http://www.gregstier.org/rants/how-do-you-do-apologetics/ Rantings of a Jesus-loving, raving lunatic Wed, 17 Mar 2010 23:48:00 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 http://www.gregstier.org/rants/how-do-you-do-apologetics/comment-page-1/#comment-135092 Jocee Thu, 16 Jul 2009 17:11:39 +0000 http://www.gregstier.org/rants/how-do-you-do-apologetics#comment-135092 That was an awesome clip. I got half way through it then started it over so I could take notes. I really liked when he was talking about the battle of flesh and blood at the end because I have learned about the battle and how to be prepared for battle but I really liked how he was talking about how we aren't fighting and wrestling mormons or hindus but we are battling Satan because he's captured them and they are his prisioners. Then he said the part I really liked, "It's a rescue operation for a captive soul." I thought that was just like super cool, haha and it helps you imagine a picture of the situation and how sereious it is. Not only are we constantly being attacked individually, but Christianity as a whole is being attacked. We need to watch out for our brothers and sisters fighting along side us and we need to rescue those who are taken captive. I thought that was awesome and I also liked when he talked about finding common ground when you're sharing your faith. Because it's like how could I find common ground with this person? Their beliefs are so different than mine. Then he talked about the common ground with a Satanist is that you both believe in a spiritual world. It just helps you realize that you can find common ground if you try. And I really liked the question he closed with: Do you care about the prisioners? I liked it because we can't be sharing to win or to prove a point, we have to share to bring back the lost and captured souls. We need to share because we care! (hahaha that rhymes! lol sharing is caring!) That was an awesome clip. I got half way through it then started it over so I could take notes.

Miley Palmer was a great woman of God, and even in our time of sorrow, it helps to hear such encouraging words. Surely she is rejoicing, and reaping the rewards she so honorably deserves for such a wonderful, Christ-honoring life. And Lane is one of the sweetest fruits of her witness on this Earth. Well done indeed! Good words, Greg. Miley Palmer was a great woman of God, and even in our time of sorrow, it helps to hear such encouraging words.
