godztuff: Is the Bible Reliable?
http://godztuff.blogspot.com/2006/12/are-gospels-true.html
Friday, December 1, 2006. Is the Bible Reliable? 1 They read like eye-witness accounts in that there is general agreement on the outline of what happened with minor discrepancies (virgin conception/birth – ministry of teaching [love/faith-based living] – miracles – prophetic – healing – crucifixion – resurrection – ascensions). These minor discrepancies make it unlikely that the accounts are the result of collusion i.e. if they were, then the minor discrepancies would have been removed. I conclude that t...

godztuff: Who made God?
http://godztuff.blogspot.com/2007/02/who-made-god.html
Tuesday, February 27, 2007. This is one of the great questions kids like to ask. It is also a favourite of Richard Dawkins, this question being the main argument he raises against God in the God-delusion. Usually it is a response to Christian arguments for the existence of God i.e. everything that exists has a cause except the uncaused first cause; for you cannot have an endless regression of causes. If so, then God must have a cause. What can be said in response? Labels: Who made God?

godztuff: My story Part 3
http://godztuff.blogspot.com/2006/12/my-story-part-3.html
Saturday, December 23, 2006. My story Part 3. I started reading the bible like a sponge, pouring over it, memorising it. I found in its pages the truth I was looking for. After a year my wife and I were working fulltime for our church out in the community, setting up children's clubs, preaching and singing with our band wherever the opportunity came. Now I am a Bible College lecturer having completed my doctorate and I spend my life teaching others what the bible is all about. Give him a try!

Deep as a Puddle: January 2007
http://mrharvey.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Deep as a Puddle. I spend my days doing stuff for Soul Survivor NZ and my church "Blueprint" in Wellington NZ. I am perplexed, amazed, in awe of, and spend a lot of time thinking about this revolutionary called Jesus and what it means to follow Him. On the link below. Its a huge week. Have a great labour weekend! NT Wright once again. 29 January 2007 at 2:14:00 PM NZDT. 29 January 2007 at 11:20:00 PM NZDT. 30 January 2007 at 9:56:00 AM NZDT. 1 February 2007 at 1:44:00 PM NZDT.

Angry and Shallow: February 2007
http://angryandshallow.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 20, 2007. I think they showed that mercy and forgiveness does not have to come only after punishment but can come instead of punishment. The Hindu have a proverb that goes something like this "Its an amazing moment when you let the prisoner free only to find you were the prisoner". I struggle with this.I want to be like them but its not easy.of course they never said it was easy for themselves! The struggle is all part of trying to follow Jesus. Thursday, February 01, 2007.

Angry and Shallow: September 2006
http://angryandshallow.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 12, 2006. I’m sick of the ridiculous stuff that takes our time and energies. Recently a friend of mine asked the question should we refer to ourselves as Jesus followers rather than Christians due to the way the term Christian is perceived . www.mrharvey.blogspot.com. My response is who give a rats arse (Bottom if you are Baptist)! Kapiti Coast, New Zealand. Married to Sue. Two kids. Ive been travelling a bit lately so Ive been a b.

Angry and Shallow: October 2006
http://angryandshallow.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 31, 2006. The death of the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, made world headlines. He died tragically from a Stingray barb leaving his family, and seemingly heaps of adoring fans, devastated. As is so often the case in these situations we Christians managed to make it worse and show how shallow we have become! Why do we constantly need the validation from the rich and the famous? Why does this make us feel better about ourselves? I've got more to say on this at a later stage. A lot of peopl...

Angry and Shallow: April 2007
http://angryandshallow.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2007. It would leave you feeling mad and wanting justice. Well God is the same. He cannot let it go unpunished". Very logical and VERY WRONG! This is actually more common than we think, particularly among no westernised cultures. Jesus himself did this on an umber of occasions including the woman caught in adultery and Zachaeus the tax collector. I believe this wrong belief that God must. He is nothing like us.lets remember that as we try to be more like Him. Tuesday, April 24, 2007.

Angry and Shallow: January 2007
http://angryandshallow.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 26, 2007. I've been unable to get into my site for a week or so hence the delay since my last post. There has been some good news however. The night shelter in Wellington has had a million dollar upgrade so the homeless now get top quality accomodation. Fantastic! I ran a boys home for a number of years and we had a number of times when well meaning christian people would bring around broken cups, plates that were chipped, broken chairs etc and said we should use them.and be grateful!

Angry and Shallow: May 2007
http://angryandshallow.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 10, 2007. Is strong in us. It's wrong for the gang to want and take revenge against the other gang but its ok. For those in power to do so! Those in power use this to raise their profile and stick it to the opposition. From this it is easy to see how we project this onto God and the cross. So if God is not with the powerful and vengeful in this case where is He? I'm not sure but I think its with the hurting, grieving family of the little girl who at her tangi. Kapiti Coast, New Zealand.
