Christos Kurdos: November 2007
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Tuesday, November 27, 2007. There's no 'I' in worship . . .oh crap! Biblically, worship is about responding in the right way. In such a self-centred world, where self-fulfilment and self-satisfaction drive our activities and determine our responses. We need to remember that worship is primarily about God. If we are not careful, worship becomes about us. I didn't feel it tonight". I didn't get anything out of worship today". Tuesday, November 27, 2007. This would p...

Christos Kurdos: December 2007
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Sunday, December 23, 2007. Our God is an AWESOME God. The NT equivalent to. Times in the NT. It means 'to revere', 'to be devout', 'to worship'. Matt 15:9 / Mark 7:7 / Acts 16:14]. This is another tie between OT and NT, creating continuity. Worship as reverence of God. Our God is an AWESOME God! Sunday, December 23, 2007. Friday, December 14, 2007. Our 3rd biblical view on worship is. The Hebrew word is. The object of fear is God. Friday, December 14, 2007. This i...

Christos Kurdos: May 2008
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Tuesday, May 27, 2008. Tells of the remarkable faith of a Roman officer, but an emphasis is all given to Jesus' character. His desire to meet people in their own space. At the drop of a hat He was willing to stop what He was doing, change direction and go to a complete strangers house. Meeting with and spending time with the Romans was almost as bad as associating with the sick, prostitutes and tax collectors, but this was Jesus' way. Jesus wasn't like Robin.

Christos Kurdos: Keeping it real
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2008/06/keeping-it-real.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Thursday, June 12, 2008. We can find four qualities within Jesus' communication that accomplishes His ability to make Himself accessible to everyone. Everyone loves stories and Jesus' teachings are full of kind Samaritans. Jesus always offered truths in small bite-sized pieces. Even with this simplicity, the pharisees never understood and even His disciples (who lived with Jesus for 3 years listening, watching and learning) missed the point. Jesus kept it real.

Christos Kurdos: Why can't we all just get along?
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2011/05/why-cant-we-all-just-get-along.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Sunday, May 29, 2011. Why can't we all just get along? This February saw Rob Bell's publisher release a short video promo for his new book. It was intended to stir conversation about the book and played up controversial questions Bell wrestled with in its pages. Almost imediately, prominent Christian leaders took to the web, condemning the book and Bell himself. After John Piper famously tweeted,. Why would non-believers want to be like us when all they see is our...

Christos Kurdos: March 2008
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Friday, March 28, 2008. Once in the promised land and when the temple was constructed, the temple-worship was a continuation of the tabernacle-worship. When Jerusalem was attacked and the temple destroyed, the Isrealites were forced to make changes to the way they worship. With no sanctuary, no cult, no focus point, the Isrealites had to find some other way. They gave this book the central role, its laws and scriptures THE. This is the end of my study on WORSHIP.

Christos Kurdos: Looking for blessings in all the wrong places
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2011/06/looking-for-blessings-in-all-wrong.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Tuesday, June 14, 2011. Looking for blessings in all the wrong places. After reading Tim Keller's book. I've been think a lot more about idolatry. Now, when you say "Idol" or "false god" many people think of ancient. Primative people worshiping baals and asherahs, or offering sacrifices to statues made out of wood or stone. But the truth is idols are everywhere in 2011. So than thousands of years ago. God created us to be. God created us to be. We all have them.

Christos Kurdos: Silence isn't golden
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2008/05/silence-isnt-golden.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Thursday, May 22, 2008. This issue of attentiveness isn't just a problem when dealing with other people. God. Can also feel the brunt of our self- centeredness. I know personally, I have caught myself singing worship songs on a Sunday. Night, but my brain has been thinking about what to eat for supper, or whether to have tea or coffee after the meeting, or what I've got to do at work in the morning! Singing these very serious words like. I surrender all to you".

Christos Kurdos: July 2007
http://snickett.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
The blog is BACK! Here are my ramblings. Sunday, July 22, 2007. So, here's Gideon attempting to assess the situation. Gideon and the 'Isrealite army' were camped on the slopes of mount Gilboa in an area called Harod ['the fountain of trembling']. Across the plain to the north-west on the hill of Moreh was the massive Midianite army. You have too many men". The Midianites outnumbered the Isrealites 4 to 1. How could Gideon possibly have too many men? Troops. Imagine what he was feeling now 22'000. In the ...
