Full Color Bible

Standard Publishing has put out a Full-Color Bible. This looks like the old Rainbow Study Bible to me, but who knows... It's similar to what I've been doing for years.

Road ID

Speaking of Trucking, since the (idiot) doctors diagnosed me with Epilepsy (which I don't have) and ruined my life/career, I am now the proud wearer of an ID bracelet. And what other ID bracelet would a trucker wear, but a RoadID:



Ok, this isn't ACTUALLY what my ID has on it, but mine is red. I got an email from Edward over at RoadID today offering me a Christmas discount if I wanted to buy a new one. Perhaps in pink...?

Poster: Highway Signs

Being a trucker (well, "former" - but when you do something for your entire adult life you tend to identify with it even when you're not associated with it anymore...) and a Christian this poster made me smile:



It reminded me a gospel presentation that John MacArthur had on his website years ago that was very similar.

Christianity, Cults & Religions

Get a pamphlet to put in your Bible to have ready to share with that cultist at your door, or to witness to someone who interrupts you while you're reading or to use as a jumping off point for comparing their god to yours.

Comes in a wall chart version as well. Great for a Sunday School room.

Wow!

Busy day. I was looking for symbols on the 12 disciples and got drawn into Wordpress, themes, widgets, blogs, LibraryThing.com and all sorts of interesting things. Busy day.

I found this interesting site regarding the symbols of the 12 disciples, but this one was laid out even better and was more concise.

Funny how things come of early morning dreams... I had it in my head about the symbolism of the twelve tribes of Israel - a sort of coat of arms type deal - and whether the twelve apostles had similar symbols. Like if Peter were a fisherman and had a fish symbol and say Zebulun's symbol was a ship or Reuben's symbol was a man and water...

Sometimes it's just fun to speculate.

Reading Plan

Trying out a concept something along the lines of Precept Ministries. It looks better when you print it, but the filename didn't transfer over and the header didn't seem to stretch with the page...

I was going to sign up for a coin forum and needed an avatar, so I was looking for the Gordon badge/crest to put on my family tartan when low and behold I come across this guy's: Solia Gratia post and was pleasantly surprised to find that he must be a Calvinist...? Well, I went on and made my own:








Do you think I should go tell him that he's a pretender and that we are the original title holders to that land and that castle? ;o)

UPDATE: Well, it turns out that my little coin is a "love token" this website shows a photo that looks very similar to my coin; this website has a lot of great images; this website has a chatelaine and talks about the most popular print being Engravers Old English; and this cute little website has the little ditty about "there was a crooked man who walked a crooked mile" and what all that has to do with love tokens, and last but not least is the lovetokensociety site. I guess I should have named my daughter Geneva Nicole... ;o)
