We live in an age of opportunity unparalleled by any other.
Have you ever considered the unique opportunities God gave us in this age? An example being the current State of Israel allowing archaeologists and scholars to learn more there than ever before? Yet when artifacts are dated as millions or billions of years old, do you feel skeptical? If so, what solution would you come up with to reconcile your interest in archaeological findings? And before spending any time contemplating this, think also about one more thing. What if understanding better the context of various Bible stories could help us make even more appropriate applications for living in today’s world?
By leaving all our conclusions to advanced scholars, we’ll repeat what the majority did during the medieval ages
Yet by organizing desired data into more elaborately thought-out patterns, wouldn’t that encourage research? If research were made more interesting, would more Christians adhere to accuracy and reliability? For example, I asked you how to increase your interest in ancient artifacts. Wouldn’t it help if you could sort by era?
What if artifacts dated millions of years ago were grouped together? So now you can think, “That’s what THEY say about all these artifacts, but I’ll believe this instead.” In contrast, by leaving all our conclusions to advanced scholars, we’ll repeat what the majority did during the medieval ages. This reaction is more shameful considering the ease of our technology today.
We live in an age of opportunity unparalleled by any other. Jesus said, “Everyone to whom much was given, of him, much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more” (Luke 12:48b). This drives my passion.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted. I read this book recently & enjoyed it as much as Joachim Jeremias, which says a lot :)

I like AI (Artificial Intelligence) improving my pictures in my blogs, although I hope in the future it can improve them more. AI is recent technology & usually the 1st versions of anything improves with time. I never liked pictures of Jesus for a few reasons (i.e. accuracy is only 1 reason), but would like them better if his face was mostly hidden by the angle &/or his clothing. Yet I felt I needed pictures to display what my blogs were about. So I look forward to improving this in time.
So it turned out to be too much this year for my student to get my recent research database available online, we went back to the demo from up-to 2016 research again. Perhaps if I get 1-2 real good student next year it may be within reach now, but I'm content with researching off-line & with hopes my programmer/friend will find time to do it eventually.
