What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means! For he says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has mercy. For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills. (Romans 9:14-18)

Why I struggled with Limited Atonement

Author Article Doctrine

Please read all of this, before you judge me! When I was a young university student, I fell in with a crowd of Calvinists. I am glad I did, because those guys were serious about reading the Bible, and basing their theology on it. During that time, I was introduced to the writings of some…

Brexit Betrayal

I have thought many times, over the last several months, that I should have written something here about Brexit. The problem is that I thought there was too much to say. On June 23rd 2016, in a referendum about the UK’s membership of the European Union, 17.2 million people – just under 52% of those…

Linux Printers and Scanners

In a previous articles on Ubuntu and Mint, I commented on how easy it now was to install network printers on these easy-to-use Linux distros. Dialog boxes opened for easy searching for network printers. But I also noted that I could not get the scanner elements of my multi-function devices to be recognized. However, I…

Athanasian Creed

How many people know the Athanasian Creed today? In the old 1662 Book of Common Prayer, in the Church of England, three creeds were printed, to be collectively read and declared by congregations. There were ther Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed. These were used frequently. The Athanasian Creed is longer, and was not used…

Create Space Is No More

Author Article No Comments

I have enjoyed producing books on the CreateSpace platform over the last several years. However, in recent months, we have watched certain features gradually disappear from CreateSpace, while Amazon expanded its KDP publishing service to include paperbacks, as well as Kindle ebooks. The move might be positive, however, in the way it makes me organize…

Sir Cliff Richard

Cliff’s Four Year Ordeal On Wednesday July 18th, Britain’s best known pop / rock star, Sir Cliff Richard, won his privacy battle against the BBC in the High Court. It was the public and unprovoked nature of the raid – not the necessity of investigating allegations – to which Sir Cliff objected. The background to…

Flac logo

For years, we have all been pretty impressed with mp3s. They gave us access to music in a conveniently small file size that we could download. Software appeared, that could rip CDs into mp3s, so that we could carry our favorite albums on our iPods, or other mp3 players. Gradually, smartphones took over from these…

LibreOffice 6

I have been a fan of LibreOffice for quite a while. In fact, I have used it on Windows since the old days of Sun System's OpenOffice.org. When the Document Foundation forked the project to produce LibreOffice, that was my route, as I found there was a lot more support there. When I took the…

privacies

There is a lot being said and written at the moment about digital privacy. Many people are getting very concerned about the over-use of personal data by companies like Facebook, Google, Twitter etc. Maybe it is time to do something about it. I don't have all the answers. However, here are some of the things…

No Scribus

I am currently hesitant about proclaiming a dislike for a software, because I have recently changed my mind on so many. For example, this post is being prepared on a laptop, which is powered by the Linux Mint operating system, rather than Windows. Open Source software is doing so well. Obviously, high end requirements need…

Lemonade Stand

Take a good look at the criminal masterminds in the photograph. These delinquent children are snubbing their noses, by illegally selling lemonade at a stand – presumably to raise money for some charitable cause or other. Don’t be fooled by how cute these little girls are. Two of them are maliciously selling goods, without a…

Linux Mint 18

I reported on my success with getting Ubuntu Linux 17 on to laptops, and how easy it was to use. Well, I can now report that you have a choice! Linux Mint 18 has proved to be just as easy! Linux Mint 18 has proved to be just as easy as Ubuntu. The boot disc…
