The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and

What you are expecting now, is a devotional written around,
how with God, nothing is impossible, you've heard them before
you will hear them again, but not this time. It seems impossible,
whatever it is, that's true. As an example, grown men have real
trouble climbing Mt. Everest; it is an almost impossible climb.
Then along comes a seven year old boy who wants to climb it
for a cause. It seems impossible, but you see, that isn't what
he saw, he saw a need, and he saw a faithful way, to do it.
A Dr. was told that there was no way to provide certain things
for his patients, but he found a faith, and a way to do it,
it seemed impossible, but he ran across the United States.
In so doing, what was impossible for his people, happened.
God isn't into impossible, that is a thing you and I see -
and that's easy to say, but it is true, God doesn't see the
possible or the impossible, think about it, God simply sees
what will take place. If we can find that vision, then I believe
that the Bible says we won't perish!
Pro 29:18 Where [there is] no vision, the people perish:
but he that keepeth the law, happy [is] he.

October Run - Here ...is Where- exactly?
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
One of the most fascinating presumptions that you will hear
people make is that they know where they are. The reason
that this is fascinating is that they are using a highly
figurative, and highly relative term. They aren't considering
three dimensional space, which they occupy, nor are they
likely taking in the enormous corner of the Milky Way
Galaxy they reside in, one of millions and millions of
galaxies in our universe- and then they aren't considering
the element of space time theory which says that you
cannot measure something without affecting it's relative
locale (Heisenberg's theory); nope they aren't taking
those things in, they just figure they know where they
are. They may be right, all things considered, but I'd
be willing to bet that given the all powerful nature of
Jesus, they might be presuming something they should
consider first, talk about second. Think first, speak
after. How big is Jesus- how powerful is Jesus? The
Bible puts it this way:
Hbr 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places
made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true;
but into heaven itself, now to appear in the
presence of God for us:

October Run - Soon
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
God knows our hearts, over against His own heart; two types of
hearts, one eternal by nature, one eternal by purchase; one that
is spirit, God, and one that is flesh, human. One that is the very
power of created order itself, God; and one that is the created,
human. Two hearts, but they exist, they are just different, we
are the mirror of God- and it's probably safe to make the jump
into God's heart, as in David being a man after God's own heart?
Which you can deduct from 1 Kings 11:4 and the Psalms 138:1.
These two hearts then form a bond when the Holy Spirit moves
inside the believer and through the power of the sacrifice of
Jesus, aligns itself to the love of God. The heart changes-
it is obvious, you can tell it right away, the difference is real,
and the reality of the change of heart is known, it is seen,
it is always the same, and it affects each person in the
same way; right? Wrong- every one of the those statements
past the scripture, are not true, they are put there to
get you to read with emotion- the truth is, nobody can see
the heart of a human, in this way, except, God!
Jer 24:7 And I will give them an heart to know me,
that I [am] the LORD: and they shall be my people,
and I will be their God: for they shall return unto
me with their whole heart.
So we come to the matter of telling us when He, God, is
going to send His Son, Jesus, back, to reign. The truth
is, He, God, has told us, it will be, soon.

October Run - The Second Coming
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
We are not astonished as we should be at what is taking place in our
lives. Christian's who understand the end times prophecy, are going
silent about the return of Christ as a reining King of Kings, and
Lord of Lord's, the grandeur of the King as he returns isn't being
shouted about; by the very ones that we would believe would be
shouting. Isn't that odd? It is odd, because the Bible, which
is without error, without mixture of error, the truth, God's Holy
word to us about what was, what is, and what is to come, which
God would know since He was, He is, and He is to come, literally
the Hebrew term He gave Moses to explain who Moses was listening
to from the bush consumed but not burnt (again the Hebrew way of
expressing that passasge); God knows the end, from the beginning.
So do Christian's - especially Christian's who pray, especially
if they ask God, if they ask for clarity about the return of the
King, they will get it, probably their Bible will fall off the
T.V. set, and the dust will make them cough and the Bible will
fly open to:
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught
up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the
air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
"Now Dana come on man, if they were prayin' they were readin'
their Bible." Think so? Would you be shocked that many
of the people who will talk with God, don't wait or listen
for an answer, nor look for an answer in the Word of God,
because they do not read it, haven't read it, and don't
base their faith upon it, they attend church, they believe
they are filled with the Holy Spirit, but they do not read
the Bible, therefore, their basis for their faith is
what they hear. Hope the preacher is filled with the Holy
Spirit, because if they aren't, then the person who does
not know what the Bible says, will be in a very dangerous
place. "well fine Dana what about a person who has
never really learned to read." Indeed, they are rare,
these days, but they do exist, so one question would
be, who should be reading God's word for them? This
is what the Bible says: Rom 10:17 So then faith
[cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

October Run - Life is ...Good
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
An amazing thing about God- He puts up with, us. Now you might
wonder about that, since we believe we are His creation, but
here is a thought for you to consider- we aren't. God, so far
as we can tell from the Bible, created a being called Adam.
Adam is Hebrew generic for, a man, that's what it means in
the original language- so God created a man, breathed into
him the "breath of life," literally a breathing soul. Yet
that man, chose to become apart from God. We are not like
that created man, we are like the result of that FALL- we
are the FALLEN- the tree which has sprung from each soul
that had faith after Noah. Welcome to the real world- here
we don't play, and so, as a result, the next time you
hear someone mistakenly say that we are created by God-
step back and wonder at this- for the truth is, God allows
a reproduction to take place, He knows about us in the
womb, numbers our hairs, and knows all; but we aren't
created by Him- we are a result of the fall. This is
why the following statement was necessary:
1Cr 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall
not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
When someone tells you a change is going to take
place, isn't your first question, "What?" Which is
followed closely, by, "When?" If it's a person we
ask "Who?" If it is about a populace we ask "Where?"
But in this instance we already know...why!

October Run - This Is About You
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
God brings some real challenges into your life, if you think
God isn't capable of such; and not just as some make believe
test of things, but as a real and very difficult part of what
it means to be in His family- then you have missed what His
Son went through so you'd have the privilege! Get it- it is
about you, Christianity rises and falls on the shoulders
of those who have the courageous faith to say,"we don't
buy into this world and it's values- we want the cross!"
Is that you- if it is and you turn up your nose at
opportunity- you better think again- God uses those things
that are gonna bless you, to turn out resources into a
world where you are the courier! Get it- it is about
you- so don't you dare get arrogant in the face of
what God the almighty has brought you today to bless
others with- that my friend, would be living dangerously.
Hey- don't take my word for it, listen to His son:
Mat 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but
are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him
which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
So when you are offered an opportunity to advance, to
become something more, don't glare at it, don't wonder
at it, don't whimper about it, no matter what, take the
opportunity seriously, for the one who you really do
need to fear, may just be the one who brings it on!

October Run - Oh Really
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
We've been skatin' around the rink on the end times, most
of that is because we are looking for something that only a
very few have seen, and of those who have seen, only but
a few have been sane enough to state what they saw after.
One of the clearest recollections we have of such comes
from the disciple that loved Jesus more than he loved
his own life; John. There are many stories about John,
some I believe, some aren't provable, it doesn't really
matter; here is what does; John was on Patmos island when
God chose to reveal to Him the actual nature of the
Messiah. From that point onward, John historically was
never the same again, and that, is provable. So we have
picture among pictures of what the end times will amount
to, and for those who believe in and have been saved by
and with Jesus, the end times are awesome. For those
who don't believe in and haven't been saved by and with
Jesus, the end times are also going to be awesome but
in an entirely different way. Either way, what we know
for certain is that they will happen; are happening,
and, have been happening since time began, and they
will continue to happen until there is no more time-
which is what we call, eternity, a place without time.
Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God
gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things
which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and
signified [it] by his angel unto his servant John:

October Run - Better
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
We want better, we would really love best, but we know
best is sometimes really hard to get, so we settle
for better. A better car, a better meal, a better
deal, a better time. Not the best meal, car,
deal, or time, just better. Now from a standpoint
that considers God and thinking about God and the
end of time, eschatology, we have to ask ourselves
this question; is best what God intended or is
better what God intended? The answer may surprise
you. First you might have gone into the bit about
God wanting His family to have the best. That
sounds logical, doesn't it, and it would seem
to fit with His general character. Better, on
the other hand, is all around us, so in some
sense, better must be a part of that? What
happens when it isn't best but it will work?
Lots of people living right there, they aren't
in the best, but they have it better, and better
seems to do? Does God want you to have something
that will do? Now let's tie into this what
we believe faith is? Let's use the standard
Bible based definition of faith:
Hbr 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things
hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Put them together and use your mind, it becomes
very clear that God wouldn't want you to
have anything that wasn't the best - why
would you hope for something that wasn't the
best? Ah, and now we hit it, didn't we? It
doesn't have to do with God, it has to do
with us, we settle, we are the ones who say,
"God I'm lonely, please hear my prayer and
provide someone for my heart." We are then
putting our God in the position of either
working with our request for a settled
situation, instead of, the best; imagine
David saying "I know she is beautiful but
she is someone elses wife...God I'd love
a woman of my very own just like that." Or
words to that effect, imagine what might
have changed? We settle, God on the other
hand, what happens with God? Well, since
this has to do with the last time things,
what do you think happens? Until tomorrow
let's pray for the ones we love...
Deu 32:20 And he said, I will hide my face
from them, I will see what their end
[shall be]: for they [are] a very
froward generation, children in whom
[is] no faith.
Luk 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge
them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son
of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Deu 32:20 And he said, I will hide my face
from them, I will see what their end
[shall be]: for they [are] a very
froward generation, children in whom
[is] no faith.
Luk 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge
them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son
of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

October Run - End Time - or - End Times
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Time might be taken as how you and I measure the passage of
events in our lives. Times might be taken as the environment in
which we find those events taking place. It is important to
distinguish the difference, we're about to get deep. Your heart
beats on average 70 or more times per minute. That means that
in an hour it has beat 4200.00 times for an average person.
In a day an average heart beats 100800.00 beats, and in a
years time 36792000.00 beats on average would occur.
That muscle is very resilient, wouldn't you say? This
physical heart has no relation to the soulful heart, they are
entirely different and yet we refer to the heart of a person
all the time, from the perspective of them having or not
having a heart. When your heart gets broken, what happens?
"OK, Dana we get it, but what does this have to do with the
end of time, that's what we were talking about, the end times."
Glad you asked, if you were eternal, the singular being to
whom time would have no relevance, and you created beings,
who, far as we can tell, are also eternal (angels), and one of
them turned out to be incapable of being what they were
created to be (Lucifer); what perspective on eternal time
would you have? In other words, have you ever considered
that up to the point of the war in heaven; eternity was
reality? After the war in heaven, time will come to some
point, where God ends it? How powerful is it when your
heart gets broken? Let's get back to who it is who made
us in His image? How powerful was it when Lucifer fell?
Did that break God's heart? How powerful is it when your
heart gets broken? When does time really end? Oh my..
Told you it was a little deep...until tomorrow, let's
pray for those we love.
Isa 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer,
son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the
ground, which didst weaken the nations!

October Run - Weekend Edition - Sunday - Wrote on Saturday
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Notice that up front in the title I wanted you to know that
I wasn't putting this together on Sunday...that way, couldn't
anybody say, the lad worked on a Sunday! Right(?)- we wouldn't
want to have to face some vague accusatory item, in the midst
of everything else going on in life, would we? Now as you
are asking, "Yeah ok fine, how is that a theological issue,"
remember, we are dealing with, the end times, that nice word,
eschatology- the study of the end times. Saw an interesting
book today written by a Ph.D. graduate of Dallas Seminary,
had to do with 2012; my wife is getting sick of hearing me
talk about it- how the prophecy of such might fit into the
other odd and assorted prophecy having to do with the end
of time. But you see, odd as it might seem, working on
Sunday as an issue, would only really mean anything to a few
folks- because, for the vast majority of people, the day
of the Sabbath, the day God set aside to go into a
contemplative mode after the work of the weeks is
complete, and the next week is getting lined up, the
day God Himself took a breather- that Holy Day, which
we are told to keep that way, HOLY, as in set apart, well
my friends, is it? Now as we start to dig into this matter
of the end of time, my prayer is that you'll take that
neck that gets so stiff so quick and let the heat
that my writing can build up under your behind
loosen that bad boy up a tad, cause guess what,
Jesus is coming back, guess when? Soon(!)- and
my friend if that isn't the end of time, then you
know a whole lot more than this writer about it.
Time will cease when the process of ending time
begins- time anyway, isn't anything that we actually
understand- for time, actually, belongs to who?
If you said God, you were right- only God is
outside time gazing in, the rest of us, are
reading book covers written by Ph.D's who'talk
about 2012 and the end of time!
Dan 12:9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel:
for the words [are] closed up and sealed
till the time of the end.
1Pe 4:17 For the time [is come] that judgment
must begin at the house of God: and if [it]
first [begin] at us, what shall the end [be]
of them that obey not the gospel of God?

October Run - The Weekend edition
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
One of the reasons that New Orleans just blows
me away is the ambiance of the city; there is no
other city like it, it is romantic yet French in it's
underpinning, love is in the air, and yet it is
European enough to be so sophisticated that
it isn't easy to get your head around the mass
that is there. We met a man on the
street who used corn stalks to bend
then into shapes of roses. He lived on the street,
but made more in a day by passerby's putting
coins in his hat for the roses; than I'd make
most months workin'. Watching "Heaven's Prisoners"
and "In The Electric Mist," one can't help but love
the character of Dave Robechaux, he just seems
like a New Orleans kind of personality. One is
acted out by Alec Baldwin and the other by
Tommy Lee Jones, both are splendid characterizations.
What do you think God thinks about actors?
What do you think God thinks about creativity?
Do you suppose God likes such? Do you suppose
that somewhere God even has a spark beyond
any human spark of creativity, so high, so
powerful, so lofty into creativity that it goes
beyond anything anybody could conceive of?
What if it was that which really put God off against
the rebellion spurned by Satan? Ever wonder
about how hurtful it must have been, and eternally
is, that one of His highest creations would turn
against Him? Not man, the Angel who was the
highest and most beautiful angel,
that is the one we call Lucifer. The war in
heaven is a theological nightmare because
it just isn't easy to figure
out given the book of Job, but we'll try next few days.
Rev 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his
angels fought against the dragon; and the
dragon fought and his angels,

October Run - About That Other Thing
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
The curiosity level which a person is familiar with, and the level
that they can handle in their life, is usually not examined. For
instance, if a friend tells you that they will get back to you
about something, and then they don't do it, does that make you
wonder what it was, or not? The level of curiosity which drives
a person, is a major factor in what they do when interacting with
others; some people cannot stand to be "left hanging." They
like to have things spelled out for them; which, means that
when it comes to God, they are often frustrated, an interesting
factor of theology is that God isn't apt to explain Himself,
except on God's terms, and in God's time. Some people have
a real hard time loving God under those conditions, yet,
God, if you notice, doesn't change to match their whims;
or, does He? If God changes to match your whim, doesn't
that impact upon how God is in turn, relating to someone
else? For example, we might ask that when God was freeing
the Israelites from Egypt He was also having a profound
effect upon that nation? We might wonder and gaze upon the
changes in Palestine as a result of the reassembling of the
nation Israel; in that while God was doing that He was
also profoundly effecting the world- so that in effect,
when you pray and ask God for something, are you ever
mindful of what that means in terms of others? Perhaps
one of the most difficult aspects of God is His nature,
His timeless, ageless and all powerful nature, where we
His family are concerned?
1Pe 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient,
when once the longsuffering of God waited in
the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing,
wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

October Run - You Are Good
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Three items determine what you will amount to, one of them
most important is character. The other item that really
seems important is workability, how you accomplish what
your character indicates to you should be done. The
third important item results from the combination of the
character and the work, that characteristic is your
philosophy. Now these might seem odd to you because
we aren't mentioning faith, we aren't God talking, and
this isn't your standard devotional twang. Guess why?
What do you suppose God uses to find your intent in
His mission for your life? What would God use to
see if you are up to what His intent for you is?
Now while your saying, "God already knows, because
God knows everything." What we want to ask is,
can that be true if there is such a thing as free will?
So this points to our question for today:
Gen 3:9 And the LORD God called unto Adam,
and said unto him, Where [art] thou?
While it might seem obvious, the answer to
this dilemma is deeper than many people
realize, and it includes free will.

October Run - At Stake
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Do you believe that Christianity will overcome every obstacle?
Do you believe that in the end of it all, Christian's win?
Do you believe that God has arranged everything so that when
all of time comes to the conclusion that it will reach; do
you believe God has Christian's in the winning place? These
questions deal with the end of time, a concept that from a
theologian's standpoint is one of the hardest to contemplate,
simply because we don't have the tools to analyze and think
about the end of time. Almost every theologian thinks on these
matters at some time, and inevitably, every theologian turns
to several different Bible based sources. In each of those
instances, they will deal with the Old Testament ( a word
which means contract or covenant) and the New Testament,
a division which naturally didn't occur in the writings,
but was inserted by interpreters based on the silence of
the last Prophet, Malachi, to the bursting upon the scene
of John the Baptist; that period is often referred to as the
silence between the testaments. Prophecy ceased, no incredible
religious happenings took place, the ritual of the worship,
continued on; those didn't stop. And so when John the Baptist
came into the wilderness preaching for those who were
hypocritical about the love of God, it was a shock- and
yet in those messages, the end, is spoken of; perhaps
you weren't aware of that? Hmm...
Mat 3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees
and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them,
O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to
flee from the wrath to come?

October Run- Thank Goodness
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
We have so many sayings that don't match up with
what we as a people profess to believe, and, as
followers of Christ we use them all the time. They
are innocent sayings, they aren't meant as an affront
to God, and yet, God hasn't changed, for God is
changeless. God is God, changeless and ageless, He
is eternal, He is without the need to change, and
yet He is change itself; God redefines what all is.
This God will have no other God's above Him- in
your life. So when something good happens and we say,
"Thank Goodness," we don't really mean it in the
strictest sense of being thanks to an unknown
entity, as some did in Greece, in Athens; where
they lined the roads with their Gods, including
one which they called the God that they didn't want
to offend by not having it present; they didn't know
if the God existed above all other Gods, they
wanted to be sure they hadn't missed a God. In
one of those historically befuddling moments, a
brilliant scholar and writer of the new faith
grabbed onto that idea, and spoke to them about
the God which they knew existed but were not wanting
to offend. The God above all God's, God Himself.
Act 17:23 For as I passed by, and beheld your
devotions, I found an altar with this inscription,
TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly
worship, him declare I unto you.

October run - Twelve is mysterious
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Twelve parts of something can be, large, or small,
but twelve parts is twelve parts, a unit of numbering
uniquely oriental in it's origin. Have you ever looked
right at something and missed it, like looking
at a Chameleon sitting on a leaf, at first you see,
only the leaf, as you continue to watch, however,
a portion of the leaf moves, and that's when you
know about the lizard. Noticing, seeing, observing,
they aren't uniquely human, we now know from
research that many animals have the lens to see
things similarly to what we as human beings see
them; but we uniquely classify and define what
we discern. So far as we are able to determine
that makes our seeing of a different form
altogether, we look right at things
sometimes, but don't see them. Consider
how it is not the large body nature of gravity
which is so mind boggling, rather it is
the fact that gravity works at the sub atomic
level, that particles and elements which we
can't see compose everything which we can; and
that all of those components which we cannot
see, uniquely balance in order that everything
remains in absolute balance, at least that is how
it appears. We now realize, however, that partial
imperfections which aren't large enough to cause
reactions beyond a very limited range
may in fact occur, we just weren't aware of
them. Thus once again, it is not the amazingly
large scale of God which is so beyond our ability
to reason, but rather the infinitely small which
we are only aware of by seeing the immensely
and amazingly large. All of everything which we
observe is made and held in balance of small
components which we can't observe. Thus when
a man and a woman have a child, three becomes
a perfectly recognizable unit, when taken
to the point of perfecting, if multiplied by that same
number as the unit plus one of growth, it becomes
four times three which is twelve, and twelve is
a very interesting number, in Hebrew and
Greek language it is viewed as a complete number,
not large, not small, complete. We can't see the
nuclear components of any of this, and yet, perfectly
balanced, it exists, as does God, and that is a
mind boggling theological idea.

October Run - Eleven - Hmm
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
What do you do when something falls short? Here is an awesome
theological concept of God, when something falls short, God
gives time, gives power, gives guidance, gives resources, gives
whatever will assist in the process of bringing the remaining
missed mark into alignment with the overall Godly result. Now
If you've never wondered about that, sin is missing the mark,
the mark is the overall result, God loves perfect, God does not
love imperfect; however, we're not perfect, so, the challenge
to us is to understand and in our hearts come to know, God doesn't
hold that against us at all. God understands we are less
than perfect, because, God became us; every sin ever sinned or
that ever will be sinned is atoned for in the sacrifice
of God's only Son, Jesus Christ. There you have it - a very
large, LARGE, theological concept, in one, ONE, paragraph-
on this, a day one short of twelve! Complete and total
perfection of 3's...3 being complete, Father, Mother and
child, which, when completed times 4 is whole and 12- today
the day one short of that, we, you and I, did it; a massive
theological concept in one paragraph, thank you for sharing.

October run - Tenth of the Tenth?
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Tenth, just doesn't seem like a lot does it?
A tenth of something seems like
a small amount, in fact, we wouldn't consider it,
much, a tenth of a piece of
pie? We'd call that a sliver. But what about a
tenth of an inch to the left
or right, and the bullet misses the heart?
How about Biblically, a tenth of the
people of Sodom repent and the city isn't destroyed?
How about a tenth now?
Suddenly it isn't so small, in fact,
here is the strange aspect to measure,
interpretation and Godly reality,
a tenth is a tenth, we attach whatever
significance of meaning resides with it,
for the truth of the focus lies in
the moment, doesn't it? You cannot
change a former flawed measure that
was a tenth off, and so the tower
leans; nor can you assign a future date to
have a tenth replaced, because the
future never gets here, except as the present.
Matt 6:34(b): "Sufficient unto the day [is] the evil thereof."

Ocober run- What about them nines?
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Heard an expert last evening talking about the languages,
said that only two languages were numbers based languages,
in other words, they used some sort of numbering system within
their language, Hebrew and Greek, the two languages of the Bible.
Interesting tidbit, theologically it certainly adds an interesting
touch to the theology we're going to spend some paragraphs in,
which is eschatology, or, the end things. In both systems of
languages and cultural nuance, three symbolically stood for
complete, and so it's easy to see why, three times three would
be, awesomely complete, wouldn't that make sense? In the actions
of human living a pregnancy through takes nine months - so
the giving of life, is also culturally in the ambiance. Nines-
a ninth, a portion which is divinely appointed. Hmm, sort
of makes a person wonder at these Bible passages:
Lev 23:32 It [shall be] unto you a sabbath of rest,
and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth [day] of
the month at even, from even unto even,
shall ye celebrate your sabbath.
Mat 27:45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness
over all the land unto the ninth hour.
Mat 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried
with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?
that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Act 10:30 And Cornelius said, Four days
ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the
ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold,
a man stood before me in bright clothing,

October run - Eight you say?
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Are we delusional, or, realistic, and, how would we know?
Pause momentarily and consider how difficult it is to
determine what truth is? What do you suppose Jesus would
respond if asked what the truth is? What do you suppose
is so troubling to us about it, you see, right now you are
saying; "I don't have a problem with knowing what the truth
is." And as you are saying that, you know full good and well
that no two people ever see the same thing in the same way,
do they? And so we come to the a very bizarre and yet odd
fact of what we are about, while we can get close to another
person, we never really know them, do we? Little wonder
then that Christ would say:
Mat 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of
you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that
they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my
Father which is in heaven.

October Run - Plus - An Additional Seventh Portion
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Sometimes when it is late at night, and a singular
message movie is on, like this evening, and this
movie, "The Postman," a Kevin Kostner movie,
which while it will rankle some of my "thou
shalt not watch R rated movies" folks- I watch,
because it's after the horror of apocalypse
message is a powerful one. Yes a person has to
look past some pretty shocking realities portrayed
in the movie, but isn't that life, finally, really?
Here is what frightens me during those times,
the distinct possibility that death won't greet me,
and the second coming will not have occurred,
but instead, the fragile and delicate threads which
bind this great nation of America together, will
come unraveled in such a way that leaves us
scattered, shattered, sheltered but without hope.
This is just one paragraph, but bear in mind that
theologically the end of time may happen a little
differently than what folks are commonly
talking about; and the average way you hear it
laid down, don't make it so- and what is most
dangerous of all is pretending that we're ready-
the most frightening fact of all is that we not
only aren't prepared for most disasters, we
have actually deluded ourselves to believe
that we won't survive them- see it's horrible
when loved ones die, when all around you is death,
but what's most horrible of all is when you live,
but you wish, you hadn't- because you could have
been prepared, but you chose to bury your head
in the clouds instead of working the harshness
of the sands. Don't take my word for it, just ask
anyone who lived through 9/11 - who got out
of the towers, ask anyone who got out of the
most insane Hurricane in recent human history-
or anyone who survived the countless horrific
disasters like Mt. St. Helens, or on a global
scale, where the ill preparedness accurately
accused the U.N. of their total neglect of the
need for it, ask anyone who survived India's
horrific Tsunami's- or China's incredible floods
where the body count is still not clear- ask
them- if they'd prepare better today?

October Run - A Seventh Portion
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Did you look at yourself in the mirror this morning?
How closely did you look? Let's say, not all that closely,
why not, because, with few changes you've seen that
same face for your whole life, it changes very little
except with the years. You have come to
depend upon it. God, as a matter of theological
importance, can be depended upon, and here is the
interesting thing, it isn't so much what God does
that can be depended upon, but what God
doesn't do. You and I are alive today because God
chose to allow this world to continue to exist.
You and I are alive today because God made
a deliberate choice for us to exist,
and to continue to exist, and the simplest
of truths is, we have become used to being
able to depend upon God not to do the drastic
reality ending sort of things, haven't we?
Yet here is the subtle theological point of the day, He can,
whenever He chooses to, such is what it means to be, God,
and yet we continue; and my suggestion to you is that this
theological concept become known between us as God's grace.
It isn't what God does -it is, what He graciously doesn't do.
2Ti 1:9 Who hath saved us, and called [us]
with an holy calling, not according to our works,
but according to his own purpose and grace, which

October Run - Sixes
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Does a person under God own anything? Can we, God's creation,
own any part of the created? Now while your shaking your
head at the idea of that even being a theological concept,
stop, for just a second and realize, it most assuredly is. You
see, you aren't just a created being, inbreathed, with the very
life breath of God, you are, according to what is contained
in God's word, the Bible, inheritors, which changes everything.
When the Bible states that all creation moans waiting for the
coming of the Lord, the strain should be felt in our lives, and
within that strain is the momentous truth of family ties.
Rom 8:17
And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs
with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him],
that we may be also glorified together.

October Run - A Fifth
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Something of the imagination of man must be a residual of the
inbuilt from God. We are an image, in some sense, the mirror
which reflects the image, but we are, biological, and that
changes everything, and it is the inherit diffculty of the
simple analogoy. The concept of made in God's image, is
the stated legacy of the Hebrew who sought to explain what
can't be explained, that He who makes something from
nothing, made man, different; and what that meant. His
description might, therefore, be not so much about
what as about the entirity of being a created being? It
is difficult and yet it is also reassuring and odd that
in fact, humankind is different. Our ways are not the
totally natural, the totally predatory, nor the totally
antithetical of any of those, we are, odd, unusual and
different in the kingdom of nature we stand out. This
makes sense, we were created outside it.

makes sense, we were created outside it.
Gen 5:1 This [is] the book of the generations of Adam.
In the day that God created man, in the likeness of
God made he him;

October Run - Day Four
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
What is it about God that leaves you either spellbound, or not?
Because one of the things that Jesus made plain in his ministry
was that you couldn't sit on the fence with God; you either
believed in God and that He sent Jesus, or, you didn't. There
is no halfway measure that will accomplish that belief point-
it's either or. What makes that further interesting is that
so many want to hedge on it, they want to suggest shades of
knowing, partial knowledge, ask questions about what knowing
Him means, and therein is the rub, you either know Him, Jesus,
or you don't, it actually is, just that simple. So Paul got
that into the hearts of his listeners by suggesting that they
not let the simple nature of that saving knowing trip them up.
1Pe 2:7 Unto you therefore which believe [he is] precious:
but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the
builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
1Pe 2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence,
[even to them] which stumble at the word, being disobedient:
whereunto also they were appointed.

October Run - Day Three
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Here in day three we need to get more than personal, we need
to get intimate; deep, longing, desiring; the aspects of our
human nature that we equate to obsession, aren't they? The
question is a haunting one, is God, obsessed with His creation?
Mind you in modern thinking, which is why this theological shot
is so much fun, as the rocket streaks past your bow, you hear
the faint calls of splashes in the distance, whence it is headed
for the deep. Mind you, today we all too often ask if we are
obsessed with God, and that's a good theological question to put
forth, but my suggestion to you is, to smile, and laugh, and even
howl with delight, because the one who made you, created you, and
has you reading this is indeed obsessively in love with you.
Deu 10:15 Only the LORD had a delight
in thy fathers to love them,
and he chose their seed after
them, [even] you above all people,
as [it is] this day.

October Run - The Second
The October challenge, find amazing parts of theology and
then each day bring one paragraph to you the reader about that.
Today we draw from a very deep well indeed, C.S. Lewis, a man
of mystery, a man who fell in love with a married woman, who
later divorced her unconcerned husband, and who C.S. felt was
the completion to his soul. They eventually married, although
they weren't able to spend much time together, is it possible
that in the years they hesitated to leave their comfortable
lives, they were cheating the joy they felt when they were
finally able to become one soul? One soul- the Hebrew calls
the soul the "Nephish" and they say that, and even Christian's,
read a Bible which proclaims that man is a soul which has
the breath of God in it. This breath of God separates and
makes man distinct. So each person is indeed unique and
a creation. Creation an ongoing act of creator God, what
is He creating in your life today?
Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man [of]
the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living soul.
