As for the word covenant, it is one of those words that has become outdated in modern day living. Others are integrity, compassion, faithfulness, etc...A human kind of humanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12944399986334367708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686754906089902443.post-20949240315002822752010-01-30T13:45:49.809-05:002010-01-30T13:45:49.809-05:00I like this view of the ten commandments - much mo...I like this view of the ten commandments - much more understandable and compassionate than them just being "the law".Argenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10532506690426639326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686754906089902443.post-79893911037753474042010-01-30T13:45:40.676-05:002010-01-30T13:45:40.676-05:00I like this view of the ten commandments - much mo...I like this view of the ten commandments - much more understandable and compassionate than them just being "the law".Argenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10532506690426639326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686754906089902443.post-76429621156907885532010-01-30T11:27:10.519-05:002010-01-30T11:27:10.519-05:00Have you two seen R.

He was going to do a take off an Adam and Eve, but once he started reading it, he was so blown away by the book's weirdness, that he spent five years studying and drawing.

It's very interesting to me as a history but not so much as a testament to god. I mean really, what kind of a god thinks the most righteous man is one who offers his virgin daughters to a stranger for sex?ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686754906089902443.post-33791717245461696252010-01-29T10:27:12.417-05:002010-01-29T10:27:12.417-05:00wow.

Covenants can have great power, but understanding their importance is what makes them work. Thanks for the reminder. Good post.
