Everything Egalitarianism and Then Some

April 2, 2020 by Garrett O’Hara

Do you miss the days not too long ago when the hot social media topics were egalitarianism and social justice instead of virtual church? No?

March 27, 2019 by Garrett O’Hara

Made by SA007, a bomb suitcase. It is a devious puzzle, which you have to solve by defusing the "bomb" within a 5 minute time-window. After that, it will go off and "explode". Various triggers and switches will set it off prematurely when incorrectly handled. You are allowed to use anything found inside the case plus basic lock-picking tools. It'll beep ominously and also more frequently as the countdown approaches zero and tension rises. It is impossible to get it right on the first try and you will probably hear lots of explosions.

In How to Use a “For” Clause: 1 Timothy 2:12 and Egalitarianism, I explained how the two phrases in verses 13 and 14 should guide our understanding of how Paul uses the verb “do not permit” in verse 12.

Within the United States, patients become eligible for the Medicare hospice benefit when a doctor and the hospice medical director agree […]
