When Jesus had "turned his face to Jerusalem", he was waling into the jaws of a trap that he perceived from the first. His commitment was to the job before him, and that job would cost his life. From the perspective of such commitment, how must God feel when we offer lukewarm commitment?

Poison
The attention of the world has been focused upon Orlando this week as we try to come to terms with the worst mass shooting in American history. The young man's offer of allegiance to some radical groups from the middle east has also focused us on what we are pleased to call "radical Islam", even though it now appears that the groups Omar Mateen was speaking of are hostile one to the other. It was as if, during World War II, someone had proclaimed his loyalty to both the Axis and the Allies. We are too quick to assume that we know who our enemy is, and much too quick to get self-righteous about it. It is the poison we feed ourselves.

Sola Scriptura
What are the differences between the concepts of faith, tradition and religion? What are their shared commonalities? Why do we do thing things we do?

Voices
In our arrogance, I believe we would characterize the experience of Biblical prophets as signs of mental illness, rather than revelation. Question is: do you hear voices? What voices? What do they tell you?
