“I have more on my mind to express;
I am full like the full moon.” – Sirach 39.12
Welcome, it is my hope that you will find some subject of interest within this humble blog. Among these posts, one can read my various interactions with the Holy Scriptures, Church History, and Arthurian fun.
The Holy Writ will often include subjects on the book of Judges and St. Jame’s letter. As well as various sermons that I have written. I will often also post my interaction with the deuterocanonical (Apocryphal) books, notably Tobit.
In Church History department, you’ll mostly see entries on the Patristics and Historical Theology type stuff to a much lesser degree.
Besides the Holy Scriptures and Theology I post my interactions with King Arthur and his grand Knights of the Round Table.
At times, I’ve also elected to pop up some random more creative writings of mine. Nothing there should probably be taken too seriously, but it’s on here nevertheless.
Please feel free to comment, I always tried to reply readily. I am always interested in knowing when I am orthodox or when I have entered into the realm of supposed heresy.

Hey, just ran across your blog and love it. What are your thoughts on the Nag Hammadi library as they pertain to Christianity? Have you studied it much? Thanks
I should have responded to this a while ago. I haven’t done any in-depth study with the Nag Hammadi or really any Gnostic Literature. As for its relations with Christianity, well I would stick with the Church Fathers. it has some interesting historical footnotes and I’m told that the Gospel of Thomas could contain some agrapha (a term for alleged sayings of Jesus, found in ancient Christian writings, not included in the canonical Gospels), but these are with a gnostic bent.
At some point I should look more into it, but I just haven’t gotten the desire too yet.
How do I cite you in a reference? Would you like your name listed? Credentials? I’m citing your explanation of Victorinus of Pettau.
Here’s an example that should work, although this is Turabian style.
Blog entries or comments may be cited in running text (“In a comment posted to the blog of “A Knight of the Word” on May 5, 2013, . . .”) instead of in a note, and they are commonly omitted from a bibliography.

(If you wish to include an author, using my online name “Le Bel Inconnu” is also perfectly acceptable according to this site http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide.html which says “There is no need to add pseud. after an apparently fictitious or informal name.”)
I hope that helps.
Hello, hopefully you still monitor this blog! I noticed in your post about the Books of Meqabyan you were interested in some journal papers by R. Cowley, if you hit me up on the provided email I’d be more than happy to send you them.
Hey! I just saw this (I’ll admit it’s been a little long between posts), but I will certainly send you an email.
