Here's the link: <a href="http://solachurch.org/sola-media/teacher/2" rel="nofollow">Sola Church Media</a>.<br />It's titled "Follow Me, Part 9" as its part of a larger series on the book of Mark. I posted my manuscript notes so you can read or listen, though they are slightly different. Perhaps I'll get through the other 9 sometime on my blog, as I've spent some time looking into them.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16934395011113767914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13589532.post-16983041537193463842010-08-10T18:24:38.417-07:002010-08-10T18:24:38.417-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01813240290829967874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13589532.post-20506156399629647552009-12-14T08:43:09.015-08:002009-12-14T08:43:09.015-08:00zzi, if it makes you feel any better, read this:

Ten of the most horrible stories and Jonah doesn't even make it close.<br /><br />GOD: Hey Jonah!<br />Jonah: ACK!<br />GOD: Go east and tell the citizens of Nineveh that I will destroy them.<br />Jonah: WTF dude. Get out of my head! *goes west, gets on a boat*<br />GOD: Seriously, Jonah. Go east and tell them or I will kill you and everyone on this boat.<br />Everyone on the boat: WHOA! Umm... Jonah?<br />Jonah: *dives overboard, saving everyone on the boat from God's wrath. Gets swallowed by a fish and then spat out onto land three days later.*<br /><br />Of note: Jonah can hold is breath for a long time.<br /><br />Jonah: *Begrudgingly, but with fervor, preaches God's message in Nineveh*<br />Citizens of Nineveh: WHOA! *wail in terror*<br />GOD: *does nothing*<br />GOD: *grows a gourd overnight then kills it*<br />GOD: Hahahah, Jonah. They are surely trembling now that I have bottled out of killing them all, and you weren't omniscient enough to know about it. HAHAHAH!<br /><br />Moral of the story: God will screw with you.Kaz Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272310026172140396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13589532.post-62654188680836675212009-12-12T23:17:56.045-08:002009-12-12T23:17:56.045-08:00Please re-read the first bullet point in the discl...Please re-read the first bullet point in the disclaimers, zzi.Burt Likkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060980744675990412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13589532.post-84169673118695863432009-12-12T22:45:36.998-08:002009-12-12T22:45:36.998-08:00Don't forget to stay tune for next week's ...Don't forget to stay tune for next week's <i>"Worst Koran Stories"</i>zzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09933063994246150989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13589532.post-42297004242386171482009-12-12T15:43:05.038-08:002009-12-12T15:43:05.038-08:00In regard to 4.

While the Bible does prohibit sex between men (homosexuality), it can nevertheless be shown that the prohibition does not apply today when the sexual activity causes no harm. Also the prohibition does not apply today because it applied only to the ancient Israelite and Roman cultures. The Bible criticizes, but does not prohibit, sex between women. Full reasons for these conclusions are given on the Gay and Christian website (www.gaysandslaves.com).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13589532.post-86341212763932459352009-12-12T11:15:10.127-08:002009-12-12T11:15:10.127-08:00Hey TL,

You can find it here http://tiny.cc/RakSh<br /><br />Another post which gives the rational for some of the OT laws is http://tiny.cc/X0WT4 <br /><br />The point in both cases is you can't project our perspective backward into Bible times and vice versa but you can read them for yourself.<br /><br />They are a bit long to copy and paste (though I think you me beat on the length issue :)EnnisPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02962612717129581443noreply@blogger.com
