For Whom Did CHRIST Die? – John Owen
The Father imposed His wrath due unto, and the Son underwent punishment for, either:
I. All the sins of all men.
II. All the sins of some men, or
III. Some of the sins of all men.
In which case it may be said:
I. If the last be true, some of the sins of all men, then have all men some sins to answer for, and so shall no man be saved; for if God entered into judgment with us, though it were with all mankind for one sin, no flesh should be justified in his sight: “If the LORD should mark iniquities, who should stand?” Ps. cxxx. 2. We might all go to cast all that we have “to the moles and to the bats, to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty,” Isa. ii. 20, 21.
II. That if the second be true, then Christ, in their stead suffered for all the sins of all the elect in the whole world, and this is the truth.
III. But if the first be the case, why are not all men free from the punishment due unto all their sins?
You answer, “Because of unbelief.”
I ask, Is this unbelief a sin, or is it not?
If it be, then Christ suffered the punishment due unto it, or He did not.
If He did, why must that hinder them more than their other sins for which He died?
If He did not, He did not die for all their sins!”
Guess I’m Pretty Important (not really)
I recently received this email from twitter.
Hi, Tripp Waller (trippwaller).
Barack Obama (BarackObama) is now following your updates on Twitter.
Check out Barack Obama’s profile here:

Best,
That’s right, the President of the United States of America follows me on twitter. Granted, he follows everyone who follows him.
But still, it’s a pretty cool email to get.
How to Style Wordpress
Once you get the hang of it, it’s not that bad
When you start, it can be a bit intimidating. There’s a lot of WP specific code in the template that makes you wary to move anything. However, the best thing to do is try things.
That being said, it’s tough to undo changes to the code in WP’s theme editor. You need to be doing this in a local editor like Dreamweaver or Notepad++(my favorite).
Editing on you local machine makes things easier, but it’s still a pain to upload and refresh until you see what you want. So how do you cut out that part?
- Download WAMP
- Install WordPress inWAMP’s www folder.
- Put all of your themes in WP’s “wp-content/themes/” folder.
- Edit and test you templates
After that you can access your WP installation via “http://localhost”. WAMP turns your computer into a local server that you can test PHP on. This is perfect for WP testing and debugging so you wont have to edit your live install.
Once you’re all set up and ready to make a theme, you’ll probably want to check out a blank/barebones WP theme. Here’s a couple:
Whiteboard
WPFrameWork
After that you’re good to go. Just experiment. If you hit a snag, Google is a great resource, or you’re welcome to email me.
You’d be suprised at all the things you can do. I’m constructing a website where visitors leave condolences rather than comments. Morbid, I know, but it’s just an example.
Link soon.
