When will Barack Obama answer for the bad behavior of his brethren?
2008-05-19 13:17:00 That said, it would be nice to see some glimmer of feminism coming out of our presumptive black male candidate. I'd like to know what he thinks of OJ Simpson, for example. Would he, law professor, stand up in front of a black crowd and admit that he thinks OJ got away with murdering a white woman - unlike the countless black males who actually didn't murder the white woman, but were hanged anyway? In all cases, remember, the woman was actually dead.More importantly, will Obama repudiate the misogynistic undertone in rap music, the tidal wave of bitch and ho vulgarity that does nothing to move young black (andwhite) women an inch closer to parity with men? Read more...Wow! Just...wow, Nina Burleigh. In her Saturday post on Huffington Post, the writer wonders "Is Obama Man Enough to be a Feminist Too?" I wonder if Burleigh realizes how ridiculously race biased it is to ask a candidate to weigh in on O.J. Simpson and decry hip hop simply because he is a black man.Will Hillary Clinton...

But I would ye should understand, brethren
2008-02-22 15:41:00 Php 1:12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; Good morning again my dear friends. Well last night we began our visitation training program, it was started off well and encouraging to see people gathered together to learn how to share the gospel more effectively! The Pastor is putting this on for the next three weeks and encouraging the members of the church to attend of course so that we may break down the barriers of witnessing! If your church doesn't have a program then let me encourage you to pray first for the Lords direction, and then get with your Pastor and ask how you can help him get one started! Well a lot of things are going on in my life right at this moment, not like there aren't a lot of things going on in your lives also. A lot of people that have a true concern at my church has asked if everything is OK and will everything be OK, and my reply happily is yes...

For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father
2008-02-05 15:14:00 Jer 12:6 For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt treacherously with thee; yea, they have called a multitude after thee: believe them not, though they speak fair words unto thee.Good morning dear friends. In continuing my reading in Jeremiah we see that the prophet has come to a point and place and is allowed to reason with God on behalf of the people. After talking with God and asking why the wicked seem to prosper, and the evils they do seem to go unpunished the Lord then starts answering Jeremiah. We get to the above verse and we see that God is warning Jeremiah about the people and the priests who at this time have become wicked and deceitfully used people. Just as in today's time these priests have become fleshly in their desires, and they enjoy the rule, power, and prestige of the priesthood instead of leading people to a Holy God. Friend let me encourage you today to be careful to what you may listen to when it comes across the TV, or the...

Come now, if you feel disposed, let us spring up to the firmament, and visit the regions of God's realm." As he yet spake, he vanished from their sight.

2007-10-28 07:03:00 The secrets of the brethren are not yet out and it's been almost one month since the MBB blog has been up. Those who regularly visit or know about the Mauritian Blog Brethren already know that the secret of the identity of the MBB team has not yet been disclosed to the Mauritian blogging population, though various attempts have been made on the MBB forum to know something about them! :P Many speculations have been made and some even believe that the MBB team are a bunch of UOM lecturers! This is very possible I guess. Especially, since the last review I've read is of a lecturer's blog.Several blogs have been reviewed so far and one of them is mine! :D Cool huh!I don't know to what extent MBB has attained its aim at promoting Mauritian blogs and bloggers but personally, I've got to discover new blogs, make new friends and it has also helped me "break the ice" by going forward and participating in other blogs. I've also got to discover the blogs of old friends and I've bonded b...

A Request Of My Brethren
2007-08-09 00:22:00 I have to admit that I saw this poll on The Daily Kos this morning and I was taken aback somewhat.I know we all here do what we can to communicate to people in a forum that, don?t forget, is maturing each day along with other means of promoting ideas, causes and points of view, but I think it?s a mistake for us to forget about trying to communicate to people who still read ink output on dead trees.I think we should embrace whatever opportunity we can to get people on board with us. And my guess is that there are people still reading the traditional corporate media who may or may not know of bloggers, the netroots, the progressive movement, etc. and could be truly enlightened if we took the time to reach out to them via some kind of a Letter to the Editor or a Guest Column of some type (one of the reasons why I think it?s so important to publicize David Sirota, among others).So please consider scribbling something along the lines of what we post about here and sending it off to a new...

True or False Brethren
0000-00-00 00:00:00 1Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and also took Titus with me. 2And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain. 3Yet not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised. 4And this occurred because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage), 5to whom we did not yield submission even for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you. (Galatians 1-5) Paul stayed in Tarsus for 14 years, teaching and preaching the word of God to the people of that area, Syria and Cilicia. Paul was preaching the gospel there to Jews as well as to Gentiles, and Titus was one of them. Barnabas had come from Jerusalem because he had heard that many gentiles were gettin... |
