Wood will be taking a massive severance and will also be joined by Roger Draper and Ralph Rimmer.

All 3 are responsible for bringing the governing body to its knees. Staff are currently fleeing like rats leaving a sinking ship good people who are joining rival codes. It is an absolute disgrace.

I am not a fan of the new tax bill that the Republican Congress passed. It will widen the gap between the wealthy and everyone else and increase the likelihood over a decade or so of another crash. And it contains all kinds of unpleasant ancillary provisions, such as the one killing the Affordable Care Act’s mandate. But I don’t buy the argument – voiced by Democratic pundits, political consultants, and even a few economists – that the bill will doom the Republicans to defeat in 2018 and even 2020.

This section of verses that show Jesus' life are focused on His attributes & earthly ministry. We've seen Him as servant, teacher, shepherd, intercessor, and healer. We looked at His attribute of omniscience and now, His authority.

There are two photos because I couldn't decide, lol. How to represent the authority of Jesus over life, in pictorial form? That was a tough one. I settled on the notion of the dock being the long journey of finite earthly life in the flesh, then we come to an... Читать дальше...
