<p>Simon did an excellent job in leading us through the Bible study which was based loosely on the film <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0198781/">Monsters, Inc.</a> and dealt with issues of fear, deception and truth.  We started by looking at the following readings, before moving onto the less focused questions:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Samuel%203:1-21&amp;version=47">1 Samuel 3:1-21</a> &#8211; the call of Samuel</li>
<li><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark%2010:13-16;&amp;version=47;">Mark 10:13-16</a> &#8211; &#8216;let the children come to me&#8217;</li>
<li><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis%203:1-7;&amp;version=47;">Genesis 3:1-7</a> &#8211; the deception and the fall</li>
<li><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%208:22-25;&amp;version=47;">Luke 8:22-25</a> &#8211; Jesus calms the storm</li>
<li><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Titus%203:1-8;&amp;version=47;">Titus 3:1-8</a> &#8211; be ready for every good work</li>
<li><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%203:1-21;&amp;version=47;">John 3:1-21</a> &#8211; &#8216;truly, truly I say to you&#8230;&#8217;</li>
</ul>
<p>The questions in no particular order:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallen_angel">Is the devil a fallen angel, and if so, how did that happen?</a> {<a href="http://www.carm.org/questions/fallen_angels.htm">shorter version</a>}</li>
<li><a href="http://nz.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080605200110AALGTXl">Where does the popular image of the devil as a horned red creature come from?</a> {<a href="http://www.crestock.com/image-keyword/satan.aspx">examples</a>}</li>
<li><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/s1w/130136320/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-151" src="http://amicans.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/devil-duck.jpg" alt="Devil Duck" width="120" height="120" /></a><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocrypha">Are there other books which didn&#8217;t &#8220;make it into&#8221; the Bible?</a></li>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_canon">How was the final composition of the Bible Decided?</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.gotquestions.org/marriage-heaven.html">Will our earthly marriages continue in heaven?</a></li>
</ul>
<p>If I&#8217;ve missed any of the questions and you&#8217;re still wanting answer, let&#8217;s keep the discussion going in the comments.</p>
<p><strong>And Finally</strong></p>
<p>For those who remember the <a href="http://amicans.wordpress.com/?s=linerider">Amicus fascination</a> with <a href="http://linerider.com/">LineRider</a>, you&#8217;ll be pleased to hear that it&#8217;s finally come of age (or perhaps &#8216;sold out&#8217;).  McDonalds have used it to <a href="http://linerider.com/en/movie/325278">create one of their adverts</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Next week:</strong> Not sure yet &#8211; sorry, but I have essays leaking out of my ears and little other capacity to think.  <a href="http://www.ysmarko.com/?p=2890">Perhaps this&#8230;</a></p>
