  greetings, word lovers:.

  in my job, i work with words and wrangle them into shape, well, in a manner of speaking.

  one word might be mistaken for another, a word with either a similar or identical sound.

  Ahhh, CoCo, I feel you.

  His name was Sam.

  I say was because even though he still lives, he's not MY Sam anymore.

  Am I making sense?

  uc berkeley administrators canceled a scheduled speech by right-wing pundit ann coulter, saying they can’t protect participants from rioting if it goes ahead.

  now i am no ann coulter fan (although the sjw police on here will accuse me of being a fan shortly after posting this), but i am a fan of free speech!

  Mercy, Simon!

  I do agree with your assessment of the Democrats' pandering to minorities.

  Even during the height of Jim Crow, we were, for the most part, self-reliant and resourceful.

  Now, we've become fat and lazy and sorry, with the resultant deterioration of our communities.

  What does this say about God?

  That He is exacting and does not exempt anyone, including Himself, from His standards.

  Love.

  Hi, Doug.

  I believe the Ransom was paid by God - in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth - to Himself.

  That takes care of the What and the Who.

  When? 33 CE, 1984 years ago ...

  Where? Outside the city of Jerusalem ...

  How? By dying a painful unjustified death ...

  Now comes the meat of the matter:

  WHY?

  To appease the Father? I believe not.

  As a substitute for us? I think not.

  To cancel our debt to sin? This, I believe, is the answer.

  But, since the debt has been paid, why haven't we been released?

  All in due time.

  Blessings
