		<description>There was a time in my life when I was sold on this near-new, concocted theory, but it is full of holes, no matter which evolution of it you try to embrace:

&lt;a href=&#039;http://catholicrevelation.com/2009/10/dispensationalism/&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;The False Doctrine of Dispensationalism&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>Great post. It reminds me of what C.S. Lewis said in Mere Christianity on the same subject:

“Good and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to victories you never dreamed of. An apparently trivial indulgence in lust or anger today is the loss of a ridge or railway line or bridgehead from which the enemy may launch an attack otherwise impossible.”</description>

		<description>Now I am subscribed to your blog!!!!  Are ya happy?  

It was a good sermon today.  Once it gets posted I have at least one person I am going to share it with.  The idea of saying your a victim so your stuck with the way things are will probably really talk to some people.</description>

		<description>Mike, you stated that &quot;God&#039;s holiness is a call to war against evil.&quot; Jesus as a man faced Satan&#039;s evil temptations on earth. We face evil temptations too. I think of evil as a test and tempering of our hearts making us worthy to be in His holy presence. Job endured; therefore, with Jesus&#039; help we can too.</description>

		<description>Thank you for your kind words for my friend Bob.  I too served with Bob, went on a road trip with him and Paulette, and worked with him on various projects here and in Mexico.  Bob had a heart of service and a love of God.  I have been blessed through our friendship, and I find peace knowing that he is with him now.</description>
