A New Inner Relish: Christian Motivation in the Thought of Jonathan Edwards
I think the question "Why should I do right?" (or perhaps "What is the best motivation to to right?") is one of the most important questions we can ask in our process of sanctification. The opening verses of 1 Cor 13 should be enough to convince us of that. And I'm convinced that most Christians haven't come to a rigorously scriptural answer. Why should I do right?

I admit it; sometimes I give up and just use...
Pittsburgh Bishop Is Ousted – NYTimes.com
Picked this up from the New York Times, an AP story. Bishop Duncan, who led the Pittsburgh diocese for 11 years, is a leader in a national network of theological conservatives who are breaking away from the liberal denomination in a dispute over Scripture.[From National Briefing - Religion - Pittsburgh Bishop Is Ousted - NYTimes.com] They got it right!
