POPSToday's word of the day: Hendiadys A "hendiadys" (fr. Gk. "one through two") is a literary figure in which a pair of concepts in a subordinate relationship are presented as conjoined. Examples: "nice and warm" instead of "nicely warm"; "sound and fury" instead of "furious sound"; "pain and toil" intead of "painful toil"; and so forth. First spotted in Robert Alter's footnote to Genesis 5.29.

POPSWhen I Speak From Todd Wagner via Tim Stevens, www.leadingsmart.com. This is a great quote that reminds us of what our goal really is in speaking/preaching. This actually changes my perspective a little bit about entertaining in preaching. We do want to truly entertain in preaching. We want to hold people's attention. However, different people do that different ways. I have been under humorous preachers, but they didn't entertain, they amused. I have been under other preachers who held someone's attention without humor. Andy Stanley preached this last week about how they want people to be challenged each week. Challenges will hold peoples attention. The Bible is challenging. Use it and see people be entertained.

POPSRosenberg on Glenn Beck ROSENBERG: I’m not saying that we are definitely going to see the total fulfillment of the Ezekiel 38 and 39 prophecy in our lifetime. GLENN: But you are not not saying it, either. ROSENBERG: You couldn’t rule it out based on the trajectory which seems to be accelerating. Look at it. That Bible prophecy that we’re talking about, Glenn, talks about Russia coming from the north with its allies to attack Israel. Now, take out a map. Go to Moscow. Go straight south and before you get to Israel, where do you drive right through? Georgia. Transcript.

POPSGod's honest truth? The law is being presented in Sweden as if it mostly concerned fundamentalist Christian sects in the backwoods; but the Christian Democratic party, which represents such people if anyone does, is perfectly happy with the new regulation. There is little doubt that combating Islamic fundamentalism is the underlying aim,

POPSNo more 4 gospels. Now they prove the Holy Quran to be right. Muslims always rejected the 4 gospels. They only believe in one true gospel. The Christians are coming closer.

POPSWho Would Jesus Bomb? All the answers to Pastor Rick Warrens questions are in the Bible. Mr. McCain failed miserably by Biblical standards and others.

POPSAdopting Desert Nomad's Science Christians who cling to the outdated belief that being gay is a sin are following the pre-scientific notions and social customs that were relevant 2000 years ago but are outdated and wrong today. Partly they adhere to these archaic beliefs because it gives them biblical authority to feel superior (if they are straight) and backs up their notion of persecution when others speak out against their homophobia.
