I asked our son if he was part of a study group in law school....and he said....no....and that he didn't think that they were that helpful....and he graduated near the top of his class. My wife and I are fans of the late 70's television show....The Paper Chase. I purchased the DVD series and I think that we have only two episodes left in the show that ran for four years. One of the key elements from the 1973 film of the same name and the TV show was that the main characters....1Ls....first year law students....formed a study group....where they each concentrated on a class.
I am a little frustrated at times at the lack of serious and concerted and regular conversations with other Christians on the nearness and the coming and the great joy but trepidation of the return or our Lord and Savior and King. There was a scene from the great John Wayne film....The Searchers....where...I think Wayne's name was Ethan....where Ethan....in the wilderness of the desert....met up with an old Indian chief and friend....who spoke very little understandable English....but when he first met with Ethan....he shouted a couple of times....Hallelujah!....Hallelujah!Oh that I had that bravado to shout....Hallelujah....when meeting up with Chrisitan friends!
The reason for this post is that if any readers out there....obviously local friends....who believe and hope as I do that Jesus is near....because the pain and terror and horror in this world is just too vexing....and it is only going to get worse....much worse....if any out there want to meet....as a study group in a way....and bless and extoll our Savior....while studying and researching God's Word as to the Second Coming....please let me know!
