BILBO'S JOURNEY
Discovering the Hidden Meaning of "The Hobbit". Joseph Pearce goes beyond the dragons, dwarves, and elves, and discovers the surprisingly deep meaning of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic novel "The Hobbit". Bilbo's quest to find and slay the dragon Smaug is a riveting tale of daring and heroism, but as renowned Tolkien scholar Joseph Pearce shows, it is not simply Bilbo's journey, it is our journey as well. It is the Christian journey of self-sacrifice out of love for others, and abandonment to Divine Providence and Grace. Paperback. 120 pages.

How to change brake pads
 Useful. He fails to mention about the brake fluid. I thought that you may need to get some or open the cap for it in order to push the piston back. At least that is what I thought ( I do take constructive correction and respect input for any who comment) and be sure you don't place the C clamp directly on the piston. You don't want to chip the piston. My father-in-law used a piece of wood.

Where did the Bible come from?

At the last place I worked a friend of mine who is a sincere Protestant Christian spoke with me charitably about certain theological aspects of belief in Jesus Christ and He used what he considered the ultimate authority which was the Bible for everything. Then I wondered in my mind, ' He seems to be an educated friend I wonder how he will respond to this question?' Where did the Bible come from? After I asked this question being an honest man he admitted that he did not know. I understand being ignorant of a great many things that I place my faith in. It is probably a vice of our modern society in America today since I am sure that a great many or majority of us do not even understand exactly how our government works, yet we seem to trust it. (Maybe in terms of government we trust an established body governed by interested men too well.) But concerning something that I know to be completely benevolent and in accord with the direction of my salvation ,which is a greater concern and should be more highly valued, I wonder why I at least should not have a background in understanding where I received the information that I have acquired that tells me how to live and why I live.

I am not here to bash any other religion, but I find it very unreasonable to acquire a map of where I am supposed to go without any validation as to its authority and where it came from. If I did this at sea and found the map was fictitious I would find myself stranded on the waters of my negligent intuition.

I do not imply that the Bible is not 100% true, but where it came from does factor in things like the historical significance or how the human authors guided by the Holy Spirit meant their writings to be interpreted, and why some books were included when at the same time period others were not. These are serious implications that alter perception of the writings. Wouldn't it be important to strive to perceive what the author's intended? What perception the Lord of all the writings intended? Who were the custodians who protected the canon? And if so why are not the custodians protected by the Holy Spirit like before?

The Gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.

  I have always enjoyed this video about the bible and the history of it and if anyone may be curious about more I strongly suggest trying Catholicscomehome.org which I am sure would have more as well.
