Love your enemy and do good to those who persecute you…….

May 14, 2004

My American cousins continue to amaze me. I am glad that Nick has asked the question ‘How Can We Be Christians and Hate All Iraqis?’ but am rather bemused that it needed to be asked by an American Christian at all. But need to be asked it did! I had planned on staying out of [...]

Martyn Lloyd-Jones, hearing from God and the charismatics…

May 13, 2004

Finding God’s Will

May 9, 2004

Jollyblogger and others have been essentially saying that there is no such thing as a specific will of God for my life. Quoting Augustine Love God, and then do what you like we are told to simply make our own decisions. Now it is with great hesitation that I beg to differ with such an [...]

Red Cross saw ‘widespread abuse’ in Iraq over several months

May 8, 2004

I wish my return to blogging after a brief hiatus could be on a more pleasant subject. Like most of the rest of the world I have been reeling with shock regarding the awful stories we have been hearing of abuse of Iraqui prisoners. Initially I was shocked, but disappointed that the photos were being [...]
