it would be hard to say. i was 5 or so when i first went down the aisle. then in the 6th grade it was with my mom. i don't believe it was actually either. i just know that i am saved. i was raised in church and sometime in my late teens and early twenties i got serious. but to sum it up i can't remember a time when i didn't believe in Jesus

my sin is great and Christ alone saves. i can do nothing without Him

While all our hearts and all our songs Join to admire the feast,Each of us cry, with thankful tongues, “Lord, why was I a guest? “Why was I made to hear Thy voice, And enter while there’s room, When thousands make a wretched choice, And rather starve than come?” ’Twas the same love that spread the feast That sweetly drew us in; Else we had still refused to taste, And perished in our sin.

widows orphans, the sick, those in prison, the poor and hungry. these are what i am feeling a strong desire for, as matthew and james both talk of these things. i want to know what it truly means to do what Jesus said to do. i long to see our reformed churches do these things. i know we are saved by faith alone but we say we don't have to do these things like it is a cop out. so right now i am trying to get passionate about these things.

Pity the nations, O our God! Constrain the earth to come; Send Thy victorious Word abroad, And bring the strangers home. We long to see Thy churches full, That all the chosen race May with one voice, and heart and soul, Sing Thy redeeming grace. also music and photography!!!

Top 10 Biblical Ways to Acquire a Wife

10. Find a prostitute and marry her. (Hosea 1:1-3)

9. Purchase a piece of property, and get a woman as part of the deal. (Ruth

4:5-10)

8. Find an attractive prisoner of war, bring her home, shave her head, trim

her nails, and give her new clothes. Then she’s yours. (Deuteronomy 21:11-13)

7. Go to a party and hide. When the women come out to dance, grab one

and carry her off to be your wife. (Judges 21:19-25)

6. Cut 200 foreskins off of your future father-in-law’s enemies and get his

daughter for a wife. (I Samuel 18:27)

5. Become the emperor of a huge nation and hold a beauty contest. (Esther 2:3-4)

4. Find a man with seven daughters, and impress him by watering his

flock. (Exodus 2:16-21)

3. When you see someone you like, go home and tell your parents, “I have

seen a woman; now get her for me.” If your parents question your decision,

simply say, “Get her for me. She’s the one for me.” (Judges 14:1-3)

2. Agree to work seven years in exchange for a woman’s hand in marriage.

Get tricked into marrying the wrong woman. Then work another seven years

for the woman you wanted to marry in the first place. That’s right. Fourteen

years of toil for a woman. (Genesis 29:15-30)

1. Have God create a wife for you while you sleep. Note: this will cost you

a rib. (Genesis 2:19-24)

"The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. He asketh me if i want to lie down in green pastures so as to not violate my freewill by making me." - Myself (after hearing Chuck Swindoll on the radio)

“On land, at sea, at home, abroad, I smoke my pipe and worship God.” by J.S. Bach

"Of all the contrivances for cheating the laboring classes of mankind, none has been more effective than that which deludes them with paper money."- Daniel Webster

"If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy" - James Madison

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have" - Thomas Jefferson

"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty." Thomas Jefferson

"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both" - Benjamin Franklin

"Contrary to popular impression, the Puritan was no ascetic. If he continually warned against the vanity of the creatures as misused by fallen man, he never praised hair shirts or dry crust. He liked good food, good drink and homely comforts; and while he laughed at mosquitoes, he found it a real hardship to drink water when the beer ran out." - Edmond Morgan: The Puritan Family, as found in the preface of Alister McGrath's "A life of John Calvin"

You must believe in free will; there is no choice. - Isaac Bashevis Singer

"Christ Jesus Lay in Death's Strong Bands" 
 by Martin Luther

1. Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands, 
For our offenses given; 
 But now at God's right hand He stands 
And brings us life from heaven; 
Therefore let us joyful be 
And sing to God right thankfully 
Loud songs of hallelujah! 
Hallelujah!

2. No son of man could conquer Death, 
Such mischief sin had wrought us, For innocence dwelt not on earth, 
And therefore Death had brought us 
 Into thraldom from of old 
And ever grew more strong and bold 
And kept us in his bondage. Hallelujah!

3. But Jesus Christ, God's only Son, 
To our low state descended, 
 The cause of Death He has undone, 
His power forever ended, 
Ruined all his right and claim 
And left him nothing but the name,-- 
 His sting is lost forever. 
Hallelujah!

4. It was a strange and dreadful strife 
When Life and Death contended; The victory remained with Life, 
The reign of Death was ended; 
Holy Scripture plainly saith 
That Death is swallowed up by Death, 
 His sting is lost forever. 
Hallelujah!

5. Here the true Paschal Lamb we see, 
Whom God so freely gave us; 
 He died on the accursed tree-- 
So strong His love!—to save us. 
See, His blood doth mark our door; 
Faith points to it, Death passes o'er, 
 And Satan cannot harm us. 
Hallelujah!

6. So let us keep the festival 
Whereto the Lord invites us; 
 Christ is himself the Joy of all, 
The Sun that warms and lights us. 
 By His grace He doth impart 
Eternal sunshine to the heart; 
 The night of sin is ended. 
Hallelujah!

7. Then let us feast this Easter Day 
On Christ, the Bread of heaven; 
 The Word of Grace hath purged away 
The old and evil leaven. 
Christ alone our souls will feed, 
He is our meat and drink indeed; 
Faith lives upon no other. 
Hallelujah!

It's Too Late By Alice Cooper

I never kicked a dog, a child, or my wife. I never looked at pornography. I swear it on my holy saint mother's life but somehow she's down here with me. I never stole a thing, a toy or a kiss, my conscience is as clean as can be, and when I was a teen all the sex that i missed, was an abstinence blessing to me. The road to hell is littered with nice guys with good intentions but once you're there you're there. It's much too late. I can cry and scream It's just not fair to leave me here like you don't care. There must be some mistake up there in heaven. Now it's much too late. My time has passed away. All my plans and dreams have ended. Now It's much too late to try and plead my case and I don't know the God i've offended. It's too late. It's much too late.

Educate yourself, Live humbly, Live within your means, Get out of debt, Invest in a few hard assets, Look for opportunities to educate others with calm rational words of persuasion...tell them about the founders of this country, tell them about the constitution, tell them about the failed economic policies of both mainstream democrats and republicans. Most importantly, keep the ideas and values alive in yourself. Those of you who say "Ron Paul save us"....if you heard his words, and you understand them, then he already did. As you can see I love Ron Paul!!!

Things i don't like:

1) Theonomy

2) Federal Vision Theology

3) I'm sure there is more but that will have to do.
