Qatar Archeology: Romans in Qatar?
2008-04-05 23:46:00 Actually, no - or at least not many.A recent article in the Gulf Times, based on claims by a rogue archeologist, claimed that Qatar was settled by traders from the Indus Valley, and that the Romans had settlements in Fuwarit, Jessasiya and Umm Almah. You can read the article on the Gulf Times website.I was very impressed and mentioned it to an archeologist friend - who told me that it was all rubbish. The article was based on claims by an amateur archeologist who had, shall we say, misinterpreted and exaggerated the facts.According to the Amiri Diwan website the Romans may have been in Qatar at some point - however, this seems to have been limited to a temporary fishing station. The truth is that for centuries Bahrain was more attractive to settlers, because of its fresh water springs and reserves - many of which are now sadly drying up due to over development. As a result Bahrain has a far more interesting history (although not necessarily a happier one!)Qatar probably was, howeve...

Romans 13 and Revelation 13
2008-03-02 01:36:00 Yesterday I attended a Bible study with my friends that are not typical Evangelicals. In fact, they are formerly jaded Evangelicals who tried to make sense with the naiveness of Evangelicalism.The Bible study leader, himself a theology professor, discussed Romans 13:1-7 about the notion of submission to governing authorities, which is the favorite hiding place of the Fundamentalists regarding civil duty.Romans 13 is always taken out of context. The author of the letter St. Paul should be understood in the light of the context of his time. Paul benefited from his Roman citizenship when he received an assassination plot from the Jews. On taxation, the citizens of the Roman empire should pay tributes and taxes in order to sustain the empire. And the Jews during the time were so cunning that they did everything to evade taxation in the belief that they do not honor the authority of the Gentile emperor who called himself 'Son of God.' For the Jews, the Son of God title should only be g...

A real life (or death?!?) illustration of Romans 6:23
2007-09-18 05:28:00 [Copyright notice this is my stuff and carries with it jws blogprint] Romans 6:23 tells us that ‘the wages of sin is death’. A story from China today, I believe serves to illustrate this point well: BEIJING (Reuters) - A Chinese man dropped dead after playing Internet games for three consecutive days, state media said on Monday as China seeks to wean Internet addicts offline. The man from the southern boomtown of Guangzhou, aged about 30, died on Saturday after being rushed to the hospital from the Internet cafe, local authorities were quoted by the Beijing News as saying. “Police have ruled out the possibility of suicide,” the newspaper said, adding that exhaustion was the most likely cause of death. It did not say what game he was playing. (Full story) Three days of pouring money into one of this life’s great distractions and this man finally hits the jackpot! Oh, that’s not what the story said? …You mean this is yet another s...

Friends, Romans, Countryman Lend Me Your Ear
2007-09-14 22:17:00 Thanks to network television continued refusal to put anything worth watching during the summer, I get to use that time to catch up on some quality television I may have missed. Namely the ones on premium channels that I don’t subscribe to in part because I am what the government like to classify as poor but more importantly if I subscribed to one of them I would sit around and watch movies all day trying to get my money worth, not accomplishing anything else. I went through two series this summer the first of which was HBO’s reinterpretation of ancient Rome (a review of the first season of Dexter is coming later this month).Rome is basically a tale of two stories. The first follows the real life Julius Caesar and his fight for the city against former ally Quintus Pompey. Although those two tend to take the back seat to Caesar’s conniving niece Atia of the Julii and the two brats she has raised Octavia and Octavian. And they intertwine with plenty of names you should recognize...

VICTORIOUS ROMANS AND THE LOWEST SPOT ON THE EARTH
2007-09-05 22:05:00 2- The Romans have been defeated.3- In the lowest part of the earth. But after defeat they will soon be victorious.4- Between three or nine years. God?s is the imperative first and last. On that day the believers will rejoice.30-The Romans, 2-4At the time of the descent of the Quran, the Romans were practicing Christianity while the Persians were Zoroastrians. The Muslim population was grieved to hear that it was the Persians who had won the war against the Romans since Christians were monotheists. The victory of the Zoroastrians against the believers baffled the Muslims. The Quran predicted that the Romans (Byzantium) would soon become victorious and that the believers would rejoice. The expression ?beda seneen? in verse 4 refers to the numbers ranging from three to nine. The number of followers of Muhammad continued to increase. Had this statement of the Quran proved to be wrong, the confidence of the followers in Muhammad would have been shaken and the number of apostates would h...
When in Rome--do What the Romans Do!
2007-08-28 12:13:00 author : Roy E. K.If you have taken the time and expense to visit Rome, why would you be concerned about home?So, you have planned this trip to Rome for months-you need to get away, to forget about things for awhile and enjoy all that Rome has to offer. Everyone needs a vacation, a change of pace, an opportunity to experience something different.So why is it that two days after you have arrived in Rome, you are thinking about things at home? Your focus is not where you are. Your mind constantly is returning to what may be going on at home. Your job is occupying much of your minds attention. You left home to experience Rome, not to dwell on things thousands of miles away. Your home will be there when you get back. Your job will be there and so will your family and friends. How much sense does it make to be dwelling on these things?You have 14 days, and for two of them you have not been in the moment.

Romans 8:28
2007-08-28 05:30:00 All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.God's definition of good is that which works to transform us into the likeness of Jesus Christ. Therefore it is possible for a Christian to suffer - such as persecution- and still call it good because God promises that it IS good. If we only look at one point, there are thousands of God-honouring testimonies from Christians who were imprisoned, beaten, or martyred for their faith; of how their trust and love for Christ thrived under the pressure of suffering.

Grabe pa rin daw ang email na natatanggap ng ABS-CBN na nagre-request na huwag munang tapusin ang naturang soap opera.Supposedly, hanggang April na lang ang MSKM. Ang alam nga namin, ang Rounin na isang tele-epiko ang ipapalit dito, pero hindi pala. Mas mauna pa atang matatapos ang Princess Hour on the second week of April kaya dito ipapasok ang Rounin.Sana lang, eh, huwag mag-suffer ang kalidad ng istorya ng Maging Sino Ka Man kapag pinahaba nila ito. Isa rin kasing factor kung bakit inaabangan at sinusubaybayan ng televiewers ang naturang programa ay dahil sa magandang flow ng istorya nito.Source: JournalOnline

Without Excuse: A Look at Romans 1
2007-02-04 04:47:00 The first chapter of Romans seeks to tell us what man can know about God and how he can come to that knowledge. There are two ways in which we can gain knowledge of God and before I go any further I would like to define those two paths. The first is commonly called "general revelation." General revelation can best be described as the gaining of knowledge of God without God's active intervention. Most commonly truths discovered about God through general revelation come from the natural world. Reason is usually the main tool which gives us knowledge via general revelation. The second kind of revelation is "special revelation." This kind of revelation deals with God directly interacting with mankind to give us some knowledge of Himself. The Bible is the best example of special revelation; however, I think that it can also apply to visions, dreams, and other direct experiences with God. Now that we've defined the two main kinds of revelation, let us look at what the apostle Paul has t...
The New Testament :: What does the Book of Romans say About
2007-01-04 02:31:01 Author: Eric Subject: What does the Book of Romans say About Homosexuality? Posted: Tue Jan 02, 2007 12:30 am (GMT -5) Paul, Romans and Homosexuality by Greg Koukl To most readers, the first chapter of Paul's letter to the Romans contains the Bible's clearest condemnation of same-sex relations--both male and female. Recent scholarship, though, reads the same text and finds just the opposite--that homosexuality is innate and therefore normal, moral, and biblical. Reconstructing Romans In Romans, Paul seems to use homosexuality as indicative of man's deep seated rebellion against God and God's proper condemnation of man. New interpretations cast a different light on the passage. Paul, the religious Jew, is looking across the Mediterranean at life in the capital of Graeco-Roman culture. Homosexuality in itself is not the focus of condemnation. Rather, Paul's opprobrium falls upon paganism's refusal to acknowledge the true God. It's also...
Why did Romans, Celts, and even prehistoric settlers submerg
2006-12-19 06:44:01 Archaeologist Andrej Gaspari is haunted by pieces of the past. His hometown river, the Ljubljanica, has yielded thousands of them?Celtic coins, Roman luxuries, medieval swords?all from a shallow 12-mile (19 kilometers) stretch. Those who lived near and traveled along the stream that winds through Slovenia's capital of Ljubljana considered it sacred, Gaspari believes. That would explain why generations of Celts, Romans, and earlier inhabitants offered treasures?far too many to be accidental?to the river during rites of passage, in mourning, or as thanksgiving for battles won.
