I`m very sorry - and moved - to hear that, Steve.
It`s a shame that no man is a hero to his valet. But maybe one day (or slowly) they`ll realise what a guy their dad is/was and will come around again.

Re: The victorious Gospel
Selah you wrote: I thought of a verse. "However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting." Matthew 17:21 I sat through and cringed through all the parts on youtube pertaining to this "experiment" (though I`m sure the producers well knew sparks would fly bringing these two families tog...

Re: The victorious Gospel
Thank you Selah for the quotes. You got through to me! Not just regarding my outlook on other people`s lives, but on my own too.

Re: The victorious Gospel
Hi Steve, All your replies impress me, but that one blew me away. I would address two points: 1 - — the clarity of their perception of the meaning of the gospel at the time of their decision to embrace it; When the new Christian picks up the Bible for the first time and reads it for his first "Quiet...

The victorious Gospel
I know this post might betray a more Man-centred mindset than a God-centred one, but I`ll make it anyway. I might learn something. At the end of the film The Passion of Christ the devil is portrayed as flailing his or her arms in rage up at the camera, designed to indicate his or her fury at being d...

Re: What are we to make of the Haiti earthquake?
I later heard Steve being asked nearly the same thing on a broadcast last week. He tried to give Pat Robertson some benefit of the doubt by saying perhaps he meant the devil was extracting his pound of flesh, rather than that God himself was wreaking revenge. In view of the aftershocks today, weren`...

Re: In need of new website photo
For this site I wouldn`t change anything, not even the photos. People are drawn to at least sample this site by the urgent relevance of the issues to them. They are kept here (if they have taste!) by the content and delivery of Steve`s broadcasts. Over-polishing it could be counter-productive in my ...

What are we to make of the Haiti earthquake?
I note Pat Robertson`s comments about the Haiti earthquake and God`s judgement on that country since it made a "pact with the devil" to get free of bondage to colonialism. You can imagine the derision in atheist circles. Haiti also lies along a fault-line: http://scienceblogs.com/highlyallochthonous...

It`s only important to me insofar as Jesus upheld it as the Word of God and as something to fulfil rather than cancel out.A modern view can find much in the Torah to be objectionable. But so what?

Re: Does adultery really break the marriage bond?
I found this in relation to earlier verses 16,17: "The unbetrothed daughter was part of her father`s property, and her value would be diminished by the loss of her virginity. Compensation had to be paid and the man had to marry her. Should the father refuse, the marriage price was still to be paid"....
