It's interesting that in this country, people who consider themselves "special" Christians - i.e. evangelicals, do most everything the opposite of what Christ taught and in fact, openly deny his commands. The essence of much of Jesus' teachings has to do with the fact that whatever else happens, God will accept people into his kingdom only if they have fed the hungry, comforted the sick, visited those in prison, etc. There's nothing there about belief, or church, or capitalism...Lowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15305748075301453010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-50388369604692973872016-07-25T14:48:44.497-04:002016-07-25T14:48:44.497-04:00What a wonderful collection!What a wonderful collection!RedPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06980471119229896414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-53018311394973569742016-07-25T10:49:48.506-04:002016-07-25T10:49:48.506-04:00Wonder if the water feature helps with humidity.
