Gal 4: 9-10
"Now that you know God, why are you turning again to these feeble principles, to enlsave yourself to them once more?
You are keeping dedicated days months, seasons and years."

What is Paul saying here? What dedicated days is he referring to?

Gal 4:8 (the preceding verse)
"Previously, before you knew God, you were the slaves of those who are by nature not gods?"

Who are those by nature not gods?

Gal 4:8-10
"Previously, before you knew God, you were the slaves of those who are by nature not gods.
Now that you know God, why are you turning back to these feeble principles [the principles of those by nature not gods] to enslave yourself to them [those by nature not gods] once more.
You are keeping [the] dedicated days months seasons and years [of those by nature not gods]."

What exactly is Paul rebuking in this scripture?

My hubby had spinal surgery last week. He should have been out of the hospital but there were minor complications and unexpected pain. I have been struggling with how to handle this situation... His mom has taken over. First she's been introducing me as his "girlfriend" to the doctors and physical therapists... So they have been giving her all his post op info. Its as if I am not there and invisible. His brother had to tell one of them to talk to ME at which point MOM huffed off. Then she completely screwed up his contact info, using hers as his address and even went so far as to discuss payments and insurance with them!! Because of her "mistake" I may end up with the entire hospital bill not being covered... now we all know in order to leave the hospital you have to show some independence, even just getting up alone... well... I walked in yesterday and she was FEEDING him... like a baby!!! She left me alone with him for a little while and he was a totally different...

Pick an answer:

A- lack of doctrinal union among 33000 protestant denominations, meaning that they were not sure of whether they were preaching the whole truth

B- they read the writings of the first christians (Church Fathers, which are well respected by protestants) and found that what they believe today is not what the first Christians believed, but what the Catholic Church believes

C- They found that, per the Bible, the best form of worship (as practised by the first Christians) should not be a sermon for people but a true thanksgiving sacrifice to God called the breaking of the bread (eucharist in greek means thanksgiving)

D- They've found that Christ is really present in the Eucharist

E- They've found that they had been deceived about what the Catholic Church believes and teaches

F- All of the above

while making the payment on the HOUSE, the concern from ANY candidate other than RON PAUL?

He endorses the sound economic policy of returning to the gold standard, commidity backed currency that way our $ Dollar will hold its value, Sound GOOD?...


Then doing away with taxes...

well actually just the income tax, that way nothing changes for the Corporations earning huge profits,

but would return about 60% of the income of every individual in America, white collar and blue collar and we would NOT have to work 3-4 months out of the year to pay our hard earned $ that only goes to the interest we pay on....

I own neither website and the material I have contributed to the former is all my own work. As the sole author, am I allowed to use my own work as I see fit or is the owner of the website the article appears on entitled to restrict me from having the article posted on another website because it has now become his property as part of the website? The work was done on a voluntary basis and was not specifically requested by him.

I'm trying to help come up with a baby name for this family. I came up with their last baby name: Ross. And the dad is Matt. So they want their second son to also have the same pattern. Whichever names in the list muster the most approval will get 10 points.
(e.g. Bill, Will, Dill)

YELLOW/ORANGE RESULTS.
Its AWFUL! i really dont know what to do! but im DEFO going to ditch the whole idea of going blonde! i think im just going to stay brunette - save the hassle!

Right now I'm feeling very depressed and no matter what I do I can't seem to get my mind off of the fact that my life sucks.
Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to feel better and take my mind off of things? I have an appointment on Thursday with a psychiatrist so hopefully he can help me in some way, but I don't know what to do with myself in the meantime.
