"He Slapped Me" Scripture

 It's nothing i plan on, but God does sometimes work through my not doing the right thing.
  The most notable incident like that was the time i THOUGHT i had sent out an encouragement card, then found it, ready to go, months later.  i noted this on the back of the envelope, then sent it on.
  My friend later told me that it meant more at the time it arrived than if it had come when i meant it to.

  But this time, i was simply not paying attention.  Well, He took care of THAT.
  My lesson, about Ruth, wanted me to look up Galatians 2:20.
  For some reason, i got to Galatians 6.
  There is no 6:20, so, instead of referring back to the lesson book, i read the entire chapter.
  That was when i got socked.

  Back in the day, it was legalism.  As Dr. McGee said, you never get in trouble for preaching legalism.
  But it's also going with the flow.
"So that they will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ."
 What is it that will not rock the boat, keep me out of trouble?  
i look around me and see headlines of people changing what they said not very long ago, "keeping up with the times."  
  Have they really been convinced that they were wrong, or are they trying to make things simpler for themselves?

   “Whether it is right in the sight of God to give heed to you rather than to God,

 you be the judge; . . .
We must obey God rather than men."

  

Welcome to my next blog!

  It seemed some of the things i was wanting to say in my Wonder-full blog were getting too deep and spiritual for its purpose, yet i need to get these out here too.
  So - ta da - another blog.  This one will appeal to my Saturday Sisters fans, and maybe also to some guys who are put off by the "Sisters" part of the title. 
  Come anyone who's interested.  Don't expect me to be conventional here, or try to please people.  On my main blog, i will try to post regularly and be conscious of search engines, but not here.  i look at the Scriptures, those 66 books in what's called the Protestant Bible, and all sorts of other stuff.
   It could get ugly.  i promise you messy

  All truth is God's truth.  i can safely follow where He leads.

  The title of this blog is from this Scripture:
. . . there arose another generation after (the ones who crossed the Jordan into the Promised Land) who did not know the Lord, nor yet the work which He had done for Israel.

That is to say, the new generation did not know God & what He had done, because miracles (like Jericho, parting the Jordan) were not needed, and the folks who experienced them did not SHARE the experience, as they were repeatedly told to do, with their children.  There needs to be something organic about living your life of faith and talking about your life of faith, or it doesn't come through.
  i've reposted the Listening to Young Atheists article on Wonder-FULL. It bears careful attention, especially the link to the study that inspired Theophilis.
