J'aime La Parole de Dieu! Elle est si bonne! Elle est ma nourriture. O mon Dieu et mon Seigneur, Tu es bon et bienfaisant; Enseigne-moi tes statuts! Tes commandements me rendent plus sage que mes ennemis, car je les ai toujours avec moi. . Par Tes ordonnances je deviens intelligent. Je retiens mon pied loin de tout mauvais chemin, afin de garder Ta parole. Aide-moi, Mon Dieu et Mon Rocher et Mon Berger!! Amen.

Since the last time I blogged, I've spent alot of time reading John Calvin. I love his God exalting writings!! What a deep and thorough knowledge of the Scriptures he had! You don't have to agree with his doctrine of predestination to benefit from reading him. (even Jabobus Arminius thought that he should be read). I re-purchased all of his commentaries.(I had given away a set to my pastor, but decided I couldn't do without a set of my own). My aim is to devote all of 2010 to his "Institutes of the Christian Religion", his commentaries, and a couple of treatises that he wrote dealing with God's providence, and the bondage of man's will. He will be my Bible and theology professor over the next year. His writings are not for the faint of heart. In Calvin's theology God is firmly seated on His throne. He is an in-charge God. This view flys in the face of so much of the man- centered theology thats preached on the air waves. 

I'm looking forward to the holidays to simply get some time off. My work has been a bit challenging of late.

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.
