Christian Directory and Christian Entrepreneur

-
In my continued consolidation of my blogs, yesterday I was able to pick up articles, which I consider important from "A Father's Three Aces" and "Anything Goes".

Today, as I continue with organizing my thoughts, I revisited two more blogs, "Christian Directory" and "Christian Entrepreneur". Christian Directory is an ambitious project aimed for young pastors and fathers.  This is not an easy task for the scope of the literature is vast covering Christian ethics, Christian economics, Christian ecclesiastics, and Christian politics. I am not sure if I still have the time to read them all and write my summaries and reflection of them. Imagine reading 2,335 pages on top of all my current tasks as an Academic Dean, as well as my duty to prepare for my class lectures.

Turning to Christian Entrepreneur, my feeling is mixed. There is this feeling of loneliness and sense of satisfaction. Lonely, because I did not make it. Satisfied, because of the experience I gained. I realized that necessity forced me to enter into a field that I would not dare to consider in my wildest dream if everything in my life was just normal. Difficult situation pressured me to take a risk in order for my kids to survive. Such risk-taking stretched and compelled me to grow. Such growth would never happen if I stayed within my comfort zone.

My review of Christian Entrepreneur also surprised me knowing that nine years ago, I already had this initial conception about the relationship between business and spirituality, and business and theology. Moreover, I also find my study of network marketing valuable.

Five Precepts of the Modern Mind

-
While doing my devotion this morning, I stumbled with an interesting section in the book  Thinking. Loving. Doing. A Call to Glorify God with Heart and Mind. I am now on the 2nd chapter. I am reading the article written by R. Albert Mohler Jr., The Way the World Thinks: Meeting the Natural Mind in the Mirror and in the Marketplace. I just want to share that interesting section on pages 61 to 62.   Here is its excerpt: In order to understand better the modern mind, consider these five precepts. First, the modern mind is characterized by postmodern anti-realism. There are people in American society who are not sure that what we are talking about is even real. They argue that the terms of morality—statements about what is right and wrong—are merely a language game. The second precept is moral relativism . Although most of the people we know do not actually hold to anti-realism, it has filtered down into the culture as moral relativism. Most unregenerate Americans today are...

The Special Duties of Husbands to their Wives

-
Fulfill your duties to your wife in order to avoid the following unhappy results: Failure of your wife to fulfill her duties towards you Such will cause you much affliction She will be bitter towards you in the end Summary of your Duties as Christian Husbands: You are responsible to undertake the government of your family including your wife. This ability consists: In holiness and spiritual wisdom. An ungodly, irreligious man is both a stranger and an enemy to the most important part of family-government. In due acquaintance with the works of your calling. He that is utterly unacquainted with the members of his family, will be very unfit to govern them. He must be acquainted both with the common temper and infirmities of mankind, that he may know how much is to be borne with, and also with the particular temper, and faults, and virtues of those whom he is to govern.

No One is Above the Law

-
No one is above the law, and that includes even the government. If you see a government violating the moral law, what do you think will happen? Will the Supreme Lawgiver keep silent as His law is being trampled by human governments? One example of such violation is now being done by the government of Australia by moving hard left . The policymakers are either blinded by their ideology or they intentionally take for granted the long-term destructive consequences of such tax policy. They are not aware that by violating God’s law on private property, they are actually committing economic suicide. How many governments in the world are following the same course? May God forbid that the Philippine government will choose the same path!
