So if there are any OT freaks out there (all three of us) give us some discussion.Scott Osbornehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15079200129870604728noreply@blogger.comBlogger91100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9063500503047385151.post-83571767938612446262007-10-30T21:27:00.000-05:002007-10-31T22:17:18.409-05:00To Participate or Not To

Yes, this is quite strange, but my main thought concerns the nature of Halloween. Is the believer participating in the table of demons (1 Cor 10. 18-22) when he (or she for you TNIV freaks) participates in Halloween. Or is Halloween a Christian liberty issue or a command issue--we are not to participate in the table of demons. There are several issues in this discussion so I will list a few.(1

Yes, getting really crazy with three blogs in just over a week. This posting deals with the 'parallels', 'analogies', or 'types' of Christ in the person of Isaac. As I have been going through the Abrahamic material my eye caught the numerous, clear parallels of Christ and Isaac. Here are just some I found:(1) God tells Abraham to take 'your son', 'your only son', the 'son you love'--near exact

Yes, the Osborne 'curse' has been lifted--just kidding, but we are rejoicing in the Lord at the birth of our new son, Owen Michael. He was born June 1 and was a good 8.3lbs and 19 1/2" long. And yes, everybody shut up about the Nike hat already!! The girls love him and are going to make him tough quickly.

Yea, we are back up and running after a long overdue hiatus. Things are a little crazy around the Osborne household lately; however, we had a very interesting conversation last week at church surrounding Cain and Abel. The question being this: why did God accept Abel's sacrifice over Cain's? There are several 'legitimate' options that have been proposed.(1) It was a blood sacrifice. This is

1- I cannot go without mentioning something...where's all the love for Melo? Come on just because he slapped a guy and ran like a scared schoolgirl... Hey for me, I glad he ran so that he did not throw any more punches and be out even more games!2- Next, I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas! In keeping with the blog title, I have been overwhelmed with Luke 1-2 this Christmas. Luke's primary

Well enough of Melo and the 'Cuse, and now onto another topic: What is the center of the entire Bible? I should have started with this post and then done the center of the OT, but I am not that organized. So what is the center of the Bible? Some say Christ, others Kingdom, other New Creation. Obviously this post cannot exhaustively detail the previously stated centers, but I do want to bring up a

Interesting NBA match-up that featured two 'Cuse players last evening: Melo vs Hakim. Interestingly both the were the leading scorers for their respective clubs. Hakim's team won the game but Carmelo walked away with 37, 9, and 7. Carmelo continues to tear it up. Go Cuse boys!!

The most challenging thought to me in regards to the OT relates to the center, the mitte. There will be many more posts related to this topic, but this opening post will address one issue--what is the significance of the Abrahamic Covenant? What function does it play in the overall message of the Bible? Those who know me are not surprised at all that the first post deals with Abraham. But my
