| I need to re-read John Calvin. He is much too important to ignore or to keep on the shelf unread. A group from my church is presently meeting, every Thursday morning, to read and discuss the section on prayer from Calvin's Institutes. My church is a huge blessing to me. I love the expository preaching I receive each week. Soli Deo gloria!! | | |
| Mon Berger et Mon Dieu, Ta tendresse est immense: efface mes torts. Lave-moi de mes fautes, Mon Dieu, et purifie-moi. Oui, je reconnais mes torts. Mon coeur a soif de Toi, mon corps a besoin de toi. Ton amour vaut mieux que la vie et ma bouche chantera Ta louange. Toute ma vie, je Te dirai merci. Ma bouche pleine de joie chantera Ta louange. Je veux faire ce que Tu veux, ne m'abandonne jamais, je Te prie. J'aime Ta parole, Mon Dieu, Tes ordres font toute ma joie, ce sont eux qui me conseillent. Je suis Ton serviteur, et je Te cherche. Dieu saint, entends mon cri et ne me cache pas ton visage quand je suis dans le malheur. J'ai besoin de toi. Aide-moi, ma force. Soli Deo gloria! Aussi, bonjour Fabrice B, mon cher. Cherchez Le Seigneur et son aide puissante. Salut. Terry | | |
| Since the last time I wrote, I've been basically living in the Gospels, and Romans. I read a portion of L'Evangile selon Jean ( John's gospel) everyday. My Pastor plans to teach through this gospel verse by verse, in the fall. I'm very much looking forward to this. I've been recently using the Segond(NEG). I enjoy this french translation. The different french versions are beginning to pile up in my apartment. If someone out there in Xanga land is desperate for copy, feel free to message me. I've also been listening to and reading a lot of Shakespeare. I've become somewhat of a fanatic. I can clearly see why he's considered the greatest writer in all of English literature! His writing is breath-taking in it's beauty!! He is certainly without peer, in my judgement. I also must acknowledge, however, that many of his plays can be very violent. I was actually surprised by how much violence there was. I have been listening to unabridged audio recordings( or performances), and following along with the printed text. It is very, very, enjoyable to go through a Shakespeare play in this manner! So far I've gone through the complete text of Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Henry V, Henry VI, Richard III, and a number of his sonnets. I've been considering playing tournament chess,again. The U.S. Chess Federation wants me to renew my membership. They sent me a mailing, offering to let me join at a discounted rate. I've been really enjoying my classical music collection!! Classical music, and Shakespeare make for a nice combination. Salut, Mes Amis. Le Seigneur est Grand et Glorieux!! IL est mon Berger!! Soli Deo gloria. Sola Scriptura. | | |
| This is a great sermon by Jonathan Edwards. It is good to the last drop. | | |
| I ordered and received "The Works of Jonathan Edwards", this past week. This man was a theological giant!! As I was thumbing through the volumes I was shaking my head in sheer amazement at the quality and depth. His language is not as mentally taxing as John Owen's. There is the friendly debate concerning which theologian was the greater. In my view, both are unsurpassed!! They are the two greatest english-speaking theologians who ever lived. They were two of God's greatest gifts to the church! I'm enjoying myself as I presently work through the Pauline epistles. This time, I'm using a french translation that was done by Louis Segond, and published in 1910. This is probably the most widely used translation in the french-speaking world. I also have a portion of it on audio. I've been listening to Romans and following along with the printed text. This has been quite enriching, eventhough the reader does so with a canadian accent. (No disrespect intended). I've had a few health issues, but on the whole am feeling fine. My mind tends to get very active at night and so I've had some trouble sleeping. I think part of it is listening to too much news on the radio. (I don't own a television). I listen to the BBC, National Public radio, and certain talk radio programs. I'm very thankful to be employed with so many losing their jobs. Let's keep them in our prayers! | | |
