Welcome.

Welcome to everyone reading through the New Testament in 2007. Each day, there will be a new post for the day's reading. You are invited to share your thoughts about what you've read, by adding comments to that post.

Done!

Well, this blog ended a little sooner than the reading, but if you've been following the plan, you've finished a reading of the New Testament in 2007. Way to go.

If anyone is still showing up hoping against hope for a new post, this is it. If you'd like to make any final comments about the experience, please do so.

While this blog will remain as is to capture the flavor of the experience in 2007, I may create a new blog, copy the existing posts to that blog, and write posts for the readings that weren't posted on before. These will be back-dated so that they sort properly, forming a more or less complete record of commentary on the New Testament. If I do go ahead and do that, I'll put a notice on this blog indicating that I did.

Otherwise, I'll see you on January 1, 2008 at Creation to the Cross.

Revelation.

(To the Beatles' tune, Revolution.)

You say you want a Revelation
Well, you know
We all want to know the Word

You tell me that it's evil too soon
Well, you know
We all live within the world

But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that it will all come out
But you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right

You say it's all about salvation
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan

You ask me for a consolation
Well, you know
Get ready for the Son of Man

But it won't be funny
for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
Ah

ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...

You say you want transformation
Well, you know
We all want to change our head

You're in a bad situation
Well, you know
You better do just what He said

But when you see horses and hear the trumpets sound
You know Final Judgment is coming 'round
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
all right, all right, all right
all right, all right, all right
