I made a new web site at http://www.paulfpavao.com to replace my blog. I got frustrated with writing blog posts that just slipped away into the past so that I couldn’t even find them. So all my new “blog posts” will now be categorized in the “articles” section, and the most recent will be linked on the “what’s new” page. I get the blog effect, but also get web site categorization. The “what’s new” page even has .xml attached to it so it can be followed like any blog.
You can follow the new articles there using the RSS feed box on the home page. It comes with instructions.
The first two articles can be found here: http://www.paulfpavao.com/paul-pavao-blog.html
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.
There are a lot of opinions and rumors about Constantine, the Council of Nicea, and the events of the fourth century that changed Christianity to Christendom. Not only will you get the incredible story, with all its twists, plots, and intrigues, but you will find out how history is done and never wonder what is true again.
The Rest of the Old, Old Story 
Well, I think I’m going to try something better. I personally hate using an RSS reader, so why would I expect anyone else to use it. I much prefer subscribing by email. I need to have both choices, but I have to figure out how to do it. Until then, I’ll make sure to notify you here.
Ok Paul I get some of what you said, but what is the RSS feed box. Could you break it down for those of us that are cyber challenged.
