κηρυσσων την βασιλειαν του θεου και διδασκων τα περι του κυριου ιησου χριστου μετα πασης παρρησιας ακωλυτως. The underlying meaning of this blog is this: the essential unity of Christians worldwide regardless of race, nationality, or religious denomination. There are real disagreements among us but there is a small remnant in every authentically Christian gathering. The Holy Spirit is leading His remnant into deeper understandings of the "meat" of the Gospel and not just the "milk."

Worshipping the paper
"... I think God was wise in not allowing the original autographs to survive, He wants us to hear His word and obey it, not worship it. If we had the original manuscripts (or anything old enough that it could possibly be an original), I'm afraid people would set up shrines and worship the paper." Alan Kent Scholes, in What Christianity is All About (1999).
