Man's relationship to God in creation was based on works. What Adam failed to achieve, Christ, the second Adam, succeeded in achieving. Ultimately the only way one can be justified is by works. (R.C.Sproul) Works! Works! A man gets to heaven by works? I would as soon think of climbing to the moon on a rope of sand! (George Whitefield) With the wolves you cannot be too severe. With the weak sheep you cannot be too gentle.” (Martin Luther on false teachers)

Promptings

I suppose that what prompted me to 'blog' was the ongoing realization that I have, in my possession, 'tons' of material that has been gleaned from 'tons' of websites, and blogs, that I would like many friends and acquaintances to see, hear, and read. It is just not possible for me to give each of those people a 'hard-copy' of the material I so desperately wish to share.
Now, lest anyone might suggest that I am trying to 'evangelize', or 'propagandize', or 'proseletize' anyone, let me be quick to point out that that is precisely the case. For that I do not apologize. You, and I mean You, have that same opportunity, as I see it. So, why not? Ultimately, the issue is Truth, which I do not expect that any of us has a 'corner' on. The best we can do is establish a foundation for 'truth' and build on that foundation. More, later, on what that foundation should be. I bet you can guess!
