What It's All About

Day 22!! Just saying that is encouraging.

Took another quiz last night; felt OK. We correct the quizzes in class right after the devotional.

The devotionals remind me daily why I am there. We're going through Matthew 5-7, and the discussions have gotten longer and longer. What once took 45 minutes is now taking 90 minutes. The discussion on divorce still bothers me and I must follow up on it. I can read the Greek words and need to harmonize my beliefs with the exegesis of the text. Do I accept our prof's exegesis? Not ready to. But no one has the freedom to just pick what one wants the text to say to conform to personal beliefs. The authority is in the text and we are compelled to understand it - and then live it.

And that's what it's all about, isn't it?





Still no mid-term resutls.
