"Sometimes we don't present the Gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject it."
- John MacArthur

"In the total expanse of the human life, there is not a single square inch of which Christ, who alone is sovereign, does not declare, 'That is mine'."
- Abraham Kuyper

"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."
- Westminister Confession of Faith (Chapter 5, Section 1)

"The wisdom of God has found a way for the love of God to deliver sinners from the wrath of God all the while upholding the righteousness of God!!"
- John Piper

"Grace is the pleasure of God to magnify the worth of God by giving sinners the right and power to delight in God without obscuring the glory of God!"
-John Piper

"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."
- R.C. Sproul

"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll

"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther

"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."
- Dr. Joseph Ton, the exiled Romanian pastor (quoted by James Montgomery Boice)

"The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin in it to condemn the whole world."
- John Bunyan

If I could try any occupation for one week, I think I'd run a pool hall. Pool is one of my top ten things to do, and I think it would be interesting to see what it takes to run one. I was actually talking to my boss on Saturday about it, and he thought it coud fly. It wouldn't be just a place where you come and have a few beers and shoot a rack, but more of a club.

Ahhh... The tables...

Moving on to JadeFox's question, if I could go anywhere in the world, I'd go to Greece. (Most of) My (immediate) family are Orthodox Christians, so it'd be nice to see the churches over there, plus some friends of mine were born there and could act as tour guides. Moreover, it's beautiful.

(1.) Would you ever dare attempt to eat that questionable South African delicacy that floats by on the accurately discriptive name of 'mopani worms'?

(2.) How about that other questionable South African delicacy, biltong, which basically is a type of jerky?

(3.) Or howabout bôkkoms, another SA delicacy best described as fish jerky?

Okay, enough with the gross food questions.

(4.) What languages other than English can you speak, and what languages would you love to learn?

(5.) What countries have you visited and what would you like to visit?

(6.) What movies would you love to see dissapear into a space-time wormhole?

(7.) What do you get when you travel through space?

(8.) If you were a superhero, what would your powers be? (plummeting to earth does not count).

(9.) What would you wear on the last day of earth's existence (knowing this, obviously).

(10.) Is your tongue coated?

Sorry, I'm on a strict "no invertabrate" diet. Health reasons, you understand.

(2.) How about that other questionable South African delicacy, biltong, which basically is a type of jerky?

I'm always up for jerky.

Okay, enough with the gross food questions.

(4.) What languages other than English can you speak, and what languages would you love to learn?

I speak a smidgen of Spanish and Greek, along with a hint of Mole.

(5.) What countries have you visited and what would you like to visit?

I'd love to visit the Mediterranian countries.

(6.) What movies would you love to see dissapear into a space-time wormhole?

Most of the gore-fests. I'm not terribly squeamish, but that much blood, for no real reason, disturbs me.

(7.) What do you get when you travel through space?

Personally, I get lost.

(8.) If you were a superhero, what would your powers be? (plummeting to earth does not count).

Telekinesis.

(9.) What would you wear on the last day of earth's existence (knowing this, obviously).

What else? A sandwich board sign proclaiming "The END is NIGH!!!"

(10.) Is your tongue coated?

The following is the unabridged list of the places I've visited outside of the states:

.

In the US, I've been to Virginia; NYC; Wichita, Kansas; and Oklahoma City. Naturally, I've been to a few places in Texas (Allen, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, and San Angelo) besides the cities I've lived in.


If I could be anyone for a day, I'd be me but with lighter skin. As is, I can pass as almost anything but Caucasian. Arab, Greek, Hispanic, Black, it all depends on how much time I've spent in the sun recently. I'd like to see how people treat me if I was part of the "master" race.

Sorry it took so long to answer.

For a Klondike Bar, I'd have my youngest sister dress up as Chiyo-Chan.

I think one of the most influential Christian leaders in my life is the previous director of the local Wesley Foundation. He helped to drive home the point that we do get to be human.

Because I took so long, you get a free answer:

I'm the third of six children, and the genders alternate.
