Theme Change

I changed the theme on this blog. Let me know if you like it or not by clicking the comment link above. (It gives the number of comments, but it’s a link.)

About Paul Pavao

I am married, the father of six, and currently the grandfather of five. I teach, and I am always trying to learn to disciple others better than I have before. I believe God has gifted me to restore proper theological foundations to the Christian faith. In order to ensure that I do not become a heretic, I read the early church fathers from the second and third centuries. They were around when all the churches founded by the apostles were in unity. My philosophy for Bible reading is to understand each verse for exactly what it says in its local context. Only after accepting the verse for what it says do I compare it with other verses to develop my theology. If other verses seem to contradict a verse I just read, I will wait to say anything about those verses until I have an explanation that allows me to accept all the verses for what they say. This takes time, sometimes years, but eventually I have always been able to find something that does not require explaining verses away. The early church fathers have helped a lot with this. I argue and discuss these foundational doctrines with others to make sure my teaching really lines up with Scripture. I am encouraged by the fact that the several missionaries and pastors that I know well and admire as holy men love the things I teach. I hope you will be encouraged too. I am indeed tearing up old foundations created by tradition in order to re-establish the foundations found in Scripture and lived on by the churches during their 300 years of unity.

Thanks for the offer, Doug. I went back to this format, so now it’s not necessary. I think of you guys as being too busy to be widening columns on my blog.

I like to change the furniture around some, though. I like this, but it’s so hard to leave things the same long term.

I know some guys that could help you with the coding. They are experts in CSS and other technologies.

I took an office vote and we feel that the blue background was distinctive. It put us in a different mood. It was also easier on the eyes for reading.

I made the words a bit bigger. I didn’t change how wide it was because I have to edit the code to do so. I felt okay messing with the font, though it took me a while to find the right setting. When I have more time, I may try expanding the main column just a bit. I need time to experiment, though, not being a css expert.

I like the appearance but I think because it is more narrow that the words are smaller and a bit harder for the eyes to adjust to. Besides the smaller words the page looks a lot more professional.
