"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."
- John Bunyan

Today I watched Mr. Bean's Holiday and The Last Samurai.
The Last Samurai is now definitely on my favorite movies list. It was amazing.

Watched Juno tonight --it was good, I was just not expecting some of the sexual content and cursing --but overall, a good movie --and it doesn't glorify teen pregnancy--it shows a pretty realistic picture of it.

I watched Charlie Bartlett tonight and I adored it.
It was an excellent indie social commentary. Robert Downy Jr...man I love this guy!
An excellent, amusing, heartbreaking comedy. Gotta love those!

Watched Kung Fu Panda with my younger cousins today. Best part was that my mom paid so it was essentially free. XD I thought it was good and I liked Tai Lung, especially the break out sequence. However seeing it in a cinema full of kids was not ideal, especially with some little brat kicking my chair.
Incidentally, I'm probably going to see it again tomorrow with some friends.

I just got back from watching Hancock.
I liked it! The sfx were really amazing.
It was surprisingly dark and deep at certain moments.
All in all, I was entertained and impressed.

Saw Wall*E last week. Excellent, of course. Also just saw a really interesting movie called Party Monster. It's really dark and really strange, but good.

Ordinary People - I...I have no words for how amazing this movie is, and I thank whoever it was that linked me to a scene from it; I would never have found out about this otherwise. It's incredibly well-acted, and deals with a very sombre subject matter (death, guilt, and questions of love), but in such a way that leaves you crying, yet filled with hope. I also appreciated how sparing they were about background music; in many cases, music would have almost ruined the emotion of the scene. I also was intrigued by the psychiatrist character, because I have an interest in psychology myself, and it was immensely interesting to see his approach to a boy who feels guilty over his brother's death. I'd say that Ordinary People more than deserved the four awards it got.
The Patriot - Pretty intense war movie, but very good all the same. I think I'd equate it with Last Samurai in terms of the amount of violence and blood. There was even one part where I closed my eyes so I wouldn't have to see what was happening - and I do that very rarely when watching movies. The cast was also full of faces I was familiar with. My jaw dropped completely out of my head when Jason Isaacs came trotting up on a horse, and I was equally surprised when I realized that Gabriel was played by Heath Ledger. And it's interesting, but the part I cried the most for wasn't any of the many deaths throughout the movie. No, it was the part when Sarah, Benjamin's youngest daughter, went running after him crying, "Papa, don't leave! I'll say anything you want me to, just don't leave!" T_T That sounded so much like Elysia Hughes from FMA....

Just watched Another Perfect Stranger....Pretty good for an indie film....probably some of the most thought provoking dialogue about a relationship with Jesus that was ever written by man......Though, I must admit it'd almost make a better radio show as it was pretty long and dialogue driven....

Just watched Midnight Run. I was caught by surprise by how good it was. It's been a long time since a movie sucked me in so hard that I was actually tense during the right scenes. I'm usually pretty detached from my films even if I love 'em.

I finally managed to get to the theater to see Prince Caspian. Oh man, I loved that movie so much! 8D It was practically perfect. It stayed true to the soul of the book, yet wasn't afraid to go off on tangents and explore various things to make it a completely new experience. Everything looked beautiful, too; the only thing I didn't like was the SusanXCaspian romance.

All in all, I liked the film a lot though!

"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."

Gabriel. This is a dark Aussie flick.
I loved it. It's basically about arcs (arc angels) and fallen (demons) and Purgatory on Earth.
There was very little cheese, decent acting, sets, soundtrack - all great.
It was very intense, raw, dark and gritty, but also very human too.
There was some messed up theology but some things they got right too.
I went in with no expectations and was blown away.
The movie was made for just under $200,000 Australian which buys you almost half of a Hummer (Humvee for USians).
Amazing. For what it set out to accomplish this movie is very good.
See it now!
(Will help if you enjoyed The Crow, Equilibrium, Van Helsing, Constantine, Dark City - those sort of movies).
8/10

Yeah, 28 Weeks Later really struck a chord in me, and is probably my favorite zombie movie to date. I think the reason I liked it so much was the way the film contrasted bioweapons and serious bioethics quandaries, cold rationalism and the serious moral lapses brought on by the radical reduction of human persons into a subhuman state, false and distorted security, and distinctly technological terrors waiting in the wings when that tenuous security is broken.GrubbTheFragger (post: 1243412) wrote:28 weeks later again? Like that movie much? XD
Yes, I thought they were very good myself. They were having a closing out sale in the rental selection of my local supermarket, so I crept along the aisles in aimless search of movies with good brains and delicious bargains to feast (my eyes) upon. When all was said and done, I bought 10 great movies for about 45 dollars, including Shaun of the Dead, The Ring, and 28 Weeks Later. I'm afraid I haven't seen or heard of Gabriel yet. What's it about?Warrior 4 Jesus wrote:Both good movies.
I think you may like 'Gabriel' GhostontheNet.
Give it a go.
