Too cool. You also have some other links at the bottom of you page that I will have to ask about another time. Now for my thoughts. Jesus' last week! How could anyone do this justice. It would be like having a literal "Deadline" to meet and not knowing if you took care of everything before it was due. And how many hints can someone give people about what is about to happen without saying or causing something to not go as planned. What if Jesus came straight out and told Judas... on this day you are going to sell me out, get some money for it and afterwards you are going to be so full of remorse that you are going to commit suicide. And what if he had said that in the garden he would be arrested, tried and crucified in about 12 hours. I don't know how I could have been able to keep the things needed to be kept quiet quiet and the things that needed to be said said. I am one of those people who can always come up with a great answer or comment long after the opportunity is gone. On another note, is there really any good picture of what people were doing when he came to Jerusalem. How let down were people when Jesus showed up on a lowly donkey. Some king, he didn't even have an army! (at least not a mortal one) and what about what was going on in God's current kingdom? After all the angels must have been witnesses to what was going on and about to happen. I sometimes think that the quote "spiritual" aspects of God, heaven, angels, demons, etc. don't ever get brought up and discussed. Sorry for going on so long. I do think that we don't get stretched enough on the spiritual aspects of our faith. Hope this helps somewhat. I just added you to my yahoo page so everytime I go to my home page, there you are!

Now for my thoughts.
Jesus’ last week! How could anyone do this justice. It would be like having a literal “Deadline” to meet and not knowing if you took care of everything before it was due. And how many hints can someone give people about what is about to happen without saying or causing something to not go as planned. What if Jesus came straight out and told Judas… on this day you are going to sell me out, get some money for it and afterwards you are going to be so full of remorse that you are going to commit suicide. And what if he had said that in the garden he would be arrested, tried and crucified in about 12 hours. I don’t know how I could have been able to keep the things needed to be kept quiet quiet and the things that needed to be said said. I am one of those people who can always come up with a great answer or comment long after the opportunity is gone.
