Ubuntu, Bible, Other Stuff

This is a geeky post… but I need to do this every once in a while. I’m becoming less geek over the last few years but I still enjoy geeky stuff every now and then. Take the new Ubuntu it is wonderful! I upgraded last night and it only interacted with me a few times. The upgrade was smooth and flawless on my HP tx2110us tablet laptop. Once it booted into Ubuntu for the first time it was snazzy! The response time when you click on an app was much faster than yesterday! I didn’t time it but still blew me away with how fast it was.

Up next on my blog post is a very family friendly program called OpenDNS. It is a life saver for filtering your network traffic. It is easy to set up, it has detailed instructions on configuring your router/pc and works like a champ! Please, if you have a family you need a filter for the internet!

Pass Over – Resurrection Sunday

Writing by Chad on Saturday, 3 of April , 2010 at 10:02 pm

Of late I’ve been studying the season we are in, more now than ever. I’ve always believed in Passover as the proper way to celebrate the Lord’s Supper. Not necessarily a heaven or hell kinda thing. Yet, there are aspects to this season that do trouble me.

This is what the Apostle Paul said about the Lord’s Supper

I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread. Consider the people of Israel: are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar? What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?”

~ Paul 1 Corinthians 10:15-22 [ESV]

Easter, in case you haven’t figured out what I’m trying to say, is a pagan holiday. The name Easter is derived from a goddess of fertility or a sex goddess. Boy in this day and time we live where sex has saturated every aspect of life then why not saturated the church too?

Pardon my scathing attitude toward this distraction on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ but enough is just about enough! It is time to destroy those things that detract and restore those things that bring us closer to Jesus!

No doubt someone will ask if the bunny has brought enough candy or if my kids got to see the bunny or how many eggs the found, it never fails. No doubt I’ll have someone ask us to come to their place and hunt eggs with my kids but no, it is my choice and I chose another route – this route hasn’t brought revival… I think if I invite them to prayer meeting they would probably chose to do something else than to seek God. I may be wrong, I pray so anyway.

Be Blessed!
