So like any person in the Church who is caught up in a sin we warn them just like we would want them to warn us. So unlike you, we do believe it is the Inspired Word of God. So how about you accept the fact that YOUR anything goes belief is your belief. Most of us that come on this blog are Christians and we have every right to express our Christian faith and beliefs. Question, are you going on Islam blogs and saying this, or is this anything goes attitude reserved just against Christian?

My son has no small children distracting him at home just me to fuss over him, but he finds just being in his room with his tv & Xbox a distraction so takes himself to the library where he focuses better. Also it's a good way of disciplining himself & so far it has done him good finishing top of his year 3 years running. I can understand it would be difficult for anyone studying with 2 small children around & if he does not have a different room to study in as someone has suggested then it would be impossible. However as law is a long difficult course Derick needs to pace himself & not study too hard & burn himself out or become disillusioned with the course entirely & give it up. I gave my son the same advice when he started medical school as initially he was studying all day & well into the night & was making himself ill, if your intelligent enough to be admitted onto a course then you are intelligent enough to not overdo things.

When I went to the cafeteria to get something to eat and unwind from studying the last thing I would have wanted to encounter would be a couple of small children and their soccer ball.

If you are asked what is sin, then answer truthfully from Bible authority. If not, then you just show people the Gospel. God accepts people exactly how they are, and HE then works in their hearts to conform them to Jesus' likeness. The answer is different if you are dealing with sin in the church -- in which case Christians are instructed to confront it head-on.

If you talk loudly in the dining area, you can be heard down the hall by the classrooms. As I stated before, I would be furious if I was attempting to study and there were kids making lots of noise and distracting me. <br />It is also important to note that dining areas at law school is typically different from undergrad. Not as many people, and definitely not as loud. <br />Maybe my opinion is just different because I experienced this at a top 10 law school - so everyone was VERY focused on doing well!

Many already working there had military backgrounds, 2-year degrees, or some other level of unfinished college. So the company hired a university to run night courses designed specifically for these workers. Anyone who stuck with it earned their 4-year degrees at no cost to them, other than time. Even the computers and textbooks were supplied.

Deacon, I noticed in both your posts that you never refer to transgender or homosexuality as a sin but an issue. You then challenge people to not make it our responsibility but to take it up with God. Where is the challenge to the homosexuals and transgender to stop committing an abomination by their lifestyle? So you have totally shifted the responsibility of this sin and then told Christians not to love and warn each other which God commands us to do, and then you challenge God by saying He needs to be responsible for this. God has defined transgender and homosexuality as an abomination and whether you or anyone else has a problem with that, that would not God's problem but your problem. There is nothing to take up with God, His truth is absolute. He said it is an abomination. He is God, we are not. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
