And though I apparently do not understand even "basic internet integrity" (:-)) it would seem that you are side-stepping grappling with the truths of Psalm 18.<br /><br />BTW-Have long loved Martin Luther, yet he is, after all, as are all, simply men, and flawed. His statement, "My conscience is captive to the Word of God... to go against conscience is neither right nor safe," a personal favorite.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33057643.post-73897128173694751202010-09-15T10:07:07.108-05:002010-09-15T10:07:07.108-05:00Thanks for the follow-up.

I asked my husband how to post a comment on your blog, and he said, "You don't have a URL or google account...just post as anonymous."<br /><br />And, since he is not at home to help me jump through the hoops that you demand...you will have to ask your father who I am. Just blogged to his site this morning, and mentioned reading yours.

Or of God?<br /><br />'Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him" -Psalm 34:8<br /><br />"A cold, sluggish heart" Dane? Is it not rather, a cold sluggish heart, that does not run to it's Father, the Only One Who can help? Or one who knows, "in Him" is our only hope? That the way through...is not found in men, nor in consolations of sin...(shall I sin more that grace may abound? God forbid!)...but in Christ alone?<br /><br />"This God—his way is perfect; <br /> <br />the word of the Lord proves true;<br /> <br />he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.<br /> <br />31 For who is God, but the Lord?<br /> <br />And who is a rock, except our God?—<br /> <br />32 the God who equipped me with strength<br /> <br />and made my way blameless.<br /> <br />33 He made my feet like the feet of a deer<br /> <br />and set me secure on the heights.<br />Psalms 18:30-33 (ESV)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
