“If you ever deny that there are two (2) in heaven, namely ...the Father and the Son..., then you are by Divine definition both a ...LIAR... and ...ANTICHRIST..., and SADLY an ADVOCATE or a VICTIM of false teachings, philosophies of men, adulteration and misinterpretation of carefully selected verses of the Holy scriptures”

“Observing the adults around me when Susie died, I noticed for the first time but not the last that survivors make one of two choices. Either the survivor caves in for the long term, or she decides to keep moving, as if living after the death of a loved one placed her on the kind of moving sidewalk you see in airports and shopping malls. Standing upright and holding the handrails would deliver her, at some future point, back into her life in progress. This is a decision that might not be made consciously. My family’s survivors were one day startled to find that we had decided to keep moving.”
