Is a bear Catholic? Does the Pope live in the woods?

"Let me put it this way: each one of you says something different. One says, 'I follow Paul'; another, 'I follow Apollos'; another, 'I follow Peter'; and another, 'I follow Christ.' Christ has been divided into groups! Was it Paul who died on the cross for you? Were you baptized as Paul's disciples?"

Jesus Crucified For Me

The more time passes, the more I realize why Jesus had to be crucified for me. I am too weak to keep God's law. Jesus' sacrifice is the only way I will ever enter the kingdom.

The Matrix Has You

I was thinking about some disturbing news I'd heard this week. Stephen Hawking has declaired that there is no God. It may be faith breaking for some to hear that from such a smart man and an authority in the scientific comunity. Then I remembered, after reading a passage in a Bible study, that we're in the matrix anyway.
"You must do this, because you know that the time has come for you to wake up from your sleep. For the moment when we will be saved is closer now than it was when we first believed." Romans 13:11 (TEV)

Secret Net

So I was reading the 31st Psalm tonight, and one phrase meant something to me today: "Take me out of the net that they have secretly set for me, for you are my tower of strength." Psalms 31:4 (BAS) Why was the net set in secret? Well, if I had seen it, perhaps I would have avoided it; I'd like to think I would have. If it is set in secret, then I could be tricked into walking into it, deceived. The net of course is sin. How many times have we said somethink like, "It's not really all that bad"? Well, if it's wrong I guess it's wrong. But if the enemy can trick us into thinking that it is okay, then we have walked into the net set in secret.
