Crushed Leviathan
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/index.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Friday, November 22, 2013. I've been reading The Open Secret. By Alister McGrath. It's a fantastic book on how to have a distinctly Christian Natural Theology. I haven't finished it yet, but each chapter is inspiring. What is Natural Theology? I would define it as how God has revealed himself through nature. If such a statement makes you recoil and shout, "But what about the Bible, isn't it enough? Then let us start with Psalm 19:1 among others. I think I would say that God cre...

Crushed Leviathan: July 2013
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Saturday, July 13, 2013. Build a caricature then tear that down. The other day someone gave Lady R a Muslim track in front of the British Museum. She brought it home, and we both read it. I know Christians do the same thing, but building a caricature of the other and then tearing that down will not normally win anyone over. Idris is a biblical prophet along with Muhammad. Jesus was a only a great teacher/prophet. There are so many conflicts about the life of Jesus that this...

Crushed Leviathan: Can anything good come out of you?
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/2012/03/can-anything-good-come-out-of-you.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Wednesday, March 07, 2012. Can anything good come out of you? How do we answer the question, "Why are some atheists/secularists good and why are some believers not? Than their believing counterparts. Why? Shouldn't followers of Christ have more sensitivity to the needs around them than someone who believes very little about Jesus, much less trusted him for forgiveness? Humans have the potential for great good. But we will never be as good as possible. Humans also have t...Journ...

Crushed Leviathan: Relucant Warrior or King Disguised
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/2012/03/relucant-warrior-or-king-disguised.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Wednesday, March 07, 2012. Relucant Warrior or King Disguised. In trying to understand more about Islam, I am reading through. My comments are not directed at the author, Rosalyn Rushbrook. But I am using her information as my source of knowledge for my understanding of Islam. So PM was a relucant warrior. Sounds pretty noble. But what would have happened if he had been led to the slaughter as a lamb, not opening his mouth? Labels: Looking at Islam. 2015 did not exist.

Crushed Leviathan: December 2010
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Monday, December 27, 2010. Christmas sermon after the fact. I didn't get to give a Christmas sermon this year. But if I had it would have been on sin. The background for the sermon would have come from a recent conversation I had with a former Hindu who is now a follower of Christ. After I found out he was a believer and that his background was Hindu, I asked him, "How do you talk about Jesus to Hindus, knowing that He is accepted among the many gods as just another god? Salvat...

Crushed Leviathan: They are all telling us a story
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/2013/06/they-are-all-telling-us-story.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Sunday, June 23, 2013. They are all telling us a story. Who doesn't like a good story? Because of the ancient sources, I think we can say in the least that there was a flood of some sort that has stayed in the conscious minds of people for a very long time after that event. There were probably survivors who found refuge in a big boat. They may even have had some animals aboard. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Upcoming Conference on Manuscript Forgeries in Kristiansand.

Crushed Leviathan: "What must I do to be saved?"
http://crushedleviathan.blogspot.com/2012/06/what-must-i-do-to-be-saved.html
Out of chaos sprang order. Monday, June 18, 2012. What must I do to be saved? The story goes that after Paul and Silas disrupted the business of fortune-telling exploiters in Philippi that they were beaten and jailed. The jailer, when he got the order, put them in the inner cell and put their feet in stocks. We are all here! I think the jailer realized he had just lost everything; his job, his prisoners and consequently his family and ultimately his life. He asked for lights and rushed in trembling b...
