Fine Tuning Only

"Love One Another" is a seven chapter manuscript with a studyguide. The link for the study guide can be found in the right hand margin entitled: "Love One Another Study Guide". This project was posted as a response to a statistic the American Family Association released about three months ago on American Family Radio. The statistic was, at that time; "Only six percent of all people who call themselves Christians truly understand the core message of the Bible".

I do not profess to be an expert. However, I have studied the Bible for a considerable amount of my life and only grew interested in studying when I viewed the Bible from an archealogical perspective. This revealed the reality of God having created an historical interaction with man. The realization inspired me to continue to investigate the scriptures. Especially those portions of scripture that seem ambiguous to most persons.

Studying scripture is not always enough to come to an understanding of it. And I seriously doubt that any-one person will be an absolute authority on the Holy Scriptures. There are times when it is beneficial to know something of the culture or traditions of those persons who are involved in the portion of scripture you are studying. If we do not do this, we are not fully investigating those passages we are studying.

"Love One Another" is a kind of 'connect the dots' manuscript to help the person who is seeking, or to aid in sharpening the Christian's understanding. That being said, I invite you to leave your comments and be a part of shaping this material to simplify it.

So, "Love One Another" has come to a close, however, I will still prefer to edit this project until it is a simple explanation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Click on the link here: "Richmond Evangelical-Examiner" to read more of what I have endeavored to gain an understanding. Or, continue reading, beginning with Chapter One, "God Created Man" below.

My name isn't Liz. It's Lauren...and how do you know CJ? Also, his blog is just some fiction writing that he's been doing.

Lauren,
I only know C.J. because he and I used to visit one another's blogs. How is he? He has not been by to visit or answer my comments on his blogs. He stopped blogging for awhile, correct?

I totally agree that knowing the culture and tradition can GREATLY aid with understanding scripture.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, even though chocolate isn't for you. Lol! :-)

It doesn't take long for things to get passes around does it? This part of blogging is pretty new to me. Jody

Hi Jody,
You are welcome to post to this blog. I am finished with it. But, I do take suggestions to help shape the message of "Love One Another".
Thanks for stopping by. My main blog, I believe you posted on is "Journaling For Growth".

Looks like I may have to implement some pro active measures to keep this junk off of my site!
My apologies to my readers.
