Can I have a gulfstream jet in order to aid my blogging? Please? I can give you my PayPal details to donate to, if you like!
Benny Hinn wants one.
Are you amused? I’m amused. Everyone knows that if you have faith, Jesus will give you the power of flight. I mean, duh.

This is over 2000 words long. I think that makes it my longest article up here. Sorry, for the length, but splitting it didn’t seem appropriate and it just took that long to deal with the issues.
Quick bit of background. Impact is the official student magazine at Nottingham Uni. (There is an unofficial student newspaper, […]
The University’s student magazine ‘Impact’ has an article on the CU. When I’ve read it, I’ll comment. For now, though, here are some interesting links about why what has happened in Exeter and has been in the news lately about Christian Unions, will not be happening in Nottingham:
Students Union blog about their meeting with the […]
“The events of saving history in the Old Testament prefigure and demonstrate the pattern of the one true and perfect saving act yet to come. They do it well enough to point the people of that time to the way of salvation by grace through faith. God is not playing games with Israel for the […]

What I’m really quite interested in if anyone has seen any information, and this isn’t intended to pass comment really yet, is what the local churches in these cities think. Are they supporting the CUs against the SU? Are they supporting the decision […]
Some more dissertation type-stuff (Is this actually interesting? I’m less compelled to post this anyway if it isn’t). This is about E. P. Sanders, who’s a major New Perspective figure, and kicked it all off with his book Paul and Palestinian Judaism.
Sanders suggests that both Paul and Judaism regard works as the principle of continuing […]
The emerging church proclaims a gospel of freedom. According to the gospel of freedom, we were made to live in community with God and with each other without the pains of sin and death. But because of our sin, we have wrecked God’s good creation and brought death and havoc into all of life. And […]
Even in such an aniconic tradition as OT Judaism, the significance of the Mosaic cultus is incomprehensible apart from an elementary grasp of symbolism.
Genius.
I’m loving me some Triablogue when I’m pretty sure I’m s’posed to be writing an essay on “English Arminianism” in the late 16th and early 17th centuries; and the state of “orthodoxy” […]
