“The church at large, not only the church at Corinth, never has learnt, and never can learn, this truth in such a way as to be beyond the danger of forgetting it, and the Corinthian letters stand in the New Testament as in some respects its clearest and most urgent reminder of this eminently forgettable… [Read more…]

I’m a fan of country music. Yes, I am. I enjoy both the old true country and the new pop country. I heard a little quip the other day though, about “new” country.

You probably read the title and thought I wanted to advise a healthy skepticism or critical thinking. And you’d be right, I do, but not in the sense you are probably thinking.

I don’t know why but I think the word fritter is cool. It rolls off the tongue and sounds weird. It almost has a trill to it. And it’s a good way to describe the way you and I waste time. Yes, you know you do. I do. I have a lot. But I’m raging… [Read more…]

“Every last material creature on this globe will come to an end.

I’ve blogged intermittently for several years. I have few readers. Oh, well. Anyways, the most read post ever of all the wise and smart things I’ve had to say is the observation that the word stupid is actually used in Scripture. Other not so nice words are occasionally used in Scripture as well but we’ll… [Read more…]

OK. Booksmoore is coming back. I’ve given it a slight facelift and moved some things around a bit. I’m simplifying it. Few pictures. The focus is on content, hopefully good content. What blogs do you read because of the pictures, cool graphics, and slick fonts? Few I guess. I read blogs mostly through Google Reader,… [Read more…]
