3/26/2016: I'm so excited to introduce you to this fabulous piece of equipment. I've been testing it for about a month now and it definitely gets a thumbs up….actually two thumbs up! I've tested microneedling over the years and have never been very impressed (I know, many of you are crazy about that technology) so I'll admit that I was hesitant when Rezenerate approached me to test their equipment. At first glance it sure seemed very similar to microneedling. But, oh no it isn't! For me, the feeling during the treatment was much gentler but yet the results were far superior.
2/02/2018: Still loving the Rezenerate after 2 years of using it. I've seen great results with acne scars and I've even tightened up the jawline of a 49 year old woman…..really! I will continue to offer this fabulous treatment as well as support this company!
Hi Shelley the Rezenerate arrived yesterday and I forgot to call you. I did the treatment on myself and so far WOW!


Summary: Gus Murphy thought he had the world all figured out. A retired Suffolk County cop, Gus had everything a man could want: a great marriage, two kids, a nice house, and the rest of his life ahead of him. But when tragedy strikes, his life is thrown into complete disarray. In the course of a single deadly moment, his family is blown apart and he is transformed from a man who believes he understands everything into a man who understands nothing.
I am always excited to discover a new-to-me author! In this case, it's Reed Farrel Coleman author of the novel WHERE IT HURTS. It's not that Mr. Coleman is a new author. He has written many books, including Robert B. Parker's THE DEVIL WINS; and he has won numerous awards including the Shamus, the Barry and the Anthony awards. In addition, he is a three-time Edgar nominee. In fact, I'm a little embarrassed to say that I haven't read one of his novels before.
WHERE IT HURTS tells the story of Gus Murphy, a retired cop who really couldn't ask for much more out of life. He had a solid marriage, two kids, and a nice home... that is until a horrible tragedy occurs. After the death of his son, Gus finds that his world has fallen apart. His family life dissolves and Gus ends up working as a courtesy van driver for a hotel near the airport.
When Tommy Delcamino, an ex con, asks Gus for help, Gus discovers that he finally has interest in something. Tommy's son TJ was brutally murdered and found in a wooded lot. The case was never solved... namely because the Suffolk County PD didn't really investigate it. Tommy decides to ask Gus for help because Gus always treated him fairly. He gives Gus his entire savings of $3000; and once Gus accepts, Tommy is soon found murdered too!
After some investigating, Gus learns that Tommy was telling the truth about his son's murder. Everyone involved in TJ's life seems to be hiding something, and many of his associates weren't exactly upstanding citizens. As Gus digs deeper into TJ's past, he finds that he is slowly coming back to the land of the living!
I thoroughly enjoyed WHERE IT HURTS. It was a great story with even better characters and writing! I appreciated how complex Gus's character was, and I especially enjoyed how well the setting of a seedy Long Island was brought to life. Overall, it was a great example of everything I've come to know and love about literary crime novels.
This novel was good on so many levels. The story was really, really intriguing. It was very smart and had some surprising twists. I was definitely impressed where the story went, but also in how the author had Gus navigate his way through this interesting cast of characters. So well done!
Having said that, I think Gus really made this novel work for me. At the beginning of the novel, he truly was a pitiful character. He was pretty depressed and barely functioning, and I was a little concerned for his future. I absolutely loved how complex he was and how much he "grew" throughout the story. It was interesting to see him come back to life through his devotion to solving TJ's murder.
Finally, I would be remiss if I didn't mention what an incredible writer Mr. Coleman is. He can seriously write! His prose was excellent, as were his storytelling skills; and the way he brought Long Island to life made it another great character in this story. The pacing was virtually perfect and I think I might need to revisit some of his older books.
I was excited to learn that WHERE IT HURTS is the first in a series of Gus Murphy novels. I adored Gus, baggage and all, and can't wait to see him involved in more crime-solving! Highly recommended to fans of literary crime novels!
This sounds really good. I think I have something by that author - I wonder if it's a Gus Murphy book too.

Bicester Village Train Station
he newly opened Bicester Village Train Station means you can now travel straight to the outlet boutiques of Bicester Village from London Marylebone or Oxford Parkway. The platforms have been finished with a luxury, contemporary design to keep a cohesive image across Bicester Village with the Bicester Village outlet centre directly accessible from the new modern entrance on the station platforms.
The station has been completely rebuilt to form part of Chiltern Railway's new £130m Oxford to London Marylebone rail link. IQ was commissioned to design, fabricate and install a structural glass roof link between the platform and the station.
Bespoke glazing was created by IQ with an aluminium mesh interlayer laminated within the glazing using the latest glass laminating technology. The decorative laminated glazing offers a luxury contemporary finish and a great visual effect to what could be just a simple glass structure. The mesh interlayer within the laminated glass creates a more robust elevation, the added security is key for this installation within a public area.
Each installation of structural glazing created by IQ is a bespoke design, engineered to suit each project carefully for a suitable construction and a unique appearance. The structural glazing designed for Bicester Village Train Station was secured in place using steel spider arm clamps, a hard wearing, common mechanism used in public spaces. The steel spider arm clamps and frameless structural glazing forms the contemporary 'spider glazing'.
The spider glazing allows maximum daylight to enter the station but still provides shelter from the weather for the travelling passengers. Bicester Village outlet centre is the main destination of most arriving at the train station, therefore the station needed to be designed to deal with overcrowding. The structural glazing forms a link between the platform and station seamlessly, making the most out of the space available.

Browsing the archives for the charity tag.
It costs $1,000,000 / year to keep each social worker, like the ones pictured above, helping people in Iraq.
One objection to anarchy is that many people will not choose to help others unless the government forces them to through taxes and wealth redistribution. My main objections to this point are that government does not help people and the free market turns selfish people into public servants.
Why doesn't government help people? Well, the presumption is that government steals a dollar from rich Peter and gives it to poor Paul, and this helps Paul more than it hurts Peter. The first mistake is that the government does not give Paul a dollar. First, twenty five cents is used to murder brown people, mostly foreign ones. Then another 25 percent is paid to government employees and retirees. After all the corporate welfare, bank bailouts, boondoggles and bridges to nowhere, after every friend of every politician gets a cut, 12 cents are left over for welfare.
So the question should be: if there were no government, would I still spend twice as much money trying to destroy other countries as I did trying to help the poor? If the difference was to spend only 20 cents on blockades to starve "insolent" people into submission, that could be considered a net positive for anarchy.

Co-op Makes Change One Penny at a Time
By Rob Wolfe
Valley News Staff Writer
Modified: 9/3/2016 12:27:14 AM
Lebanon — When Lebanon Co-op customer Sonia Peters stepped up to a register to pay for her purchase on Friday, she was surprised by an unfamiliar prompt that appeared on the pinpad machine immediately after she swiped her card.
"Oh, what a good idea!" she exclaimed, as the cashier explained the concept to her: Press "Yes" on the screen, and the difference in change that rounds the purchase up to the nearest dollar will be donated to charity.
The Hanover Consumer Cooperative Society has raised nearly $50,000 in the three months since it debuted Pennies For Change.
How the program works was quickly evident from exchanges between clerks and shoppers on Friday afternoon at the Co-op's Lebanon store, where business was brisk before the Labor Day holiday weekend.
Sixty percent of the Co-op's receipts through the program are divided equally among its "food access partners:" Listen Community Services, the Upper Valley Haven and Willing Hands.
The remaining 40 percent is distributed among a rotating group of "community partners," who change each month.
Apparently, there are some situations in which rounding purchases up and down is not regarded as a good practice. A flyer attached to a card reader at the Co-op announced that Pennies for Change raised $17,771.16 in August.
The number has risen steadily each month, according to Amanda Charland, the Co-op's director of member services and outreach.
Pennies for Change is partially based on the organization's existing "community partners" program, which allowed customers to leave donations in boxes kept near the registers.
The inspiration for the electronic model comes from other co-ops, such as City Market in Burlington, she said.
And for those who pay with cash, the option to round up still is available. A clerk can simply press a button and return no change, sending the remainder to charity instead, Charland said.
A news post on the Co-op's website credits the community partner program's director, Emily Rogers, with the idea.
In the first hour at the White River Junction store, customers donated $10, the post said; in the first day, $125.
Now the total for June, July and August stands at just under $50,000, according to the "Pennies for Change" page on the Co-op website.
Co-op employees described the reaction as mixed but positive.
"Some of our customers are a little timid about it," said Courtney Carleton, a clerk at the Lebanon store, explaining that sometimes people mistakenly think the money goes to the Co-op.
In fact, the Co-op, as intermediary for the customers' charitable donations, cannot write the proceeds off on its tax return, Charland said. Nor can the customers, because of the Co-op's involvement, she added.
Other people on Friday appeared to see the program as an imposition.
"Oh, this is still going?" one man said, frowning at the screen. "I mean, I supported it at the beginning, but ..." he trailed off.
As Allison Kennett, another employee, put it, "Some people don't like change — no pun intended."
But it was a resounding success with Peters, who is director of development at The Riverside School, a private academy in Lyndonville, Vt.
"I'm wondering whether there isn't some way for us to do something like it," she said, referring to her school.
And at the Co-op, Pennies for Change appears to be here to stay.
"We plan to make this a permanent program," Charland said. "The response from members and customers has been really positive."
The Co-op is working on a system that can tabulate each customer's contributions, she said, which would allow that person to check on how much he or she has given.
"Once the program's rolled out and people are really familiar with it, we're hoping the cashier won't even have to explain it," she said.
"You get trained on the pin pad system, and then we threw another question in there. We threw a few customers off their habit, but now, I think, it's becoming habit for them."

Especially created by Maurizio Cattelan in collaboration with fellow countryman Pierpaolo Ferrari for Cattelan's major retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, Toilet Paper #4 presents a brilliant new creation from the aberrant, animated mind of the Italian-born provocateur, mischief-maker, and macabre witness to our times.
Toilet Paper # 4 is "inspired by Mike The Headless Chicken, Mario Sorrenti, and Richard Avedon".
TOILETPAPER was founded in 2010 by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari with the art direction of Micol Talso as a picture-based magazine. In the last three years, photos published in the magazine have been applied to a variety of products and media, exploring the multiple possibilites for images to live beyond the pages. TOILETPAPER images have been reviewed by weekly and art magazines worldwide and appeared in special issues of magazines such as Vice and Hunger. TOILETPAPER was also exhibited on the High Line Billboard in Chelsea, NYC in May, 2012. In the same year images taken from the first six issues have been published in an anthology, together with selected narrative texts, that was reviewed in The New York Times' Top 10 Photo Books. In June 2013, TOILETPAPER images have featured on Palais de Tokyo's front windows and a special edition of Libération.

Fatal Godfrey crash victim identified, incident still under investigation
Scott Cousins, scousins@thetelegraph.com
Updated 5:38 pm CDT, Friday, July 20, 2018
EDWARDSVILLE — The driver of a GMC pickup truck killed in a fatal crash on U.S. 67 near Davis Lane in Godfrey has been identified as Kevin D. Johnson, 52, of Jerseyville.
The crash is still under investigation, according to Capt. Mike Dixon of the Madison County Sheriff's Department.
The accident occurred about 5 p.m. Tuesday, when Johnson's truck struck another vehicle and rolled several times, an impact which ejected him from the vehicle.
He was subsequently airlifted to Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, where he was pronounced dead.
According to the Madison County Sheriff's Department, Johnson was apparently involved in a previous crash a few minutes earlier on Godfrey Road at Lars Hoffman Crossing.
Witnesses said the driver of the truck, later identified as Johnson, exited his vehicle after the crash, then got back inside the vehicle and fled the scene. Officers drove north to catch up with the truck and arrived just as the second crash had occurred.
The other vehicle involved in the second accident ended up in the southbound lanes of U.S. 67, with the driver refusing medical treatment at the scene.

Buy your children a book for Christmas, Nicky Morgan tells parents
Education secretary Nicky Morgan is urging all parents to buy their children a book for Christmas.
Ms Morgan said she hoped every child would find a book in their stocking on Christmas Day, because reading would "help set a child up for the rest of their life".
Figures published in May by the National Literacy Trust showed nearly one in eight children – and nearly one in five disadvantaged children – had never been given a book as a present.
"I hope children across the country have the joy of opening a book this Christmas," Ms Morgan said.
"No other gift can transport you from ancient Egypt to the outer reaches of space, introduce you to kings, queens, wizards and elves, make you laugh, take you on an adventure or change the way you see the world, all through the power of words.
"The gift of a book this Christmas will not only provide hours of reading enjoyment, but will help set a child up for the rest of their life."
However, according to the bestselling author John Boyne, parents should choose their children's books carefully.
Mr Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, told TES last month that reading for its own sake was not worthwhile.
"People often say, 'As long as you're reading, it's good'," he said in an interview. "But what's the point of reading rubbish? There are so many better things you could do in life than reading, say, Fifty Shades of Grey. You could learn a language, climb a mountain. Reading for its own sake is not worthwhile.
"Reading for its own sake – what's the point of that, if people aren't reading interesting or challenging books?" he added. "Then you're just reading any words on the page, for the sake of reading words."

What is First – What happens when we truly put God first in all aspects of our lives?

Canada, Mexico get indefinite relief from Trump's steel, aluminum tariffs
Trump is imposing tariffs on global steel and aluminum imports of 25 and 10 per cent that will go into effect in 15 days — and only Canada and Mexico are exempt

WASHINGTON — Canada can breathe easier, for now: It's getting relief from U.S. tariffs for an undetermined period, as one of only two countries receiving a provisional exemption from the steel and aluminum penalties set to clobber the rest of the world.
U.S. President Donald Trump signed proclamations Thursday slapping tariffs of 25 per cent on steel and 10 per cent on aluminum, and they snap into effect for the rest of the world in 15 days.
After months of frantic lobbying, diplomatic arm-twisting, and heated debates within his own administration, Trump is signing the proclamations at the White House, surrounded by steelworkers.
"For now, Canada and Mexico will be excluded from the tariffs," said a senior White House official. "But it's not open-ended."

He sidestepped the question of whether the threat of tariffs will be used to bully Canada and Mexico at the NAFTA bargaining table. Speaking on condition of anonymity in order to discuss matters before they became public, he said only that the reprieve remains in place for now, and that NAFTA is important to economic and national security.
That retains the semblance of a legal fig leaf for the administration.
By law, the tariffs need to be described as a national security matter. A provision in a 1962 U.S. law allows the president to set emergency tariffs as a security issue. But the White House has repeatedly undermined its own legal case, including by intimating that the tariffs would be lorded over Canada and Mexico as some kind of negotiating tool to extract NAFTA concessions.
The White House is now avoiding that kind of talk: "We will have ongoing discussions with Canada and Mexico," said the official. "NAFTA discussions will be part of that only because NAFTA is an important part of the security relationship within the hemisphere."
For now, Canada and Mexico will be excluded from the tariffs. But it's not open-ended
senior White House official
In a media briefing, he expressed frustration at the way the tariffs have been characterized, referring repeatedly to the "fake news," the lobbyists and the "swamp things" that he said exaggerated the ill effects while fighting the measures.
Two polls released this week say the tariffs are unpopular.
But the same official said it truly is a matter of national security — with six U.S. aluminum smelters shutting down the last few years, and just five remaining, and only two operating at full capacity, he said that leaves the U.S. at risk of having to import all its aluminum eventually.
"(This tariff-signing) should be a great day for America," he said.

He also pushed back against reports casting the process as arbitrary, sloppy and rife for successful legal challenges.
In one alleged example of haphazard policy-making, a report this week said the president raised the tariff rates for branding purposes, increasing them from the 24 and 7 per cent recommended by the Department of Commerce — because he wanted nice, round numbers.
The official insisted that was untrue. He said it was only upon careful calculation of import effects that the numbers landed at 25 per cent and 10 per cent. He did not explain how those round numbers managed to survive intact, even after the formula was later upended by the exclusion from tariffs of major suppliers.
Canada is the No. 1 seller of both steel and aluminum to the U.S.
The fact that Canada might be included on the initial hit list had become a political sore spot for the administration, as U.S. critics of the move ridiculed it by zeroing on the idea of national-security tariffs against a peaceful next-door neighbour and defence ally.
A full-court diplomatic press unfolded in recent days, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau calling Trump earlier this week, and then speaking Thursday with the Republican leaders of both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Canada's ambassador to Washington dined this week with U.S. national-security adviser H.R. McMaster; Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland, Natural Resources Minister Jim Carr, Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan, and Transport Minister Marc Garneau all reached out to cabinet counterparts in recent days.
The lobbying found a mostly receptive audience: the U.S. military strongly resisted tariffs against allies, and 107 congressional Republicans released a letter this week to express their alarm over the move.
Expect a low-key response from Canada if Trump indeed intends to use temporary tariff relief as a bargaining threat. That means no talk of walking away from the table, nor any hint of making concessions under pressure.
"Our position hasn't and won't change," one Canadian source said Thursday. "We're after a good deal, not any deal. We'll take no deal rather than a bad one."global steel and aluminum imports with tariffs of 25 and 10 per cent. They go into effect in 15 days.

How a Co-Working Space has Changed the Remote Working Game
By Michael Camilleri on Dec 15, 2017, 3:41 am EST under Working Remotely,
This blog post on remote working has been contributed by our Customer Support Rep Michael Camilleri.
Since birth, I've always been intrigued by the technology industry. Maybe it's because I'm a millennial, maybe it's a natural sought passion. Either way, tech has been a large part of my life for the past 6 years. And, I have always moved for my professions, uprooting my life to another country, sometimes even continent. Although, at each job, whether it was at the Apple Store in Malta or Dropbox in California, I have always been situated in a physical office.
As a bubbly and extroverted person, both my strengths and weaknesses have shone in a physical office environment. Whilst I was able to easily make friends, often long-term, I was also easily taken advantage of for my friendly endeavors such as my strong work ethic and performance in each occupancy. Physical office pros and restraints aside, I became burnt out living in the Bay Area and was never happy in Ireland, both major locations for tech headquarters. I needed a fresh start and set my eyes beyond the USA and the EU. I wanted a challenge and found myself moving to Toronto, Canada.
I came here on the premise of an easy working visa which turned out to be a much more tumulus and difficult goal than first perceived. I was on limited savings and had a deadline in order to source income, something I would never hone through illegal means. I didn't want to leave Canada and realized that, until I acquired my social insurance number, I would not be able to work here. That's when I started looking into remote jobs. Lo and behold, here I am 7 months into the best career I have ever worked.
Whilst I originally stumbled into my current profession out of desperation, I knew going into it that it would be long-term and I have not looked back since. Even with the legal means to work now, I have made this remote career my primary choice with no regrets. It was hard to adjust to this new form of self-discipline, as somebody who thrives off of being around people and feeding into social energy.
I began rebuilding and recovering from months of being out of work and funneling money into immigration, rent, food, and other such necessities. As such, I made cafés my office of choice for the first few months. When I had finally recovered and had the means, I thought to myself, what if there were spaces where other freelancers and remote workers could come together?
It was this thought that led to me to discover a bevy of fantastic co-working spaces in Toronto. After some in-depth research, I settled on Project Spaces. I now have a place where I can go to work with like-minded people. Whilst I appreciate and love the freedom of being able to carry out a job I love on a remote location basis, it is always nice to feel that you belong to a place and can network and meet other persons carrying out the same or similar goals to you. People who understand and relate.
This space allows me to carry out my 9-5 as well as any schooling I may have whenever I need. There's coffee and a wonderful selection of teas included in the membership alongside health care and a slew of other benefits. The office pups here are always a nice bonus, too (you can bring your own). Plus, there are a variety of different seating options and other activities you may partake in such as Thanksgiving dinner, a Christmas party, or even happy hour. I have also formed friendships here that I know I will treasure for a lifetime. I no longer feel that hollowness of working in solitude. I am back to feeling complete without having to sacrifice a job I love so dearly.
My work performance and productivity have most definitely improved since joining. I'm able to better focus and learn. An example of benefits being a fellow remote colleague in the city has also joined. As my experience here will only continue to grow in satisfaction, I wholeheartedly recommend a co-working space for any freelancer or remote worker. Most have a free trial period and will more than happily allow you to experience a day in the space before buying in.

Dubai Launches Six Additional Bus Routes
Dubai has been progressively improving its transportation services in the city to mobilize activities within the emirate and throughout the rest of the country.
As there are various means to get around to places here in Dubai, from trams, ferries, taxis, to abras, and buses, exploring the city and getting to your destination should not really be a problem. And just when you thought Dubai's transport services couldn't get any better, 2019 will see further improvements in this sector, under the direction of the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).
Image Credit: WAM.ae
Dubai Opens Six New Bus Routes
The Public Transport Agency at the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has introduced six new bus routes and upgraded another line to further enhance the public transport network within Dubai and other emirates, as shared in a report by WAM.ae.
According to Adel Shakeri, Director of Planning and Business Development at THE Public Transport Agency, the six new bus routes include the following:
Route E411: Etisalat Metro Station – Ajman;
Route F02: Etisalat Metro Station – Muhaisina 4; and
Route 50: International City Dragon Mart – Al Khail Gate 1 via Silicon Oasis, Dubai Mall, and Business Bay
The following bus routes will be operated on Fridays only:
Route 11B: Rashidiya MS – Al Awir Bus Terminus;
Route 34: Etisalat MS – Al Brayan Labour Camp Al Khawaneej 2 via Al Qusais Bus Station; and
Route 56: DANUBE Metro Station – DWC Staff Village.
Shakeri further explained that along with the introduction of the above bus routes, the service frequency of Route F55: Ibn Battuta Metro Station – Al Maktoum International Airport has been reduced from 60 to 30 minutes.
The initiative aligns with the RTA's efforts to promote happiness to public transport riders, and to particularly meet the growing demand for public bus services. The upgrade in this sector would mean faster accessibility, which would translate to efficiency in services and processes that would impact society in a positive way.

The air-soft gun recovered at the scene.
The Centennial Lakes Police Department received word that people were firing a semi-automatic weapon in the neighborhood Friday night. That weapon turned out to be an airsoft gun.
According to police, at 7:22 p.m. Anoka County dispatch received a report of a group of four-to-five people were firing a semi-automatic firearm near a church in the area of Ash Street and Indian Hills Lane, on the border between Lino Lakes and Circle Pines. The caller did not know at the time if the gun was real or not. The department added in their Facebook post that it is their job "to take it very seriously and respond as if someone is trying to harm our community whether it is real or not."
Multiple officers responded from CLPD and Lino Lakes Police Department. Upon arrival, officers made contact with a group of young adults who had been testing out a new airsoft rifle. The weapon recovered by police is pictured below.
The call was resolved without the use of force and without any injuries.
Police said from a distance it is nearly impossible to distinguish this weapon as not real. The orange tip had been intentionally removed. Police added that these types of weapons are not toys, and it is illegal to discharge these types of weapons.
The matter remains under investigation by the Lino Lakes Police Department.

What is required for Salvation?
What is required (beliefs/actions) for salvation?
1. I'm looking for things required from man's point of view…not answers like "being elect" (although I agree).
2. I know most of the answers would be the same without understanding what I'm digging at…I want to know your thoughts from the following perspectives: a) What heresies/wrong beliefs can you hold as long as you hold to the "core beliefs" that make you a Christian? ie. Are there heresies that are so severe that they negate your correct beliefs? b) Are the core beliefs all that are really required?
7 Responses to What is required for Salvation?
Maybe the hardest question I've ever asked on this site?
Probably not the answer you are looking for, but when Jesus is asked (I'm paraphrasing), "What must someone do to be saved?" He says, "believe in Jesus". I think if you believe in Jesus, you believe the things said in the Apostles Creed(Below). You can believe certain things about me like I am nice or mean, for instance, and still believe in me–even though I may not be either of those things.The core beliefs of the Creed are all that matter for salvation. Out of our beliefs, come our actions. Once Jesus came, our belief in Jesus was paramount to any action. What I am saying is, if you behave in a way that could be deemed heresy, you better examine your beliefs. It's circular…Beliefs-Behaviors-Results.Apostles CreedI believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He arose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty, whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy family of God, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.
So are there heresies that can keep us from being Christians?What if I don't believe in the inspiration of the Bible?What if I don't believe in the Trinity?What if I don't accept the doctrine of the elect?
Romans 10:9: if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
category. I John 5:18 We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.
Therefore, if you keep on sinning, you have no warrant to have full confidence in your salvationnot because you need to earn it, but because those who have faith are the same group whos faith works out in action though love. I think that you should never use grace as a ticket to go on sinning (Romans 6:1). If you are in sin and especially if you dont regret ityou should not have confidence in your salvationnot because youve lost it, but that you never had it. Its a healthy, Biblical fear that is put in place to bring about reconciliation to God. Now to the controversial part: Where is the point where Ive sinned too much to have confidence in salvation? I believe we dont know where that point is. Our job is to continually live out our faith to prove to ourselves that we are indeed elect. 2 Peter 1:10 Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to make your calling and election sure, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall.
I think there is a theoretical point where we (the elect) would make shipwreck of our faith if we continued in sin, but God intercedes with judgment, i.e. sickness and even death to keep his elect from being condemned. Hell take the elect home before he lets them perish. 1 Corinthians 11: 32But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so that we may not be condemned along with the world.
We cant change who is elect and who isnt. But the truth is our only way of Biblically knowing if we are indeed elect is to believe (have faith) and also to witness its fruit.
Yeah, the Bible doesn't deal much with hypotheticals. My questions next would be: Why don't you believe in the inspiration of the Bible? Why don't you believe in the Trinity? And why do you claim faith and lordship in Jesus Christ who affirmed each of these?
Though I believe the above posts are true indeed, being a Christian is more than just believing in a list of statements. Believing in the Gospel in its truest sense means having a RELATIONSHIP with the Trinity. Even Satan believes that Jesus is the son of God, etc. The key is that Satan does not have a love relationship with Him as we Christians do. I think the way that we pursue and respond to the Holy Spirit is the greatest indicator on how we are living out our faith.I don't see how you can be a Christian and not believe the Word is true and inspiried. Where do you learn about who the God of Abraham is? If you don't believe in the Trinity, then I think you might as well be Jewish or Muslim.The doctrine of the elect is debated among denominations continually. I'm not sure this is a "requirement". I do believe that someone could be a Christian and not believe in predestination.

Salty Coffee
"She was an amazing person." Jamal put down his half-empty mug on his desk. He had been caffeine-free for close to six months, but he couldn't decline the offer from his old student cum good friend.
"Yeah, she was." Shariff held on to his cup of coffee while staring off outside the window behind Mr Jamal.
Even though sixteen years separate 27-year-old Shariff and his former lecturer Mr Jamal, they had grown close. Alongside Syazwani, they had gone to his office for regular post-office-hour coffee sessions in his office at the university, right from their second year (the first time Mr Jamal taught them English Literature) up until their graduation. Now, almost four years after graduating and a year after the last time they met each other, it felt different. Maybe it was because of the time since they've met each other. Or maybe it was just because Syazwani wasn't here anymore.
"Do you remember the time when she got so mad at me after the first month of classes?" Jamal said with a smile on his face, not quite having it in him to look directly into Shariff's eyes.
Shariff cracked a smile. "Yeah. She didn't like the mark you gave her for that test. She said it was 'unjustified'. I actually encouraged her to go up to see you. Man did we have some learning to do." Shariff said, the smile still there, his gaze now fixed on his still-full cup of coffee.
"Hm, that you did. I told her that I've already read it more than fifteen times already, that I didn't need to be retold what the author said. I wanted to know what she thought of it. But of course you know that, you were there." Jamal finally allowing his eyes to look for Shariff's, though he couldn't. Shariff seemed to be deeply contemplating his coffee.
Shariff nodded his head. That's Mr Jamal. Took them out of the boxes they've been put in ever since school. Made them question the box. Made them question other people. Made them question him. Made them question life. They owed him so much.
"You could say that that was the day that started all this, huh?" Shariff said, almost to himself.
Jamal smiled. "You could say that, yes."
Shariff shifted in his seat. "Oh yeah, speaking of which.." Shariff reached for his bag beside him and pulled out a book. By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept by Paulo Coelho. "Here you go."
"Ah, yes. It was this book. Forgive me, I totally forgot which one we were supposed to talk about. She didn't happen to tell you what she thought about it, did she?" Jamal took the book in his hand and examined to front of it.
"Of course she didn't. She wanted to wait to tell you in person, as usual." Shariff still couldn't bring himself to make eye-contact with his favourite teacher.
Jamal nodded. "Well then, what do you think of it?"
Shariff looked up and finally looked at Mr Jamal in the eye, opened his mouth to speak, and almost immediately closed it again with his hand. Tears started streaming down his face as he tried to contain his sobs, but to no avail.
Jamal got up around his desk and put his hand on Shariff's back, stroking it gently.
"It's okay Shariff. It's okay." Jamal didn't really know what to say, but felt that he had to say something. He knew that Shariff looked up to him, but now he felt himself so powerless, so he repeated those words, the same words that had been told to him when he lost his beloved all those years ago. "It's okay. It's okay."
Shariff didn't know why he was crying. He didn't like it. He just couldn't hold it in any longer. He missed Syazwani. He loved Syazwani. And now she's gone. What was he supposed to do? He thought that he had accepted death as a part of life, not the end of it. But nobody told him how hurt he would be when it finally happened to someone he cared about. To the one person he cared the most about. He knows he should be strong and embrace it. But how do you embrace something that brings you so much pain? How? He just didn't know.
Jamal let his former student the several minutes he needed calm down. When the worst had subsided, he sat on the chair next to Shariff while still holding on to his mug.
"You know, someone said something to me a long long time ago, and I think it was pretty good thought. Made me look at life a little differently. You want to hear it?"
Shariff nodded. He couldn't bring himself to speak in the condition he's in.
"That person said, on our last day on Earth, what is going to shine through is not how many personal achievements we have attained, but how many hearts we were able to touch." Jamal said while gazing out of the window.
Shariff stopped breathing for a few seconds, then exhaled a smile. "Yeah, pretty wise words, I'd say."
"So what do you think? Did she live by her words? Did she touch as many hearts as she could?" Jamal still seemed like he was looking for something outside the window.
Shariff exhaled once again. He thought about how many students of hers were at her funeral. How many of her friends from university came, fellow students as well as lecturers, how many of her neighbours, her family, close and far, even some friends she had never met before in real life who just said they knew her online, how many people were inspired by her passion, her determination, her zeal for life, her caring demeanor, her compassion, her honesty and her way with words. "Yeah, I think she did."
Jamal couldn't help but smile seeing Shariff smile the way he was. It was the smile he had when he had Syazwani beside him. "She was an amazing person."
"Yeah, she was." Shariff let his tears again drop into his cup of coffee.
