continued from "A Dialogue on Trinity"Madeleine: You are right, Dad! Also, I can see that the three processors would still be parts of the one; so, the analogy does fail.Clark: You saw it well.Madeleine: So, we lack an analogy?Clark: Well, there may be a few natural ones like space which has three dimensions (Length, Breadth, Depth), time has three divisions (Past, Present, Future), persons have three references (First person, Second person, Third person), and the universe has three realities (Space, Time, Matter).Madeleine: Water has three...
The Promise of the Light of Life
“I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” John 8:12 The dim bulb flickered unpredictably as Head Constable Karamchand Hans dozed off on his chair at the Ferozepur police station. A vile and violent man, he had been very furious with his mom that evening, because she paid no heed to his threatenings to not allow the missionaries.

On the Ground
The night drops curtains all around,The wind blows roughly all around,I've toppled and dropped Your candleOn the ground!The day ran lightly, gleeful, and sound,The heart followed after round and round,It slipped and lost its handleOn the ground!Much gold through labor, we all have found,Much gold through passion, we all have drowned,We've failed to stick our sandalOn the ground!------The night dropped its curtains all around,The wind blew so roughly all around,But stronger burnt Your candleOn Your ground!The day dragged on heavily with furious...
The Inner Conflict - Thoughts on Psychology
From Lectures on Psychology An important field of psychological research is the biology of behavior, also variously called physiological psychology, psychobiology, or biopsychology, whatever.The theological problem is that the Bible doesn't accept that moral choices are physiologically determined. Determinism may form the basis of animal behavior, but not of man who is held morally responsible for his actions. Though, materialists may disagree, the argument connects to the factor of difference, namely the spirituality of man. The inner conflict...

While through this renegade world of sin, suffering, and shame,I walk, I run, I hover, and crawl,I pray You never keep me at bay,Though I stagger, I wander, I wriggle, and fall;For, what man of himself can ever make a claim -I'm covered with sin, with agony, and shame!Lord, heal me forever, remove my despair,Open my eyes to see Your glory -Not this nakedness that drives me insane.Cover me, Savior, remove my disgrace,Grant me asylum under the shadow of Your Name!© Domenic Marbaniang, July 16, 2...

Forthcoming in Satyadoot Magazine, Itarsi, August 2010संसार में मनुष्य हर बहुमूल्यक बात की सुरक्षा का उपाय करता है। घर के अलमारियॉ, संदूकें, दरवाजें, एवं खिडकियॉ तालों के तले सुरक्षित पाएं जाते ही हैं, साथ ही साथ कुछ लोग अधिक सुरक्षा के लिए पहरेदारों को भी नियुक्त कर देते हैं, क्योंकि हर व्यसक्ति जानता है कि इस संसार में उसकी सुरक्षा की जिम्मेीदारी प्रथमत: उसी पर ही हैं, और यह संसार एक दुष्टक लोक है। लेकिन भौतिक वस्तुतओं से भी अधिक मूल्यंवान मनुष्या के कुछ ऐसी बातें हैं जिनकी सुरक्षा करने में यदी वह विफल हो जाएं तो वह सब कुछ खो देता हैं। इसीलिए...
