Wesleyology: Unlikely Places
http://wesleyanrudy.blogspot.com/2011/05/unlikely-places.html
Conversing with the founders of Methodism on various matters of theology. It is well known that John Wesley had an experience. In which he found his heart "strangely warmed" in the evening of May 24, 1738 in a simple building on Aldersgate Street in London. Less well known is that earlier in the day Wesley attended St. Paul's Cathedral, whose beauty and grandeur you can see on a very minuscule scale here. (Do a Google Image search for "St. Paul's Cathedral, London". To see other views.). Listening to Sma...

Wesleyology: July 2011

Conversing with the founders of Methodism on various matters of theology. A Wesleyan Appropriation of the Cry of Dereliction - Part 4. In concluding this series on exploring a Wesleyan interpretation of the cry of dereliction, we will pick up where we left off the last post, which appealed to Wesley's belief of Christ's human will as submissive to the will of God. This, in my view, leads naturally to what I see as the richest pastoral payoff for this passage. Sound like Christ on the cross? It may just b...

Wesleyology: Athanasius & Chrysostom on Cry of Dereliction
http://wesleyanrudy.blogspot.com/2011/03/athanasius-chrysostom-on-cry-of.html
Conversing with the founders of Methodism on various matters of theology. Athanasius and Chrysostom on Cry of Dereliction. To counter the suggestion that at the cross when Jesus cried, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? We have the idea of a split Trinity, I have written in a couple of posts on the matter, which you can read here. Athanasius: For behold when He says, "Why hast Thou forsaken Me? The Father shewed that He was ever and even then in Him. The confession from a Roman centurion, no less,.

It's all Greek (and Hebrew...and Aramaic...and...): Genesis 1:1-13
http://begadkephat.blogspot.com/2010/02/genesis-11-13.html
It's all Greek (and Hebrew.and Aramaic.and.). Wednesday, February 10, 2010. Before I begin, I want to point out that I am still very much a student. I could be wrong. I'm tossing out my ideas here to hopefully inspire discussion – or at least make you think a little. Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong. One thing I do know is that God honors our search for the truth, though we may wander along dead ends from time to time. So that said, here are some things I've learned from the first 13 verses of Genesis.

Homeward Bound: Last Full Day in DC
http://homewardboundfamily.blogspot.com/2012/06/last-full-day-in-dc.html
Just some everyday moments from our homeschooling family. Wednesday, June 20, 2012. Last Full Day in DC. So far on our visit to Washington DC, we had kept to a busy schedule and seen lots of historical and amazing sights. But our last day we wanted to slow it down a bit. We started by "sleeping in" and enjoying a big breakfast down in the hotel restaurant. Then, since it was Sunday, we headed off to church. We decided to attend worship at St. John's Episcopal Church. The front of the church building.

Wesleyology: Sparse posting...working on a project...
http://wesleyanrudy.blogspot.com/2011/05/sparse-postingworking-on-project.html
Conversing with the founders of Methodism on various matters of theology. Sparse posting.working on a project. I apologize for the sparse posting as of recent. My publishing energies at this point are focusing on a paper presentation I'm working on for the MWRC Colloquium in mid-June, where my topic is on Christology and the death of Jesus in Wesleyan theology. In particular, I'm focusing on the interpretation of Jesus' cry of dereliction ("My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Psalm 22 (a): Remix.

It's all Greek (and Hebrew...and Aramaic...and...): Matthew 5:43-48
http://begadkephat.blogspot.com/2010/01/matthew-543-48.html
It's all Greek (and Hebrew.and Aramaic.and.). Thursday, January 21, 2010. In my posting of the briefs on prayer that I did last semester, somehow I managed to miss the final one. I suspect it had something to do with the madness that comes around finals time. So here it is, only a month or so late. Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? Because it changes us. We cannot retain life-dam...

It's all Greek (and Hebrew...and Aramaic...and...): February 2009
http://begadkephat.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
It's all Greek (and Hebrew.and Aramaic.and.). Monday, February 16, 2009. And the first week is over. Sunday, we did homework. Well, you've got to do homework sometime. Tuesday, February 3, 2009. Am I a fastidious spelling snob? I like spelling things correctly. I get irritated at bad grammar. But I certainly don't go as far as these people. Oh, sorry. Doughnut. Monday, February 2, 2009. A little, tiny break. I've also started studying for my Greek Competency Exam, which is on Thursday. I'm a little s...
