THE WORLD (to itself): We really need to throw off the yoke of Biblical faith. We'll be fine. In fact, we'll be better! THE WORLD (answering itself): Sounds good! < five minutes later > THE WORLD: Uh... what's this thing in my pants mean, and what's it for?

Know of any helpful essays or the like about professed Christian teachers/writers who want to call themselves "Rabbi"? Or have you given it thought? I'll start. I think it's ALWAYS a bad sign, a red light; or if not so, then very-nearly-always. I have smart followers. I hope to get a lot of engagement on this.

It’d be a shame if every Christian in the MLB started writing Bible verses on their hats.
MLB has reportedly warned players that writing Bible verses on team hats will not be permitted after several San Francisco Giants pitchers wrote bible verses on their Pride Night caps.

Just got a fun idea. If I owned a television network, I would set apart a week every year where every show on my lineup would change genres. Legit change. A crime procedural would have aliens land. A comedy would go deep drama. A western would have a werewolf pop up. One episode, one week only, every year. Wouldn't that be fun, @HollywoodInToto?

Relaying his conversion, Paul does not say "But when I realized" or "figured out" or "learned" or any verb paired with an "I." He says, "But when God was pleased" (Galatians 1:15).

Trump won we don’t have to do this anymore
Three Giants pitchers wore Bible verses on their Pride Night caps during Friday’s game. MLB has since issued a warning to them.

So far, "a lot of engagement" is being ZERO engagement. /c:

"It would prevent many crosses, if we would conceive of things as they are." [Sibbes, Complete Works, vol. 1 (Edinburgh; London; Dublin: James Nichol; James Nisbet and Co.; W. Robertson, 1862), 190.]

There is actually a startling amount of wisdom in this. The truth, though and of course, is not that God needs to do anything different. The truth is that people need to hear, believe, and obey Him. We're born with basically nothing but sin and folly. They are our original equipment as children of Adam (Proverbs 22:15; Romans 5:12). So God gives us parents, and commands us to honor them — which includes, but means more than, obeying them (Exodus 20:12; Ephesians 6:1-3; Colossians 3:20). Also in church, it IS NOT God's intent that there be "young people" churches and "old people" churches. It is God's intent that churches have young AND old people, and that they serve and grow in harmony (Titus 2:1-8). Young people should bring zeal for the Lord, energy, drive, and aspiration—and they should seek, welcome, and be tempered by the experience and wisdom of their elders. Older saints should value and cherish the energy of the young, NEVER seek to dampen it, ALWAYS seek to encourage, mature, and steadily direct it. This is God's way and wisdom.

If even Peter or Paul showed up and told me to be Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, or Mormon, I wouldn’t be. Know why? Because “even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed” (Galatians 1:8).

John MacArthur's position on if women can be pastors. The simple answer is no. "I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet." - 1 Timothy 2:12

For a rarity, I'm having the kind of Monday most pastors seem to have.

Interpretive grid: this is not a good thing, for me. Usually I'm bright and optimistic and motivated on Mondays.
