Web Nicks and Clicks

MCF shows off his powers over the obscure with his linking
to everyone
. I take up the challenge and link to Curt.

Spring-boarding off of Curt's site, The California Hammonds
shows the life, love and longing of a man, husband and father.

Continuing my blog-hopping quest I came upon this guy's site
through Truth Laid Bear. He's a graphic designer (like me) but lives in Oklahoma
City (not like me). He came up with a whole mess of blogisms.

Which eventually led me to these two cool sites, gizmodo and
engadget.

XII Effective Belief (Romans 5)

After using case-law to establish precedence in defense of
God's righteousness when He declares a sinner justified, Paul now makes the
link to the present discussion. We have a man who is in a position of total
depravity in that specific sense which we have previously established. The man
is ruined before God and although God enjoys good works the idea that a person
can use works to make their state righteous before God is completely useless.
This man's solution was illustrated in case-law but how is faith a conduit to
righteousness in actuality? How can faith make the believer  secure?

An oft-used and pale illustration to direct our thinking: A
man is at home, bankrupt and up to his eyebrow in debt. Call him Rey. Any
similarities to my own present financial condition are purely coincidental.
