60 Theses on Real Integrity in the Anglican Church
Some Theses for you all.
- Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Truth (John 14:6), spoke truth that He received from His Father (John 8:40), and prays for His followers to be sanctified in that same truth (John 17:17).
- When our Lord said "Let your yes be yes and your no be no" (Matt. 5:37) He was calling us to integrity in the way that we speak in all things.
- To do otherwise is to be a mouthpiece for the devil (Matt. 5:37) who is the Father of Lies (John 8:44).
- "Bearing false witness" (Exod. 20:16) is not the only way that we speak falsely.
- As Christians we are urged by Jesus through His apostle to speak the truth to each other (Eph. 4:25).
- We are also called to "put away falsehood" (Eph. 4:25).
- Finding clever ways to lie does not avoid the sin, it only compounds it.
- Weasel words are just that - words from a weasel.
- Rhetorical questions are just another way of making assertions and to hide behind them is to only increase any dishonesty.
- It is sometimes as much a lie to be silent as it is to speak. This is particularly true when by your silence you intend to suggest that you might be communicating something other than what you actually think.
- The refusal to affirm a truth (particularly when it is a truth about God) is often just another way of denying it, but without taking responsibility for your denial. This is therefore a double dishonesty which only compounds the deceit.
- Liars are therefore often identified by what they refuse to affirm rather than by what they openly deny.
- While all Christians must take care over their speech (James 3:10), leaders in the church are especially responsible for the way they speak (James 3:1).
- The responsibility of those who lead in the church is, not least, to promulgate the truths of God from the word of God in the Scriptures (2Tim. 2:15), just as the Church in which they serve upholds and supports the truth (1Tim 3:15).
- Those who lead in the Church and yet do not teach the truth are rightly called false teachers and we are to be warned away from them (2Peter 2:1-2).
- The recent House of Bishops Pastoral Guidance on Same Sex Marriage from the Church of England does not fully serve the truth since it contains contradictions.
- The Scriptures consistently proscribe same-sex acts.
- To state that "18. ... Those same sex couples who choose to marry should be welcomed into the life of the worshipping community and not be subjected to questioning about their lifestyle." is to do a great disservice to sinners who ought to be called to repentance and thus forgiveness.
- It also contradicts the later statement that "26. Getting married to someone of the same sex would, however, clearly be at variance with the teaching of the Church of England."
- To get married to someone of the same sex is not just to be at variance with the teaching of the Church of England but with the teaching of our Lord Himself (Mark 10:6-9)
- To not call an unrepentant sinner to repentance is to demonstrate contempt for them.
- Either that, or to fear men more than God.
- Our Lord tells us it is damnable to encourage that which leads to damnation (Matt. 18:6; 1Cor. 6:9-11)
- Jesus urges us through His apostle to expel those who are persitently unrepentant in their sexual immorality (1Cor. 5:11) in the hope that they may be brought to repentance.
- It is therefore simply wrong and inconsistent to state "15. ... the Church of England should not exclude from its fellowship those lay peope [sic.] of gay or lesbian orientation who, in conscience, were unable to accept that a life of sexual abstinence was required of them and who, instead, chose to enter into a faithful, committed sexually active relationship."
- It would be ludicrous to state " ... the Church of England should not exclude from its fellowship those married lay people attracted to someone other than their spouse who, in conscience, were unable to accept that a life of fidelity was required of them and who, instead, chose to enter into a faithful, committed sexually active relationship with that person."
- The Bishops are to be applauded when they state "23. At ordination clergy make a declaration that they will endeavour to fashion their own life and that of their household 'according to the way of Christ' that they may be 'a pattern and example to Christ's people'. "
- It is widely acknowledged that there are many clergy who do not live this way, nor think that they should.
- Many of those clergy make no secret about their situation.
- It is therefore obvious that there are bishops who refuse to discipline such clergy.
- If discipline has not been exacted in the past, why should we expect any difference in the future?
- When the Bishops state "25. The Church of England will continue to place a high value on theological exploration and debate that is conducted with integrity. That is why Church of England clergy are able to argue for a change in its teaching on marriage and human sexuality, while at the same time being required to fashion their lives consistently with that teaching." their statement assumes that the Scriptures are unclear upon the question of sexual ethics and that the matter is open for debate.
- The church has held to the Scriptures and their position on marriage for 2,000 years. Variations fom this position are a novelty.
- To argue that the Church has recently changed its position on divorce and remarriage does nothing other than further indict the Church of guilt in departing from the Scriptures.
- There are those who allow themselves to be ordained into leadership in the Church who do not believe what the Scriptures say on this and other matters.
- Despite this they are happy to receive a stipend or salary.
- This is an act of great dishonesty and lacking in integrity.
- There are those who ordain them who know what they believe.
- They are therefore complicit in their dishonesty.
- The call to leaders in the church who experience same-sex attraction, (as with all Christians in that position) is to live a chaste life.
- It is not "denying"or "supressing" your sexuality to live a chaste life but, rather, to acknowledge it and to ask for the Spirit's assistance in seeking to be godly.
- To deny that sin is actually sin is to speak untruth (1John 1:8).
- It is therefore not an act of "integrity" for leaders in the Church to persist in advocacy of or engagement in sexual immorality.
- The opposite of concealing sin is not to be openly proud about it but to confess it (1John 1:9; Prov. 28:13).
- Such honest confession will receive mercy (1John 1:9; Prov. 28:13).
- The right response of "integrity" from those who advocate for same-sex blessings and marriage in the Church is not to seek to act against the Church and its teaching but to repent or to seek another place to teach their falsehood.
- It is wrong for a Bishop in the Church to advocate that proponents of same-sex blessings and marriage should establish "facts on the ground".
- Such a man not only promotes sin and rebellion but also acts directly against his episcopal colleagues by contradicting them.
- Such a man ought to have the integrity to resign.
- His colleagues ought to have the courage to urge him to resign.
- In a similar way when someone is to be consecrated a bishop despite the fact that they deny Christian truth and the teaching of the Church they ought to have the integrity to resign.
- It would be ridiculous to suggest that an unashamed advocate of Pepsi and only Pepsi should be given a seat on the board of Coca Cola Corporation or that they should retain such a seat once their preference was clearly stated and understood.
- Nevertheless, there are Bishops who have been Bishops for far too long and some who ought never to become Bishops.
- To promise to uphold the teaching of the church when you have previously publicly denied it is to appear to lie unless you have provided clear unequivocable evidence that you have changed your position. Such inconsistency ought not to exist in those who are leaders in the Church.
- When someone appears to be inconsistent in what they say, to simpy "rely on their word" is not least an act of self-deception in which only one person is actually deceived.
- It is also to enable that deception.
- Christian leaders ought therefore not to be involved in the public endorsement, let alone the public ordination or consecration of such people.
- More than that, there is a clear responsibility on the part of other leaders to speak out publicy against such an act of inconsistency.
- We ought never to forget that our Lord absolutely does tell us the truth when He says "Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life." (John 5:24). This is a great promise to all who recognise they have sinned but who then turn in repentance and faith to the Lord Jesus Christ.
- It is the sincere desire and prayer of all those in the Church who love the truth that all in the Church would love the truth.

As I consider the actions of the Council I am reminded of the story "The Ugly Americans" where building edifices was considered a better use of aid money than something ugly like improving the breed of chickens.

Of course our City Council doesn't want to deal with the "real issues" like infrastructure; it is an election year and four of them will be out of office by the end of the year. This is a lame duck City Council

Is that lame duck, or just "lame"? What a disappointment. Why can't we get pot-hole-fillers instead of these pipedreamers? Don't we have anybody who wants to do the work?

I wish that the standard for removing criticism of city hall from this forum was the same as the standard for removing criticism of the president.

Simon Barnes says taking responsibility is now kids stuff for an all-action hero
HOW much more shall we dump on to the shoulders of Andrew Flintoff? He has become a modern Job, tested not by means of misfortune but responsibility. Give him more, and then more. Now we'll see what he's really made of. It is a dismaying change for a big daft lad whose most pronounced characteristic was a cheery fecklessness.
Flintoff is England's best bowler, England's best batsman and England's captain. So he picked up still more responsibility when his second child was born. Alas, he couldn't be there, he had too much responsibility in India.

Tax shield Approach
· Cash Flows from operations
· Cash flows of the working capital requirements
· Capital spending cash flows
Though the techniques are different from each other but they are equivalent methods used to calculate all the cash flows which includes the cash flow from operations, cash flow from capital spending and cash flow from working capital requirements. As there are many other methods which are used to calculate operating cash flows but there is one element which is common among all of them which is – After tax differential cash flow from where the operation of the project begins. Among all the approaches, pro forms approach is mostly used as the inputs can be straightly taken from the pro forma statements.
While calculating operating cash flows, pro forma approach is one of the most preferred method which people uses. Check the facts of the pro forma income statement of the project where one would not get the income statements as they are generally absent or avoided. One only needs to convert the accounting facts into cash flow information in the pro forma. Change in EBIT and depreciation is similar to the value which one will get by calculating the difference of the change in sales and costs.
When one is using this method, there are three general steps which you can make use of to calculate the project's operating cash flow. One needs to do the calculation of the earning amount of the organization before the interest and taxes (EBIT) in the presence and absence of the project. It is the first step from where the calculation procedure starts. Next step involves the subtraction of the change in taxes. Make sure to exclude the interest expenses while calculating the change in taxes. In the third step, one gets a value when depreciation which is a non cash flow item gets subtracted out to calculate EBIT. One should do this by adding the depreciation value again. Therefore, to calculate operating cash flows:
Operating cash flows: Change in earnings before interest and taxes- change in taxes+ change in depreciation
Of course! One can always make use of these methods but there are three more options which also give the same output i.e. change in operating cash flows. These alternative methods are more popular as they are being used practically and hence it's important to learn them. Remember, the output is always same but there are different ways of getting the output.
In the pro forma income statement, financing flows are not used so one can easily go to the bottom line of depreciation and understand that depreciation; a non cash flow item is being taken out or subtracted from the calculations such as:
Operating cash flows= net income + depreciation
It is easy to get the output or the result with these method which is easy and don't involve any difficult procedures. Even when one avoid using the financial flows; it would still give you the correct output.
Here, using the definitional approach one aims to calculate the change in operating cash flows which makes use of some of the simple procedures.
Subtract the change in revenues from change in cash expense.
The value which you will get from the first step, subtract the value from the change in taxes.
Operating cash flows= change in revenues- change in cash expenses-change in taxes
Keep the definition of operating cash flows in mind!
Avoid using the element of depreciation in depreciation tax shield approach; consider net profits after tax as revenues and subtract it from cash expenses. Here, one needs to adjust with the fact that incremental depreciation usually helps to reduce taxes which is known as depreciation tax shield which is otherwise termed as depreciation times tax rate.
Operating cash flows = (revenues- cash expenses) x (1- tax rate) + (change in depreciation x tax rate)

SEATTLE (AP) The Seattle SuperSonics' new owner told the NBA on Friday he plans to move the team to Oklahoma City.
Clay Bennett had set a Wednesday deadline for having a plan to replace KeyArena, which he says is outdated. He and the city are in a dispute about the arena lease.
He has until March 1 to file for relocation with the NBA if he wants the team to play the 2008-09 season anywhere besides Seattle. The Sonics are the city's oldest major professional sports franchise.
Bennett briefly backed off his deadline, not wanting to distract from the start of the season. He watched Thursday night's home opener against Phoenix from his suite, spending most of the second half chatting with Hall of Famer Bill Russell while fans chanted "Save our Sonics!" during the game.
"Today we notified commissioner (David) Stern that we intend to relocate the Sonics to Oklahoma City if we succeed in the pending litigation with the city, or are able to negotiate an early lease termination, or at the end of the lease term," Bennett said in a statement.
NBA spokesman Tim Frank confirmed the league received notice and is referring the matter to the owners' relocation committee.
Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire said the latest development was "no surprise" and the state will "continue to work with others on the arduous process" of keeping the Sonics and the WNBA's Storm.
Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett called the news a "significant step" but urged caution.
"The history of sports is littered with franchises that intended to relocate, said they would relocate and for whatever reason didn't relocate," said Cornett, a former television sportscaster. "Things change. I don't anticipate anything changing, but things do change."
Bennett became owner just more than a year ago, and also owns the Storm. He bought the Sonics from a local group led by Starbucks Coffee chairman Howard Schultz for $350 million and has said the club is not for sale. Schultz, also unhappy with KeyArena, and his group paid $200 million for the team in 2001.
Bennett is trying to void the final two years of the lease. The city wants to hold the Sonics to the agreement, which calls for the team to play at KeyArena through the 2009-10 season.
Bennett said the team lost $17 million last year because of the lease. The Sonics had sought arbitration to decide the matter, but this week a federal judge blocked the team from seeking an escape through arbitration. That kept alive the city's attempts to gain a court order forcing the Sonics to play in Seattle.
Bennett championed a proposal this year for a new arena in the suburb of Renton that called for about $300 million in public money. The plan failed to get backing in the state Legislature.
"We now understand and respect that there is very limited public support for such a public investment," Bennett said.
Bennett has said he had no intention of splitting the Sonics and Storm, but appeared to hedge Friday. He said plans are not set for the WNBA team, which will play the 2008 season in Seattle.
A few hours before Bennett's announcement, a group of local investors offered to buy the Sonics in an effort to keep the Sonics from moving.
The group is headed by Dennis Daugs, a private wealth manager and managing director of Lakeside Capital Management LLC. The group said it sent Bennett a formal letter of interest. The statement did not identify others in the group or how much the group would pay.
"We respect the many loyal fans and we want to build a populist movement to keep the teams here," said Daugs, a former minority owner of the SuperSonics.
Dan Mahoney, a spokesman for Bennett, had no comment on Daugs' offer, other than to reiterate the teams are not for sale.

Joint Youth Ministry Amazed by Mexico Experience
"Hi, Youth and families. What an incredible week," wrote Lisa Jacobs, Director of the Joint Youth Ministry, of her Youth Group's recent mission trip to Mexico.
The Joint Youth Ministry (JYM), created to provide a safe place for young people to grow in their knowledge of who they are and who God is, serves the youth of three San Jose United Methodist churches - Almaden Hills, Cambrian Park, and Willow Glen.
"We arrived back in town on Saturday night about 6 p.m.," Jacobs continued. "I can't put into words how amazing our Mexico Mission trip was. We worked harder than we ever have and built four houses in four days with our team of 60. We camped in windy and dirty conditions with no running water and porta-potties, but how we camped was much better than the conditions we saw while building homes in the community.
"The need was incredible. The teens stepped up to the challenge and played with all the kids in the area, used their Spanish with the residents, and helped lay the foundation by hand- mixing cement all day, building seven walls and two roof pieces, and bailing-wired, tar-papered and chicken-wired the walls. We tar-papered and roll-roofed the roof. We finished by stuccoing the house with two layers of stucco, installing the two windows and doors, and commissioning the new home with the Spanish Lord's Prayer.
"There are no words to describe the trip. Check out the pictures on photobucket to see what I so poorly described."

With more than 150 active teenagers, JYM's goal is to meet the teenagers' spiritual and emotional needs by providing weekly programs and numerous trips throughout the year.

Owle Bubo: The ultimate video cameraman case for the iPhone 4, we go hands-onPocket-lint
We've talked about the Owle Bubo before but, despite it sounding like a raptor infected with the plague, we were still thrilled to get our hands on this iPhone 4 videophile accessory when it flew our way at IFA 2011.
Made of what feels like solid black steel, but is actually aluminium, it's essentially a glorified camera rig for the iPhone 4; but very glorified it is indeed. Shaped in a similar fashion to that of the steering wheel of the Batmobile, there's threads and holes all over the thing in just the right places for you to screw in other bits and pieces - and that's where all the fun comes in.
At the tips of the wings, you can attach a tripod, but part of the Owle Bubo's charm is that even having the thing handheld increases the stability of your video by a factor of a lot. The grip's good and you can get your mitts nicely around it.. At the same time, you get to upgrade the tiny lens on the iPhone to a 37mm wide-angle unit and screw mount so that you can add your own glassware should you have any that fits.
Probably the two best places to put your add-ons are the hole on the side; offering access to the iPhone's 3.5mm jack; and the slot at the top, where you can put an LED flash attachment such as the one pictured which was absolutely blinding. Powered by a pair of AAA batteries, the lamps chucked out easily enough light to interview someone or shoot a still life at a comfortable distance and anywhere up to 2 or 3 metres.
If you want to splash a little cash instead, you can go for the Rotolight RL48 Stealth Light for around £90 instead. It's pretty much the same deal with a few more settings rather than just on and off - light colour temperature choice, dimmable LEDs, etc.
As for the 3.5mm slot, the idea is to plug in a mini directional mic. There's plenty out there for the iPhone 4 including the $35 MityMic from TouchMic in the States. It's a very high-sensitivity microphone that works down to -39 +/- 3dB with a frequency range of 20Hz-20KHzB. Practically speaking, it's jointed so that you can point it towards your subject and, ultimately, it does the job nicely.
So, whether you choose just some of the attachments or the whole lot, the Owle Bubo is the piece of iPhone 4 accessory kit that adds it altogether. Combine it with your favourite video shooting and editing apps and it works like a charm.
You can buy the full Owle Bubo kit for £275 or on its own for around £140.
