I Believe In



I Believe In:
Text: Based on Apostle’s Creed, arranged by Mattaniah Gibson
Music: Slane


I believe in God, Father almighty
Maker of Heaven, earth, landmass and sea
And I believe in Jesus His son
Conceived by the Spirit, born of a virgin

That He was beaten and then crucified
By Pontius Pilate and that He then died
Went down into hell, but there did not stay
And that in triumph He arose the third day

That He then ascended to God in Heaven
There He is seated at His right hand
That one day He will come in glory again
To judge all the living and judge all the dead

I believe in God, the Holy Ghost
The catholic church and communion of saints
The resurrection and forgiveness of sins
The life everlasting. Amen! Amen!

Just what are these "viols" and "timbrels"? Are those cymbals simply "cymbolic" (couldn't resist a pun there) or are they the real deal? More modern translations, such as the NKJV  say they played on &q

"He shall fulfill all my purpose": Thoughts on Donald Trump

I'm no fan of Donald Trump. My "horse in the race", Sen. Rand Paul, has dropped out and hence I am no longer supporting any remaining candidate. However, I still very much take an interest in the way things are shaping up. I would like to live, work, raise a family and die in these United States so I want to know what the outlook for that nation currently is. If you haven't noticed, it ain't too good. Donald J. Trump has won the GOP Primary in South Carolina. And, if my social media feed is any indicator, Christians are freaking out. I understand the freaking out. I'm not too thrilled either but since Rand Paul is no longer running, I'm not overly upset. But I don't get the bashing Trump fans are getting on their faith. Question their logic and reasoning all you want (and you should) but don't question their faith. We are Christians by virtue of our redemption in Jesus Christ. Not whether or not we voted for Donald J. Trump. Donald J
