"Sometimes we don't present the Gospel well enough for the non-elect to reject it."
- John MacArthur
"In the total expanse of the human life, there is not a single square inch of which Christ, who alone is sovereign, does not declare, 'That is mine'."
- Abraham Kuyper
"God the great Creator of all things doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things, from the greatest even to the least, by His most wise and holy providence, according to His infallible foreknowledge and the free and immutable counsel of His own will, to the praise of the glory of His wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy."
- Westminister Confession of Faith (Chapter 5, Section 1)
"The wisdom of God has found a way for the love of God to deliver sinners from the wrath of God all the while upholding the righteousness of God!!"
- John Piper
"Grace is the pleasure of God to magnify the worth of God by giving sinners the right and power to delight in God without obscuring the glory of God!"
-John Piper
"The very One from Whom we need to be saved, is the One Who has saved us."
- R.C. Sproul
"All of Christian life is ceaseless worship of God the Father, through the mediatorship of God the Son, by the indwelling power of God the Spirit, doing what God commands in Scripture, not doing what God forbids in Scripture, in culturally contextualized ways, for the furtherance of the Gospel, when both gathered for adoration, and scattered for action, in joyous response to God's glorious grace."
- Mark Driscoll
"Believers do not pray with the view of informing God about things unknown to Him, or of exciting Him to do His duty, or of urging Him as though He were reluctant. On the contrary, they pray in order that they may arouse themselves to seek Him, that they may exercise their faith in meditating on His promises, that they may relieve themselves from their anxieties by pouring them into His bosom; in a word, that they may declare that from Him alone they hope and expect, both for themselves and for others, all good things."
- Martin Luther
"I have to tell you first that I am ready to die. I have put my affairs in order. Your supreme weapon is killing. My supreme weapon is dying, because when you kill me, people all over Romania will read my books and believe on the God that I preach - even more than they do now."
- Dr. Joseph Ton, the exiled Romanian pastor (quoted by James Montgomery Boice)
"The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin in it to condemn the whole world."

Kekkaishi volumes 4 through 6: a deeper plot is starting to show itself
Blame! volume 1: just checking it out. I found it vague and confusing but because of the grim dystopian setting I'll likely read the rest of the series.

Series I'm currently reading: Kitchen Princess and One Piece. Yes, these are both current series, and it'll take like FOREVER to get through One Piece...
But hey, so far the story's pretty good...I recently finished book 12 (and now to wait for my brother to purchase the next two. He gladly lets me read them, once he's finished of course XD But hey, it's fair and it works)

Blade of the Immortal vol. 15-17
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure vol. 68
Vinland Saga vol. 3
I've heard Blade of the Immortal's experiment arc isn't all that popular, but I enjoyed it. "Enjoyed" used loosely. JoJo's Stone Ocean is still going strong too, might bump the discussion thread for it.
Vinland Saga is entertaining enough, though not too compelling. Good for what ales ya.

.............I started reading Flame of Recca again. o_O
I read it first in 7th grade. It was the first manga series I ever read the whole way through, at 300+ chapters. Yes, it's trite shounen fight manga, yes, it has a tournament, but wow, I feel SO much nostalgia. I really loved some of the character (Koganei and Fuuko and Joker!) and the lovely art with pretty long eyelashes.
This is a total throwback to my childhood, which I've been feeling really disconnected from recently. I really needed this. It's like therapy.

It's interesting to read these and cross-reference then with xxxHolic.

I really love the art in this series. No way I'm buying it until it's for sure completed, but still. Pretty to look at.

Valkyrie Profile Volumes 1-3
Eh, video game manga. I haven't played the game, though, so this is new to me.
This was a real shame, because his plot arcs that don't involve tournaments are so much more worthwhile. At least this tournament doesn't end up stereotypically. YYH has a pretty strange ending, as he ended it abruptly because of arguments with his editors.

it just totally failed me. by such an entirely contrived plot device to reenter yet another stereotypical tourney arc mode. oh sure it was a twist and unexpected but I thought the series could redeem itself with some epic new plotage but noooooooo Yuusuke just -had- to go and ruin that with his stupidity. that twist could have been something else, anything else, even predictable, but now w/ -another- tournament rearing its ugly head.... guuuhhhhh... -__-|||

The Third Vol. 1
Special A Vol. 2
Nosatsu Junkie Vol. 1
These are really good, I have throughly enjoyed them, though they are far from over. The Third sucked me in from the cover art, and the story is really good plus you get a few good laughs.
Special A is definitely Shojo but it's not there at first... some Shojo manga you open the front page read a few pages in an OMGEE! It's romance! *_* It's more like those rival love pairings, the girl is the guys rival and she is always trying to beat him, he is (of course) always better than her. But it's very funny.
I found the funniest out of all three of these was Nosatsu Junkie, about two models, one is already a pro and the other can't seem to land any jobs because she has a freaky smile. The successful one has a secret.. I won't spoil it for you though X3 I suggest you read it.. it's very funny!

I have been made a happy reader. The most recent chapter has validated every offhand hint, every strange allusion, every apparent plothole (almost). Either the manga-ka has had all of this planned since nearly the beginning or he is good at faking it. Right now I have no idea where the manga will go, but it's obvious it will be much more than the monsters versus monsters drama I had feared.

Yu Yu Hakusho
After figuring out where I last left off, I continued with this.
I liked the Chapter Black arc for the most part.
I'm not quite sure what to think of this last arc however. It seemed obviously intended to be the final arc from the start with the way he was wrapping things up(Hiei and Kurama's pasts, Yusuke's heritage, etc), but the fact that he went to the trouble of setting up three countries and their leaders and then seemingly saying "To heck with it, let's have a tournament" makes me wonder if he had something else in mind to do but decided to short-circuit it since he realized the series was going to end...
Yeah, I saw that too.

Yeah, I saw that too.

Dominion: Conflict , Vol. 1
Shirow Masamune (the guy responsible for "Appleseed") revisits his older "Dominion" series (better known in the US as "Dominion Tank Police") in a smiliar but 'alternative universe' storyline. Good stuff.

Largo: "Well Ed, good to see ya. Guess I gotta beat the crap out of you now."
Jamie Hyneman: "It's just another lovely day at the bomb range. Birds are singing, rabbits are hopping about, and soon there's going to be a big explosion."

Maokun: Ninjas or Pirates? (Vikings are not a valid answer, sorry)
EricTheFred: Vikings are always a valid answer.

W Juliet volumes 13 and 14
I had forgotten how funny this series could be. So much random destruction.

catching up on Ouran.
Character and plot development... I know a lot of people really don't like that Hatori is actually developing things. I think some things were great (the Hitachiins' growth, for example), but Haruhi's behaviour has been quite ooc lately.

For a video game-based manga, this isn't bad.
It's interesting enough to keep reading anyway.

Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?

"The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say."
-Fellowship of the Ring, by JRR Tolkien

Just finished reading through Hanna Z. O.o That is a weird series. I only get the basic concept of it, beyond that it's like Excel Saga or FLCL. 
"Please stand down, I don't want meaningless bloodshed!" chaos-Xenosaga

"If I knew that, I wouldn't be suffering." - Hakuro, Utawarerumono
"Dirty thoughts are bad!" Mahoro, Mahoromatic
Help my dragons to grow, please!

Not your usual shonen, though it still doesn't feel as though it has perfectly captured its own style. Certain aspects of the series appeal to me, but so far the execution hasn't focused on those. Just so long as there are fewer chapters with lots of memories and everyone crying I'll be happy.
