Still think that was a joke?
Look hard, you'll see it.
The "caves"?
They are carved out of sandstone.
Its a monastery.
See the ladders?
"The almost inaccessible
Dabba Selama monastery
( 13°41.67′N 39°6.03′E)
is assumed to be t
he first monastery established in Ethiopia,
by Saint Frumentius.
(Died c 383).
The intrepid visitor will climb down,
then scramble over narrow ledges along precipices,
and finally climb an overhanging cliff."
These were started being built
(carved)/constructed
while Frumentius was still alive.
Point is?
Ethiopian Christianity
pre-dates
Roman Catholicism.
IT DEVELOPPED
COMPLETELY OUTSIDE OF IT.
(As did others
you never hear about,
ever wonder why?)
When the Europeans
came to Ethiopia?
They already had Christianity.
a while back make any more sense
to you these days?
AMEN!
Yup...
All the logical arguments
and all the evidence in the world
will not do it.
Only the power
of the Holy Spirit
can convince you.
Im just trying to point out
(In my own way)
that it is logical
to believe in a creator
and that
there is
an abundance
of evidence
(more so than ever before).
The cosmologist and
the evolutionary molecular biologist
know it, so I figure you should too.
You might want to
entertain the though of
"Why is that exactly?"
Your mind
already knows
the answer
that your brain
doesn't want
to admit
to your heart.
Trust me it does.
Yeah...read that again.
ring is on his finger.
(Follow the link
and
Stop with the nonsense
already,
he was.)
That record turned 40
the other day.
I had the original
with the three glaring mistakes
in the liner notes.
(The Wikipedia entry
doesn't even mention them)
I wish I would have kept it now.
And this was not
my first record
of his.
That was
for all you:
"You're just a white boy poser
living in the suburbs "
types.
I heard the live version
of Jammin
off that record
when I was a junior
in high school
(81)
at a local head shop.
that used to be located
(No longer there
for a long time now)
right next door
to where I used to work
(Shakes, malts, Sundays, Cones
Banana splits, you name it)
in Plainview,
a neighborhood
in J-town,
East Jefferson County
(Louisville KY
for all practical purposes.)
Our backdoors shared
the same Dumpster pad
lol.
I kid you not.
Needless to say?
I got to be friends
with the manager
of the Wildberry lol.
Go figure lol.
I know
hard to believe etc.
I was already
"indulging"
lets say :-),
well before that.
All that is a Coincidence?
Thats a Lil hard for me to buy into.
Especially these days.
For some friends of mine :-).
AMEN!
He is your offering.
He gave himself up for you.
YUP...
Not many anyway...
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING ON EXACTLY?
Which one are you?
If you are one that is.
The God Of
ENDURANCE...
AMEN!
Smaller circle.
Tighter bonds.
Great advice BTW.
I love you baby.
TTYS honey.
