8. The obnoxious theologian in me asks: WHICH ONE???
PS - We methodists sang "A Mighty Fortress" as our opening hymn. I couldn't help but smile at "the prince of darkness grim", thinking of you-know-who! :)

And a happy Counter-Reformation to our Catholic friends! :)

2. A Mighty Fortress is Our God
1. A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he amid the flood
of mortal ills prevaling.
For still our ancient foe
doth seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not his equal.

2. Did we in our own strength confide,
our striving would be losing,
were not the right man on our side,
the man of God's own choosing.
Dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is he;
Lord Sabbaoth, his name,
from age to age the same,
and he must win the battle.

5. Happy reformation to you, too!!
Also Reconciliation Sunday, and for some, it was All Soul's Sunday, though I'll be doing that one next week.

And, of course, Happy All Hallow's Eve.

Happy Reformation Day to all you Protestants out there!
