What is your wishlist??? You want me to give you a copy of my paper for church planting a couple of years ago….”What is the Irreducible Eccliesological Minimum?” Was a good paper, you can add that to your library and really begin to build something.
Hey, throw me some Theological topics….I have a paper to write and need a topic…something contrevorsial….dealing with Sin or the Person of Christ, or transmission of the soul, or even Image stuff.
Check on Smitty’s blog on Numbers 25…interesting.
Dude send me the paper and I will read it :) You are too kind.
You should write on our sin nature.
