KLAN

 This book 'A Fever in the Heartland' is worthwhile. 'Fighting Irish because they fought 'em. 1924 Immigration law, Hitler copied Indiana statutes, Prohibition shut down the 5th largest industry in America, Klan almost bought Valparaiso, Blacks shifted to Democrats because, Walgreen became wealthy selling liquor by prescription, doctors benefited too (read elsewhere), Stephenson became wealthy ('I am the law) with % of dues and clothing, etc.

The H of theeeos

 The H of theeeos--Groups destroyed

My hope is to get someone who can write to make something pastors can use to comprehensively illuminate and sing the books God wrote. Proposals solicited.
We won't win the next 1000 years without comprehensivity.
There's much more than what we know now.
 
The last 7 weeks before  the start of CORAM, is for organizing the good use of comprensivity toward small enthusiastic groups.
 
This week we have Deuteronomy and how the 'transenddance' has destroyed old groups.
 
It's obvious.

North No 'hell', 'final judgment', etc. in OT

 

North: No 'hell', 'final judgment', etc. in OT?



Elsewhere he mentions Job and Daniel as having same.
I need deep, nuanced replies, please.
P. 132 of Proverbs commentary. https://www.garynorth.com/Proverbs-2021.pdf
 
 
DEFENSIVE WALLS
Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.
Proverbs 11:4
A. The Day When Everything Changes
There is no concept of the final judgment in the Old Testament. The
doctrines of the final judgment, hell, heaven, the lake of fire, and the
post-resurrection new heaven and new earth are all exclusively New
Testament doctrines.1
 So, this proverb refers to history. This is not to
say that these dual principles do not apply also to eternity. They do.
But that is not its focus here. If we are to understand how it applies to
us, we must first understand how it was believed to apply under the
Mosaic covenant
 
Thanks! Chuck

FreeFreeFree for church websites

 Another thing I'd do is to list on the church website all the FreeFreeFree available. Khan Academy has 100 million students, Project Gutenberg has 57,000+ free books, MIT has free classes taught by people who've won the Nobel Prize. University of the people has free MBA and more. Open Culture has 1700 free courses and free K-12 . And much much more. The is Service. People will go to the site for free stuff, but the big diffference would be the teaching that knowledge does not make moral. Socrates vs. Paul--'Who will save me from this body of death?'[I have another too] Lingua Deo Gloria is free too
