Life has changed a lot for me in the last few days. I cant really get into it. I just wanted to say thanks for all the support and prayers. It means a lot to me. Now its just a few more days until i get to be home. I can truely thank God more than ever for that now.

I though it was interesting. I know its not the most perfect work of english but I though you might find it interesting.
One of the more controversial subjects in the Bible is justification. Justification is an instantaneous legal act of God in which he (1) thinks of our sins as forgiven and Christ’s righteousness as belonging to us, and (2) Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1101929629056136252004-12-01T11:17:00.000-08:002004-12-01T11:33:49.056-08:00I know I have not posted for a while. Well I have been busy.
Here are a few thinks I have concluded in my time away.
Your worldview effects every thing you do.
Your interpritation of Scripture formulates your worldviews in one way or another.
People with opposing worldviews can not agree on the basic fundamentals which make up their worldview and thus can not really have a productive Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1097445653283800212004-10-10T15:00:00.000-07:002004-10-10T15:00:53.283-07:00In the “forum” held on October 8th many issues were brought up. One of them dealt with a woman’s right to choose. The person that brought up this issue made a comparison that really concerns me. I don’t understand how a vasectomy and an abortion can be compared in terms of rights. One is the right to prevent pregnancies and one is the “right” to terminate life. We all have the right to Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1097217528059778102004-10-07T23:34:00.000-07:002004-10-07T23:38:48.060-07:00Well I figure I should probably start posting things up again. The summer was amazing. I can only summarize it like that. My faith grew by leaps and bounds. I infused with passion and vision. It was simply amazing. Being back at luther is defiantly different than last year. So many things have changed inside of me or become more clear.
A byproduct of this summer is a renewed concern for Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1086214962201641852004-06-02T15:20:00.000-07:002004-06-02T15:22:42.200-07:00So I am at the SMR in Colorado and going thru the STP.

I am sorry for being a slacker and not posting thing recently. Life just has a way of making me so busy.
Its that time of year when everything starts to get weird. Not that life is not weird before the last month of school but it just gets a lot weirder. Friends do things that you dont expect them to, emotions do things you dont want them to, and teacher give work you dont need to do.

Yeah you heard it hear first. This past week I have gotten less than 28 hours of sleep and pretty much worked non stop. What was I doing you might ask. Well lets see: three revision of a proposal for e cubed, fundraising letters for my summer job, an 8 page organic chemistry paper, a bio paper on hiv infection processes, a bio test, and some spanish hw. This week finished up Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1082617627324726702004-04-21T23:59:00.000-07:002004-04-22T00:15:34.013-07:00Tired, that is all I am evermore.
Tonight in Bible study we learned that our heart should always be glad when its filled with the Lord. So I should not be hopping for the weekend cause I should be happy now. But after 5:30 on Friday I don't have any more papers for the semester. I think that's something to lookforwad too. OR maybe I am just too tired all the time to really understand the Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1082521078826272722004-04-20T21:09:00.000-07:002004-04-20T21:22:04.340-07:00So yeah I am official nerd. I went to the Library just to get some books. There having a book sale and I bought 5 really cool books. Organic chemistry 2nd ed. (1942), 1879 ed. of The life and Travels of General Grant, Microbial ecology and some other cool ones. So yeah that means that I am an official nerd I guess.

Sorry. I am working at it. I have been pretty busy. like getting 5 hours of sleep and stuff like that. All my friends are being weird lately. Am I the only normal one left? K I have to go to bed.

I will hopefully post some stuff in the coming week.
As far as the homosexuality things goes. I think it is a sin. That is all I am going to say about it. I would be more than happy to talk to you about it though. I just dont think this is the best way to do that.

The preface took care of that.
He starts off the book by talking about the common ideas about lust. (that is what the book is about) He explains the myths and biology behind lust or nature very well. He is very clear with the distinction between natural feelings and lust. He also talksNickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1076364563966778862004-02-09T13:48:00.000-08:002004-02-09T14:12:06.000-08:00So school is definitely back in session. My load this semester is much easier than last. I am very thankful for that. I set a new personal record for book costs this semester. I spent $7.55 including tax on all my books for this semester. I though that was pretty cool.
I am also starting some new research with vops. They are the pathogenic proteins that are emitted by the type three Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03386540146621630530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316420.post-1076047044413139442004-02-05T21:49:00.000-08:002004-02-05T21:59:46.340-08:00Well second semester has stared. Its not too bad at all. No hw yet and that is great. Got some reading to do but that is about it. Getting excited about this weekend. There is a leadership retreat with the navigators at a church near UNI. It should be a blast. Its so great to have all the my friends back form j-term. Sad to know that one is not coming back for a while though.
