1 Corinthians chapter 2 "When I came to you brothers and sisters, I did not come proclaiming the mystery of God to you in lofty words or wisdom." I'm afraid the Christian church would have failed in those years had that been the method the Disciples had used. Our God comes to his people in the way we can accept Him. He reaches us thru love and the simple understanding that if we believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ that we are saved and belong to Him. The basic Gospel is John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." There is, of course more to learn but if you believe in that one statement the rest makes more sense and comes to you easier.
On this day
2002 After work my day was just beginning. Nicole had basketball practice and a sports check up. This would be her senior year starting up and school activities were ramping up as well. I had to go over to the A field concession stand to get it cleaned up for the coming year. I was on the Mom and Dad club responsible for all the concession stand stuff. After that I stopped at Karen Mathis' house for a jewelry party. Gotta make room for some fun, ya know!
1676 - "King Phillip's War" came to an end with the killing of Indian chief King Phillip. The war between the Indians and the Europeans lasted for two years. different Indians - same stupidity.
