    The limits of human endurance

    I will tell my endurance story; but it pales into insignificance compared to the 'Worlds Hardest Geezer. His story is incredible, but I think he could have done more, if Africa was a few hundred miles longer. Russ Cook, also known as the "Hardest Geezer," averaged over 28 miles (45 km) per day...

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    Churches Together in our town pray together, pray for each other and pray for the needs of our town. Together we have opened food banks, homes for the homeless, debt help and more. The more we do together for our community, the more we feel as 'One'. I also belong to an interfaith group, I...

    Thoughts about Trinity beliefs

    Jesus prayed that we should be one with each other, in exactly the same way that Jesus is One with the Father. Could the greatest commandments possibly describe how Christ is one with the Father? The Father loves Jesus as he loves himself. Jesus loves the Father as he loves himself. Could...

    What do you personally think that Jesus taught and why does it matter now?

    I believe we serve God, Jesus, in the way we serve the poor and oppressed. Matthew 25; 31 ‘When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. 32All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from...

    Can people be "smarter" than their ancestors, or at least more advanced than their predecessors?

    Swords and medicine have advanced at about the same rate. If we were really smart, we would have stopped the advancement of sword technology.

    Peace

    I have been a Street Pastor since 2008. When we go out, we patrol the streets of our town until three or four in the morning. Before we start our shifts, we ask God to place in our path the people he needs us to see. When we meet challenging situations, we ask God to help us with the words and...

    When you've lost your Faith

    Jesus loves us as he loves himself, he died for us despite all our failings and differences. Thank you Lord. Passing that love on is the real challenge, as in Matthew 25,34 34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the...

    Some thoughts to challenge the mind to think. Did the greatest commandments have a greatest meaning for God, before the creation of the universe and life began? Here is a childlike and yet profound way to challenge the power of the greatest commandments; when looking for one single purpose...

    Do Christians believe that the Son is the Father?

    We need to know how Jesus is one with the Father, because Jesus prayed that we should be one in exactly the same way. In theory, it should be easy for us mere mortals to understand, we shouldn't need a masters degree in theology. Could the greatest commandments describe how they are one? God...

    Biblical meaning of "Christ"

    Luke 4:18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free. The good news the poor want to hear first is, I need some food. Then...
