It's no wonder so many don't like the Millennial view of the Kingdom. Man doesn't want to answer to a literal King holding literal subjects accountable.

The Bible doesn't equip us with lists so you can find your decision decided for you, and then act out the list - that leads straight to legalism. Bringing external behavior into conformity with a list in the hopes that your actions will please God is NOT Christianity morality... Rather, the Bible equips us for every good work, by changing you inside, so that you assess things God's way. [Dr. John Piper, praphsd]

Used to be when being a "fundamentalist" meant you stood for orthodox doctrine; now, unfortunately, the term "fundamentalist" means you have a list of do's and don'ts. We should never define ourselves by negation. (Last sentence paraphrased)

So, doing Kingdom work, taking one of my many daily walks around the 'burbs of downtown Marshall Islands, comparing it to the United States, it struck me: "For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Mt 16:26, KJV)

I was taking a walk, enjoying God's creation, and there was a little kid, in the dark, sitting on the sidewalk singing. The song he was singing (in Marshalleese:) I Need Thee Every Hour. awesome to be able to know that God indeed is needed every hour.

I'm half way around the world, typing on my iPad, sweating, and wondering why it's so hot. Then I realized why: I'm located 7' North - that's right - basically near the Equator!!!! makes Florida seem downright frigid.

well since my Verizon contract is no more, FB is my only connection to the outside world, and Skype. I'm in the land of pineapple, taking a nap for a few hours and then off to the land of Micronesia. Had my last fast food for a spell, and even chewed the fat for a bit.
