Show Notes:

 

Higher Ed. Crisis:

• We are in the middle of a higher education bubble that is soon going to be followed by a crash
• Conservative Christian parents have thought much more about their children’s college than their grade-school
• College is seen as too much of a savior is not worth all the money that many colleges are offering
• Education is not our savior
• An educational reformation in America is not going to happen until Christian parents stop feeding the beast

 

The Devil’s Dictionary:

• Written by Ambrose Bierce
• Although he is not a Christian, he knows how to float like a butterfly and sting like a bee
• This is a satiric dictionary that will greatly help your writing
• You should read dictionaries

 

Hamartia

• Looking at the word in Colossians
• Hamartia is found in Colossians 1:14, 2:11, 2:12
• Spiritual baptism and physical baptism are related
• Spiritual circumcision and physical baptism are related
• What then holds us back from saying that there is a connection with physical circumcision and physical baptism
