    ‘breaking open the same word of God and finding it feeds us all according to our earthly needs and god given personalities’.

    Ought to be emblazoned over the door of every church.

      Oh, I knew someone was going to get picky about other Archangels.

      I deliberately said something about them being named in the bible. Raphael sneaks in because of Tobit.

      I think if you want to bicker you’ve a better case with Uriel than Azrael.

      Azrael is better know in Islam and Sikhism (oddly) than in Christianity. Uriel meanwhile gets a singsong in the Creation. However, Raphael, Gabriel and Michael have got a bit more of a secure biblical foundation.

  • Sermon – 21 August 2005

    This morning, one of Scotland?s church leaders is quoted in the papers as saying this. ‘?They? (and he is talking about radical Islamists) have been welcomed as brothers and have treated us as enemies. If we are their enemies they should have nothing to do with us, but they don?t. They speak out against us…

  • Bloggers' Box

    I’ve added a new box on the left hand menu for links to Scottish Episcopal Bloggers. I claim to be the Mother of All Scottish Episcopal Bloggers having started two years ago. Anyone want to dispute that claim?
