*sigh* right now i'm in my dorm and not fellowship because for some strange reason they didn't meet... ie i didn't see them, not that i knew fellowship was cancelled or anything... i just didn't see them at the agreed location... ok, next time please give me a clue when you wanna do that about 30 after 7, because not all of us are right-on-time type of ppl!

tv's broken... like stated sometime before... so, *sniff* no watching of nets and bucks today, or twolves and lakers on sunday... lakers better not win... it's a very low-chance of occurring wish, but... man...

you'd be surprised how different guys and girls write on their online not-so-personal journals... girls, it's just.... bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam... guys, well, take a look @mine for instance...

oh yeah... it's good friday... jesus died this early morning by asphyxiation leading to respiratory acidosis to cardiac arrest, ~1980 years back... i dunno what else to say about it... well, if it weren't for his gracious act, we'd all literally go to hell.
i think i can give you the whole gruesome details about why he died, cause i have a book, which medically does look at why he died, and there's huge evidence that states he died, instead of faking it.
but what motivated him? what would motivate him to agree to endure such punishment?
"Frankly, I don't think a typical person would have done it. But Jesus knew what was coming, and he was willing to go through it, because this was the only way he could redeem us- by serving as our substitute and paying the death penalty that we deserve because of our rebellion against God. That was his whole mission of coming to earth. So when you ask what motivated him, well... I suppose the answer can be summed up in one word- and that would be love."
