I finally found Origen's commentary of Romans :) -or I mean, what's left of it, what has survived the ages. And it's just a "preview", I still need to buy the books. But I finally found a translation of it online for free. I'm happy. My readings of the Early Church Fathers kind of stopped when I came to it. I didn't want to move on from Origen's stuff without going through that commentary. I wound up spending my time looking for a transltion if it rather than reading in the Church Fathers. But I found one now. I'm happy:)
One more day till election. I wonder how Prop 19 is gonna go. If it passes, we've got our work cut out for us. It's got an achille's heel that can potentially make the penalties worse than what they already are.
“You have rejected this message; you trust instead in your ability to oppress and trick, and rely on that kind of behavior. So this sin will become your downfall." -Isaiah-
Prop 19 was designed by people who want to make money. Money is the primary motive behind it. "sellouts" designed it. It doesn't set us free. And given the discrepancies in taxation, life could become much worse for potsmokers. If it passes, I'll run with it as best as I can, but I fear we'd be running the wrong way down a 10-20 year dead end road. All of our work will be for nothing.
I can't believe I voted NO, but I did. And I think I made the right decision. It doesn't set us free, not in the slightest.
If we focus on the FDA, we can make a significant impact. That's where we need to hit them, and we need to hit them hard and don't stop until they reschedule.
can't believe I voted NO. But I did and I think it was the right decision.
Anxeity-depression-ptsd should all qualify, but I'm not sure. All I remember about Michigan was fighting forced blood tests (per Jerusalem council)
-that's why we wrote Prop 215 "for any illness", because we knew they would try to discredit qualifiable conditions.
Be careful in Michigan, They've got some of the most vicious drug sentencing patterns in the whole country. Do your best to follow the law, as best as the Lord allows you to.
I live in michigan and was told by a counsellor I was a good candidate for medical marijuana. But can I get it for anxiety disorder or depression or P.T.S.D.? i know i can for cronic pain, which I also have. But I'm wondering about the other conditions.
"There are a lot of people speaking the truth with no love, and there are a lot of people talking about love without much truth" - Shane Claiborne on his book The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an Ordinary Radical
ask yourself, what does it profit you to hang out with people who are bent on following cultural values instead of the Word anyways? If congregations aren't sensitive and loyal to the Word of God on this, they are weak and will compromise any time the world comes against the Scriptures.
notwithstanding, even in this error, they're stiil a cut above the secular world that brought us this prohibition to start. Weak and sick, there's still a hope of their repentance, because those who believe will not perish.
Interfaith Drug Policy Initiative has a list to that nature, [link]
But I know of no Christ centered congregation that will not take offense at a pot smoker. The stigma itself shatters any chance at trust and confidence within the Body, and as a result, potsmokers are alienated and detached from the congregations, just like we are in soceity.
it was a lonely world for Abraham. I myself have decided to just stay away from the Churches, because the Churches themselves get attacked by gossip slander and rumor, and they are divided and destroyed when the subject comes up.
Books, study helps, commentary, dictionaries, recordings of sermons; you can grow in knowledge and draw close to Christ, but the Churches don't want us there, save to try and convince you that abstinence from pot is what God wants from you.
Corporate worship and strong relationships are what we lose if we bring the subject up.
