Death Narrative

I have listened to people now more than ever raising funds to save people from death. The dying will admit that these may not save me, but hopefully we will save someone else. There is a cure! But nobody wants to talk about it. People want to talk about stoping death, it is like stopping a runny nose when you have a cold. You need to defeat the cold! Death is our enemy, but it's root cause is sin.

I have the cure for death. I have the cup of eternal life. I have the water that give life everlasting. I have the one who has conquered death. Give me a death narrative, and I will give you the power to over come. I will give you the strength to survive. It is Jesus Christ our Lord.

I admit that I have not faced the death of a loved one like other people. I do not have the words to solve your struggles with lose or pain. I do have a Hope, a Faith, a Cure, a Cup, a Font, a Table, and a Savior. I have long stared in the face of death welcoming it to do its worst, because I know that it will not hold me. It did not hold my savior.

Face death with a powerful narrative. Death was born in a garden. Death was given life when a woman and a man ate from something they were commanded not to eat from. Death grew powerful as the earth swallowed up the blood of their son. Death grew even stronger as it broke down the body formed in perfection. Death was fed by the wickedness of the hearts of men. Death was given power as the creation was consumed by water. Death no reigned in the lives of men. But a man came to fight death. This man walked into the arms of death without fear. This man gave up his own life, not allowing death to take it from him. He brought his body and soul back together conquering death in his resurrection. He has taken the power from death. He has forgiven people of their sins. Thank you.

Set Theory on the Trinity

Many Theologians are not Mathematicians. But Theologies are really into Science. For some reason there is a greater cross over between Theology and Science than any other fields unless you Separate Math and Physic into different fields. But Set Theory at its basic is the idea of taking sets of numbers or things and showing relationships. We see this in Matrices or Venn-Diagrams. Now Theologians generally speaking would use a Venn-Diagram to describe the Trinity. A Theologian would usually talk about three circles one being the Father and another being the Holy Spirit and the Other being the Son. Thus, where these circles connect that is then called God. But this means that there is part of the Son which is not God. Part of the Holy Spirit which is not God. And part of the Father which is not God. This is not true. Rather you take a list of Sets. Take Set God which contains all the attributes of God. Then you take a Set called Holy Spirit it would contain all the attributes of God and y...

The Death of the Holy Innocents

Many people die for what they believe in. Some die for righteous people. But these chosen few die on behalf of the one who will save us all. These children have all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God. But these children die on account of the Christ Child. Many people have been martyred because they confessed the faith. These children did not stand or even get a chance to stand. They were cut down because they were seen as the threat to King Herod. Rachael mourns for her children. Rachael died giving life to Benjamin near Bethlehem. Rachael now weeps as all the children of this town are slaughtered. But just as Rachael died giving birth to life. These children die to protect the Christ Child who left the town and will die to give all of us life. St Peter once said that he would not allow Christ to go to the cross. St Peter drew his sword in the garden to die for Christ. But only these Children truly give their life for Jesus Christ to live. Their sacrifice should b...

Biblical Marriage

Marriage is defined in Genesis as a man clinging to his wife and the two becoming one flesh. This definition is standardized even in the New Testament by both Jesus and St Paul. Therefore, we have generally said Marriage is defined as one Man and one Woman being joined together in a life long union. Most people think that this Marriage union is created through a man dressed in black and woman dressed in white walking down an aisle to be joined together before some kind of altar. But this is only a ceremony of marriage. The Bride and bridegroom are actually joined together through what is known as consummation, or proper sexual relations.  Thus, St Paul can even talk in reference to a marriage bed. This concept may be overlooked by a culture that no longer views the bed as the place where a majority of sexual activity takes place. But he states this because the marriage bed is the location in which a man and woman are joined together. Just as it was Rachael or Leah's tent in which t...
