I finished reading the "Confessions of Saint Augustine". It was totally mind-stretching and pure genius!! I also enjoyed reading his"Treatise on The Predestination of The Saints". I'm currently immersed in his "City of God". I can clearly see after reading him that Luther and Calvin basically stood on his shoulders. Calvin's "Institutes" are full of references to Augustine. Also, Calvin's "The Eternal Predestination of God", does likewise. His writngs have me hooked! I  can't get enough!!

I've also been thoroughly blessed reading through portions of Romans, Gospel of John, and Psalm 119 on a daily basis. I've been reading them in the old Louis Segond (1910) french translation. I love this translation of the Bible. I've been reading it off and on for almost 10 years. J'aime La parole de Dieu.

Sola Scriptura!!

I'm thoroughly enjoying my reading of Augustine's "Confessions". It is the masterpiece everyone says it is! Augustine really stretches the mind, and he was a master scholar. My plan is to finish the "Confessions" this week and then begin "The City of God". This book will take a while since it's close to 1000 pages. (At least in the translation I'm using). My plan is to devote the rest of this year, and all of 2012 to his writings. He left behind a massive amount. I'll be studying Augustine in addition to doing a detailed study of the New Testament and Psalms in french. I'm only putting this out there, because of the kinds of friends I have. We like to know what the other is reading.

J'aime ta parole mon Dieu! Je vais apprendre ta parole!! Tu es saint mon Roi,mon Berger, et mon Salut. Je te cherche de tout mon coeur. 

I've become fascinated by the life and writings of Saint Augustine. I've been immersing in his "Confessions" for the past few weeks, and have purchased a number of his books, including "The City of God". He was true genius and one of the greatest figures in the history of the western world. He was a great scholar and I'm looking forward to learning at his feet.  

I have  put up an old childhood photo of myself for my profile picture. 

Je vais servir Dieu! O mon Dieu, ouvre mes yeux pour que je contemple les merveilles de Ta parole!!
