The Holy Spirit has invested considerably more Christian commitment into the identifying characteristics of the church than do the majority of church identification sermons!

A Jesus Observation #1 Jesus seemed much more concerned about reaching the lost than about conforming to the opinions of the “saved.”
The baby in a manger is biblical and engaging, thus I engage with a joyful and thankful heart! The carpenter rabbi who turned over the tables of human traditions and in answer to our wondering, "Are you talking to me," would say "Yes!" -- He is somewhat more difficult to engage.

"It is amazing how many people think that they can answer an argument by attributing bad motives to those who disagree with them. Using this kind of reasoning, you can believe or not believe anything about anything, without having to bother to deal with facts or logic."
