Early one spring morning, while the lawn was still covered with dew,
I awoke from a deep and restful slumber to start the day anew.
Perched on the rooftop, fresh Owens Corning Shingles, ready to install,
Very odd indeed, looking so layered, so tall.
One by one out of their bundles, precisely they lay,
Not one turn, not one tumble, almost like play.
Non-stop they cover this place, such a fast pace,
On again, on again, vibrations in time,
Hypnotic rhythms, a hypnotic rhyme.
Hunger and a grumble, a smile, no time,
An appetite can mumble to satisfy lunchtime.
Oh my! A loud tummy in need,
It’s break-time indeed for the roofing machine.
Time to feed—then rise once more,
With bread in hand, the roof to restore,
A house now whole beneath the sun’s gleam,
Built by sweat, shingles, and a well-fed dream.
It is through the faith given to us by Jesus Christ that we become "Born Again".
Love in Action = ROMANS 12: 9-13
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need.
Practice hospitality.

Yep, his job he loves, come watch and see.

Aristotle is a towering figure in ancient Greek philosophy, who made important contributions to logic, criticism, rhetoric, physics, biology, psychology, mathematics, metaphysics, ethics, and politics. He was a student of Plato for twenty years but is famous for rejecting Plato’s theory of forms. He was more empirically minded than both Plato and Plato’s teacher, Socrates. A prolific writer, lecturer, and polymath, Aristotle radically transformed most of the topics he investigated. In his lifetime, he wrote dialogues and as many as 200 treatises, of which only 31 survive. These works are in the form of lecture notes and draft manuscripts never intended for general readership. Nevertheless, they are the earliest complete philosophical treatises we still possess. As the father of western logic, Aristotle was the first to develop a formal system for reasoning. He observed that the deductive validity of any argument can be determined by its structure rather than its content, for example, in the syllogism: All men are mortal; Socrates is a man; therefore, Socrates is mortal. Even if the content of the argument were changed from being about Socrates to being about someone else, because of its structure, as long as the premises are true, then the conclusion must also be true. Aristotelian logic dominated until the rise of modern propositional logic and predicate logic 2000 years later. The emphasis on good reasoning serves as the backdrop for Aristotle’s other investigations. In his natural philosophy, Aristotle combines logic with observation to make general, causal claims. For example, in his biology, Aristotle uses the concept of species to make empirical claims about the functions and behavior of individual animals. However, as revealed in his psychological works, Aristotle is no reductive materialist. Instead, he thinks of the body as the matter, and the psyche as the form of each living animal. Though his natural scientific work is firmly based on observation, Aristotle also recognizes the possibility of knowledge that is not empirical. In his metaphysics, he claims that there must be a separate and unchanging being that is the source of all other beings. In his ethics, he holds that it is only by becoming excellent that one could achieve eudaimonia, a sort of happiness or blessedness that constitutes the best kind of human life. Aristotle was the founder of the Lyceum, a school based in Athens, Greece; and he was the first of the Peripatetics, his followers from the Lyceum. Aristotle’s works, exerted tremendous influence on ancient and medieval thought and continue to inspire philosophers to this day.
Other religions may seem similar to Christianity, but they're all lacking one critical component. Ray Comfort expands on this important point, and then addresses this same topic in an evangelism conversation.

On page one of the Bible, God orders a beautiful world out of chaotic darkness within a sequence of six days. And on the seventh day, God rests. This introduces the major biblical theme of patterns of seven that conclude with God and humans resting together as partners. In this video, we explore the theme of seventh day rest and the biblical concept of Sabbath. We also look at why Jesus adopted this idea as a major part of his own mission to bring God's Kingdom to earth.

18For I consider that 2 Cor. 4:17; (1 Pet. 1:6; 4:13)the sufferings of this present time are not worthy tobecompared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19For (2 Pet. 3:13)the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.
20For Gen. 3:17–19the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;
21because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious (2 Cor. 3:17); Gal. 5:1, 13liberty of the children of God.
22For we know that the whole creation Jer. 12:4, 11groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.
23Not only that, but we also who have 2 Cor. 5:5; Eph. 1:14the firstfruits of the Spirit, 2 Cor. 5:2, 4even we ourselves groan (Luke 20:36)within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the Luke 21:28; Eph. 1:14; 4:30; (Phil. 3:20, 21)redemption of our body.
24For we were saved in this hope, but Rom. 4:18; 2 Cor. 5:7; Heb. 11:1hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?
25But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.
26Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For Matt. 20:22; 2 Cor. 12:8we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but John 14:16; Rom. 8:15; Eph. 6:18the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27Now 1 Chr. 28:9He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints 1 John 5:14according to thewillof God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those
2 Tim. 1:9who are the called according to His purpose.
29For whom 2 Tim. 2:19He foreknew, Rom. 9:23; 1 Cor. 2:7; Eph. 1:5, 11He also predestined (2 Cor. 3:18)tobe conformed to the image of His Son, (Col. 1:15, 18); Heb. 1:6that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30Moreover whom He predestined, these He also Rom. 8:28; 9:24; 1 Cor. 1:9; Gal. 1:6, 15; 5:8; Eph. 1:11; 3:11; 2 Thess. 2:14; (Heb. 9:15; 1 Pet. 2:9; 3:9)called; whom He called, these He also 1 Cor. 6:11; (Gal. 2:16)justified; and whom He justified, these He also John 17:22; Rom. 8:21glorified.
Having to prove the existence of God to an atheist is like having to prove the existence of the sun, at noon on a clear day. Yet millions are embracing the foolishness of atheism. “The Atheist Delusion” pulls back the curtain and reveals what is going on in the mind of those who deny the obvious. It introduces you to a number of atheists who you will follow as they go where the evidence leads, find a roadblock, and enter into a place of honesty that is rarely seen on film.
From Living Waters, creators of the award-winning TV program “The Way of the Master” and the hit movies “180” and “Evolution vs. God,” comes the powerful film “The Atheist Delusion.” Executive produced by TV co-host and best-selling author Ray Comfort (Hell’s Best Kept Secret, Scientific Facts in the Bible).

Significant video editing was used to create a unique storyline about Oprah asking if Jesus is the only way to God and heaven. With appearances by Voddie Baucham, R. C. Sproul, Steven Lawson, and David Platt vs Joel Osteen, T. D. Jakes, Carl Lentz, Rob Bell, Billy Graham, and William Lane Craig.
READ BEFORE COMMENTING: 1. Watch Platt until the end :). 2. We would probably say that Billy Graham and William Lane Craig aren't in the same category as the other teachers in the list. Still, their view of people being saved without consciously knowing Jesus is very problematic.
