both. Anyone who can make it through 19 years of life together these days deserves a metal... Congrats!

Birdie is a nickname or more importantly her online pen name. We prefer not to use our real names on our blogs in order to protect the identities of our children. Your first question is an intriguing question and one I may ultimately may not be qualified to answer. In short I probably would answer no because Jehovah had required a blood sacrifice for atonement of sins. There also were a multitude of very specific prophecies concerning how Yeshua would be put to death. So in short if a person had made the claims that Yeshua made but was not executed in the manner prophesied he would not have been the Messiah. On the other hand HOW He died is not so important to me, other than fulfilled prophecy, as to the life He led and His claims on who He was/is, and that He was resurrected according to the scriptures. The fact is that ultimately the question is moot as we could concoct all manner of what ifs about the manner of His death, but it does not change the extremely brutal death He endured. Pennyworth,

Love, Penneyworth I have a few questions for you:

This was brought up anew for me as I was reading thru II Maccabees and Judas believed in the eventual resurrection so that portion of our beliefs predates the coming of the Christ by some time. Thanks.
