Reminds me of Col1:15-18 15He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16For byhim all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things were created through him and for him. 17And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. (ESV)
Jeremy, What a neat post - Calvinists, non-Calvinists, and probably even Arminians could agree with it. A simple, pithy post is profitably peaceful. (Now I need to wipe the spit off my screen).
Jeremy, Here is a perfect example of the perplexity of christian diversity: you see that beautiful statement as Calvinistic (and all that goes along with TULIP), I don't. What a fellowship!

Jeremy,
Your post today illustrates the value of pith:
Sometimes less is MORE! You have said much in just a few words. God bless you, brother!
Pith? Pith is good. Good, Pith, good! My kingdom for more Pith!

A great and pithy post! (If you read that out loud, pleathe be very careful.)
john rush: You are a riot! (Uh...do you have a kingdom?)
John (Babri),
I almost referenced those verses. but decided against it because I knew my readers were smart enough to connect the dots!
LOL I hope I wasn't insulting the intelligence of you readers! Its just one of my favorite passages.
john: Are you suggesting that we actually have intellegence?
Jeremy: Actually, the more I read your post, the more awed I am.
So could we call Jeremy the Dark Lord of the Pith?
Okay...I'm going to go beat myself up for making lame jokes.

Mike,
This post is actually the most Calvinistic I have posted.

Come back, Jeremy. Come back! Where are you?
