∼striving for the unity of the faith for the glory of God∼ Eph. 4:3,13 • Rom. 15:5-7

Got your ticket?? If you do not want to get one from Robert Schuller’s Hour of Power ministries perhaps you could get something similar from Bob Gray and his quick-prayer methodology over at Longview Baptist Temple! Check out this post by James Spurgeon which drives this point home.

∼striving for the unity of the faith for the glory of God∼ Eph. 4:3,13 “¢ Rom. 15:5-7

I just ran across a good resource for bloggers and blog readers (sometimes called blurfers, ie. blog surfers). The Best of the God Blogs, posts daily (M-F) links to some of the best posts out there in the Christian blogosphere. They even take recommendations from readers.

Anyway, as an example of what you can find, let me briefly mention what I found listed there this past Friday. I found a great article by Carolyn Mulcahey, of Solo Feminity, on “Modesty in a Hypersexual World” (a good admonition for women, particularly single women, on the importance of modesty in dress as part of a Christian worldview). I also found the answers to the Heresy quiz which I posted about here. And I found another link to a blog post containing all 15 stanzas of the classic hymn “Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee”. This kind of valuable material is linked to daily thanks to The Best of the God Blogs! Check it out for yourself.

Any other Arm Chair Theologians out there? Listen up! You need to do more than just theorize and quantify everyone else’s problems. Better check out yourself too.

Take this quiz to see if you rank as a heretic. Yes a bonafide heretic.

Really, all kidding aside, you need to check out this quiz. It is a test of both your orthodoxy and your knowledge of church history–specifically, the historical identification and rejection of unorthodox teachings.

Now you need to do the quiz first! But afterward, you can check out the answers here. And while you are at it, you might want to bookmark that blog (Theology and Biblical Studies by Steven Harris)! It looks really interesting and beneficial.

So, did you pass? Are you Chalcedon compliant?

We all might not answer each question correct but let us use this to sharpen our theological understanding. For more on Chalcedon, check out this article by Wikipedia.
