Inspiring words - the entropic universe - enjoy your day
by Pterist inthe entropic universeby the lovely sister on february 21, 2008 0 commentsonce when i was in 9th grade physical science class the vocabulary word entropy was introduced to me.
as clear as day i can still remember in our text book a photograph of a teenage girls room a complete and total mess next to the paragraph explaining the relationship between entropy and work.
it explained that entropy is a natural state and the universe has a tendency toward entropy.

The deuterocanonical book of Wisdom
by Pterist inhaving done a little research on the book of wisdom, i decided to read it very morning as part of my daily spiritual reading.
the greek period and it's influence tested the jewish community and yet after many objections the people of god acquired a new awareness of their own path.. at first i felt a little uneasy as the wisdom of god is presented in the feminine gender.
however the recognised book of proverbs (chapter 8) does the same.

New-Earth V Old-Earth Creation
by Pterist inin his book "peril in paradise", dr. mark whorton, (who holds a phd in aerospace engineering from the georgia institute of technology), puts forward some very convincing arguments for "old-earth", as he compares the "perfect pardise paradigm" to the "perfect purpose paradigm" proposed by creationists.
he shows how entropy, death, pain and suffering already existed before the "fall".. a good read for jws that shows this mortal decaying earth, may not be their "eternal" home.. can be read in the amazon cloud reader.. http://www.amazon.com/peril-paradise-theology-science-earth/dp/0830857346/ref=tmm_pap_title_0?ie=utf8&qid=1377778808&sr=1-3.

Spiritual Feeding Ephesians 4
by Pterist inwhat is the purpose of spiritual feeding from the gifts to mankind from christ in the brotherhood ?
ephesians 4:11-16to build up the body of christians, that all members are matured in the knowledge of christ....thus we become the perfect man upon reaching maturity and sharing the fullness of christ.when are the weeds and wheat separated in christendom ?
when the true christians reach maturity...they already are mature before the gathering....another argument against the role of a spiritual program for the brotherhood in 1919 or whatever, true christians are gathered because they are already mature.
