To Understand my faith
better I have decided to construct these pages.
They are strictly educational, non-commercial and
to foster scholarly discussion. All Bible quotes
are from the New International Version unless
otherwise stated. I use the NIV because while not
a perfect translation, certainly the best
available. All mistakes are my own and if you
differ from my thoughts I welcome your comments. J. Barry O'Connell
