Today’s post by Dr. Skip Moen sparked a vein of frustration in me. It is about the Shema (the prayer that Jewish people say every day), and it’s translation in the gospels. First read his post here. Then you can read my comments, if you’d like: As a teacher, I see this mindset (that it’s [More >>>]
Psalm 119:4-8 You have commanded us To keep Your precepts diligently. 5 Oh, that my ways were directed To keep Your statutes! 6 Then I would not be ashamed, When I look into all Your commandments. 7 I will praise You with uprightness of heart, When I learn Your righteous judgments. 8 I will keep [More >>>]
