Great idea! It is limiting as a pastor’s wife that my husband teaches the SS class each week. As I look for places to grow, study and share my faith, I will be interested in participating in this class and see how it progresses!
To Quote:’Wealth and power are the last refuge of a coward.”
Is the above statement a valid synopsis of the process of moral decay indicated in the Bible? Or, will moral temperance prevail over immoral indulgence so that the Word may be read and heeded by a remnant of sentient beings in possession of a valid copy to justify a sustainable existence that is rewarded by happiness and peace which they helped maintain?
I remember how excited I was when I first got into a car, but it took years before I learned to drive, The first time behind the wheel was a panic. With the owner on the passenger side, he started the engine and gave me instructions. Three pedals on the floor; accelerator, brake, and clutch; transmission lever to select a gear ratio; and a wheel to steer it by. Ok, I thought, so I pushed down the clutch, put it in gear, stomped on the accelerator, let let out the clutch, and froze to the wheel as the car leaped forward toward another parked car. The owner had sufficient presence of mind to reach over with his foot (I don;t remember which one) and stomp on the brake pedal to avoid a collision. The point of this short experience is that mere excitement is never sufficient to complete anything one is doing.
