I have really been out of the loop for the last couple of days trying to get as much of the DVD done as I could to keep in line with my deadlines.

Great comments, everyone!

I will start with Charis.  Wonderful insight into the “keepers” from scripture.  This was a blessing to me and thank you for posting it.  For some reason my spam program thought it was suspect so I had to rescue it from the spam.  This takes the “keeper” theme to a much bigger view by researching it in the rest of the scriptures.  Marvelous insight and much appreciated!  Yes, we as women are to be “keeper” of the home too and that is protecting and guiding the home.

Greg,
That is quite an indictment from God, isn’t it, when we realize what a great responsibility the watchmen have.  It is helpful for us too to research God’s view of the appointed watchmen and see where he points out our failures.

Truthseeker,
I like how you brought out your thoughts out the early church and how they all contributed.  This is what is missing from our churches that has made us into pew warmers unable to defend our faith because we haven’t participated in our faith.  You are so right in that we can learn from other people’s questions.  When we hear the questions and hear the scriptural answers being presented, we are edified and that is what church should be all about. Good thoughts!

Lin,
I also appreciated your thoughts.  You are right in that we have missed some important things in scripture.  These missing things need to be brought out so that we are not misled by traditions of men.  I like what you said about the full counsel of God.  Amen!

Pinklight,
What can I say? In several different of my posts, you have pointed out some things that have really got my mind going!  I LOVE the interaction here on this blog and how we can all learn from each other.  There is so much to learn and when we allow “iron to sharpen iron” we spur one another on to excellence.
