gosh, I hadn’t realized I was writing such boring uninteresting posts….no comments in several days… guess I better go back to posts on how to read a book – that’s been not an unpopular topic. even Dave Black linked it!

συνεσταύρωμαι: living the crucified life 
I tend not to comment on posts that require me to actually think. 😉
Seriously, the Genesis sermon is going to take a little while to digest, and I couldn’t really be less interested in Senator Kennedy (aside from hoping that he gets saved and healed). And I don’t have time to read the things you linked to in the Pentecostal-Calvinist post to be able to offer a comment at the moment.
So here’s a comment… And I actually had to think a little bit about it… Darn you! 😛
was the genesis sermon too much (it was only 15 minutes long)? I just feel for the Kennedy family (or any family for that matter) who has member with brain cancer – I know what that’s like. I wouldn’t wish that on any one. Well, we all know your a closet calvinist!
It wasn’t the length of the sermon, it’s just something I’d like to reflect on. And I hear you about the brain cancer thing, I too had an uncle (by marriage) who died of brain cancer, and another uncle (by marriage) who presently has a brain tumor (benign, priase God!). If I’m a Calvinist, then Calvinists are alright with me! 😛
BTW, the Monergism book store has a lot of good stuff in it. Even some stuff written by non-Calvinists!
I commented on your ISV post three days ago. I’m actually thinking about ordering the NT of it, except it’s $30 for a freaking hardcover NT !!! We shall see.
Nate: $40??! Gosh, that’s a bit high for a NT hardcover.
Nick: I know a little about the monergism store, I just try to veer away from the hardcore calvinist stuff – and I know you do to.
is posting a sermon okay or too much?
I generally don’t read anything much longer than a few paragraphs. If I do, it’s because someone else read it, and then posted about it, or had an interesting comment that urges me to spend the time to read the whole thing. For an example, I keep my blog posts pretty short and don’t read much of anything longer than what I do myself. Don’t let me stop you though, if that is your sort of thing. 8)
