| 10/9/04 - PARAPHRASE OF PSALM 137:1 - 6 By Babylon's waterways, we all got together, and cried about our situation. The instruments, that had brought us such joy in the past, now are useless, now hang idle on tree limbs. I can still hear those awful voices. Babylonian bullies boasting and demanding "Sing us a Song of Zion!" It's not just a song, not some little rhyme to entertain a thick skull. Those are songs for worship in Jerusalem. How can we sing a Song of Zion in a strange land? So, there we were sitting and lamenting. Hoping to be cursed if our memory of Zion, if our memory of YHWH faded. click here to read the King James Version of Psalm 137:1-6 |

| 10/2/04 - PRAYER OF A 4TH CENTURY PERSIAN MARTYR (found in Mark Noll's book Turning Points) Praise to you Lord Jesus: I was a lost sheep and you brought me back; I had strayed from your holy fold, and by the exertions of that most capable of your shepherds, Simeon, you found out where I was. He went out to look for me and he put me with those of your sheep who had been fattened for the slaughter. I was to be a son to the Apostles, a brother to the martyrs who had recieved the garland in the west, a good example to your people in the east. Let them not fall away, let them not lose the true faith - faith in Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the truly Existing, the glorious King, whom all that worship the Holy Trinity, in heaven and on earth, confess and ever will confess, age after age, AMEN. click here to read a chapter from the Message translation of the Holy Bible |
