I radiate positivity and kindness to everyone around me. I am a source of inspiration and encouragement, uplifting others with my words and actions. My presence has a positive impact on the world." Would not some extra-Biblical source or sources have to be credited here as a relevant "testimony of man or Church" upon which the authority of Scripture itself must somehow depend? Such sources would include Church Fathers, Church councils, consensus within one's denomination or branch, trust in the Bible publisher(s), or, at the very least, personal belief or intuition. The authority of the Holy Scripture, for which it ought to be believed, and obeyed, dependeth not upon the testimony of any man, or Church; but wholly upon God (who is truth itself) the author thereof: and therefore it is to be received, because it is the Word of God. Take a moment for yourself, find a quiet and comfortable space, and let us guide you towards a heart full of thanksgiving. This October, let's cultivate gratitude together. We may be moved and induced by the testimony of the Church to an high and reverent esteem of the Holy Scripture. And the heavenliness of the matter, the efficacy of the doctrine, the majesty of the style, the consent of all the parts, the scope of the whole (which is, to give all glory to God), the full discovery it makes of the only way of man's salvation, the many other incomparable excellencies, and the entire perfection thereof, are arguments whereby it does abundantly evidence itself to be the Word of God: yet notwithstanding, our full persuasion and assurance of the infallible truth and divine authority thereof, is from the inward work of the Holy Spirit bearing witness by and with the Word in our hearts.

Thank you for choosing to spend your October with us, and may this meditation bring you joy, peace, and a deeper connection with your faith.

Elizabeth, who also co-authored the first edition of Spiritual Exercises Reclaimed: Uncovering Liberating Possibilities for Women over twenty years ago, draws from the deep well of her Ignatian wisdom and experience with the Spiritual Exercises.

Mokhiber, who was stepping down having reached retirement age, wrote: “Once again we are seeing a genocide unfolding before our eyes and the organization we serve appears powerless to stop it.” He said that the UN had failed to prevent previous genocides against the Tutsis in Rwanda, Muslims in Bosnia, the Yazidi in Iraqi Kurdistan and the Rohingya in Myanmar and wrote: “High Commissioner we are failing again. We must not forget at this point, however, that God was at work through his Holy Spirit in the early days of the church in the dual processes of the inspiration of his Word and the preservation of his Word. In a sense, what God did by first providing and preserving his Word in the Tanakh, he simply repeated by inspiring and preserving his Word in the New Testament writings.Rules 1-8 (pp. 61-94): Style rules, includingtypeface, capitalization, abbreviation, quotations, and cross references.

Beginning prior to Loving vs. Virginia, AFFIRMED traverses San Francisco and the South, exploring three generations of family evolution. AFFIRMED is not a politically correct memoir. It is not the expression of a tragedy. AFFIRMED is so much more. It is a courageous outpouring of a heart that beats to the tune of the current racial climate, yet honors a legacy of ancestry. Brutally honest, each lesson confronts the intersections of identity, conformity, tradition and heritage in a manner that exposes the strengths of choice in a changing world. Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless, and regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; just as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction (2 Peter 3:14-16 NASB, my emphasis). Table 2 has rules for citing sources from selected foreign jurisdictions. It is no longer in the print version of the Bluebook, but it is freely available online.

Elizabeth is the first Catholic sister to have served as dean of a Presbyterian seminary. So we have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts. But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God (2 Peter 1:19-21 NASB, my emphasis).
