HOW RUMORS RUIN LIVES AND HELPING SOMEONE CREATES A FRIEND…

Posted on by

Few characters in the New Testament have been so sorely miscast as Mary Magdalene, whose reputation as a fallen woman originated not in the Bible, but in a sixth-century sermon by Pope Gregory the Great.


Not only is Mary Magdalene misidentified as the repentant prostitute of legend, meditating and levitating in a cave, but she was not necessarily even a notable sinner: Being possessed by “seven demons” that were exorcised by Jesus, she was arguably more victim than sinner. And the idea, popularized by The Da Vinci Code, that Mary was Jesus’ wife and bore his child, while not totally disprovable, is the longest of long shots.

Mark 16:1 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. 

Mark 15:47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother Joseph saw where Jesus’ body was laid.

HEALTH CARE REFORM OR NOT?

Posted on by

There was this experienced mountain climber who was nearing the top of a steep mountain.  He slipped and fell about 10 feet to a small ledge.  Nothing was broken, but his body was bruised.

All his equipment and food had fallen to the bottom of the mountain.  He had no way up or down.  As he considered his problem he looked to the other part of the mountain that he could jump to and climb down safely.

PROBLEM: He would have to jump over 7 feet to reach it.  He wasn’t sure he could do it.  If he did nothing he would starve or freeze to death in a few days; no hope.

If he could by faith jump that 7 feet and make it he would live.  He could miss and be injured or may die.

IF IN DOUBT HE DOES NOTHING, HE DIES.

IF BY FAITH HE JUMPS AND MAKES IT HE LIVES.

IF HE MISSES HE STILL MAY LIVE BUT BE SEVERELY INJURED.

How many times have we taken a leap of faith, made it and are glad we did? Going to college, changing jobs, buying a car, house, getting married, etc?

When we do nothing things become worse because conditions change daily, opportunities appear and disappear.

ISN’T THE SAME TRUE ABOUT HEALTH CARE REFORM?  IF WE DO NOTHING 8,000 people die weekly because they have no health care.  Treatments (spiritual, mental and physical), rehab, proper medicine, etc. Everyday it becomes worse.  The longer we wait the less we can do, until it is too late to do anything.  We go into a deep depression and become a weak 3rd work country.


Will you take that leap of faith, or do nothing?  It is too late to start over.
Look at how long they’ve been working on it.  Every call counts.  Even the Nuns are voting for it.
