http://www.galleriamoitre.com/x9j8jec9e As you can see from the comments to previous posts, there is a very strong reaction in America to posts having to do with economics. So, let’s keep going. The Year of Jubilee The biblical requirement is that the Jubilee year was to be treated like a Sabbatical year, with the land lying fallow, but […]

The Old Testament God was a socialist; the New Testament God is a capitalist, part 02

https://oringsuspensiones.com/en/xdr6vleb Now, you may expect me to advocate a particular economic viewpoint from the Old Testament, but I am not. In fact, I may say something that will surprise you. There is no way, with certainty, to support either one economic system or one political system simply from reading the Old Testament, or even the New […]

The Old Testament God was a socialist; the New Testament God is a capitalist, part 01

https://regenamex.com/jh0ub6zm One of the raging debates in American Christianity today has to do with whether President Obama is a socialist. Much has been written about how God is not against people being rich, therefore implying that any attempt to regulate how people make riches is tantamount to opposing God’s economic policies, therefore it must be sin.

Moderate frustration

Well, I think I have all the widgets restored. However, to my dismay, over 50% of the posts + comments show some minor corruption. There is no way to fix it other than going over every post and comment individually, something I do not have time to do. As best I can tell, it is […]

Ambien Sale Online By this afternoon I hope to have finished repairing the main content of the site and have repaired the widgets. At least I did not lose that database of posts.

https://regenamex.com/26u0bred For those of you who tried to read this site today and found it either down or trying to send you a file, I apologize. Apparently the wordpress update to 2.8 worked fine until there was a server crash at 2:00 pm. When the server came back up, WordPress decided that it was broken and […]

On fireflies and the Kingdom of God

20 June 2009 · by Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

https://adamkaygroup.com/uncategorized/pdajc1i On another blog there is a discussion about the Kingdom of God. As we all know, the Kingdom of God was a constant theme in Jesus’ preaching according to the Synoptic Gospels. “The Kingdom of God is at hand.” “The Kingdom of God is among you.” Even to the last, when Jesus stands before Pilate, he speaks […]

Israeli / Palestinian connundrum

https://www.daathize.com.br/90dx38fx8qg The editorial cartoon above was created by David Horsey. But, when Father Orthoduck saw it, it reminded him of an ongoing morality study online. In typical psychology fashion, the designers of the questionnaire put it together in such a way that the people who responded did not know what the researchers were testing until the questionnaire was […]

A Baptist view of Orthodox worship

Below is a post from the website “Real Live Preachers.” I hope you enjoy it. It was most helpful to me to read an outsider’s evaluation. It brought many memories to me. But, it does point out what part of the pull of Orthodoxy is. Not for Lightweights Mon, 06/01/2009 – 16:48 Last Sunday was […]

On grandkids and failure to post

17 June 2009 · by Fr. Ernesto 5 Comments

http://www.servicebrandglobal.com/img/repovej/ Ok, so why did I not post today? (It is 10 pm right now.) Well, frankly, I was driving back from visiting the grandkids. I spoiled them and my daughters (two of the three) rotten, as well as a future son-in-law. We went to the Birmingham Zoo; I spent tons of money on snacks, funny […]
