God's Secrets Are His Own
The Lord our God has secrets known to no one. We are not accountable for them, but we and our children are accountable forever for all that he has revealed to us, so that we may obey all the terms of these instructions.
Video and the Bible
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's wondered what it would have been like if Jesus Christ had been on Earth during the age of mass media. It's easy imagine that more people would have believed, if only they'd been able to see his miracles on the television news or on the internet.
Unfortunately, three different factors make this seemingly logical statement false. The first two come from the Bible, and third from the world.
First, the Bible tells us in the Gospel of John that
But despite all the miraculous signs Jesus had done, most of the people still did not believe in him. (John 12:37)
Paul writing in Romans, quoting the book of Psalms, said
No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. Romans 3:11
Finally, special affects have progressed to such a stage that it is impossible to believe anything you see with your eyes on a screen. The video below highlights some of ways in which one television show digitally creates an entire world for its actors to inhabit.
YellowBook Videos
The two videos I did for YellowBook in New York are online now.
I like my bio from the site:
Dane Carlson lives and breathes small business ideas and opportunities. While some people watch birds, Dane observes and catalogs unique small businesses. In 2001, while looking for interesting and profitable small business opportunities, he created Dane Carlson's Business Opportunities Weblog to chronicle, catalog and share his collection.
Dane believes that small business entrepreneurship is a lifestyle choice and has published over 18,000 different ideas, opportunities and insights that have inspired thousands of entrepreneurs, inventors and small-scale capitalists towards their dream of running their own business.
Dane also runs a free-range chicken farm just outside of Yosemite National Park in California and has very slow internet access.
Lions and Tigers and Pseudoscorpions, Oh My!
Last night, Angie found a tiny, dead, pseudoscorpion on her pillow.
Pseudoscorpions are generally beneficial to humans since they prey on clothes moth larvae, carpet beetle larvae, booklice, ants, mites, and small flies. They are small and inoffensive, and are rarely seen due to their size.
Although they're beneficial, try telling that to you sleepy wife as she furiously searches the rest of the bed for creepy crawlies.
