Biblical parallels from the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations
Some thoughts from UK about our Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. Point of information: this weekend was chosen as the equivalent point of the year to the Coronation in 1953. That was 59 years ago, because it was not celebrated till 16 months after she became Queen in 1952.
Like a large majority of Brits, I cannot remember a time when she was not the Queen. And yet … and I really don't get this Passage of Time thing at all … I can remember as a 3-year-old watching her Coronation on next door's tiny black and white TV, along with 19 others crammed into a small living room.

The Greatest Opportunities of Your Life - #6230
It's time to do whatever it takes to bring in the people that Jesus died to rescue because Jesus keeps doing things to get them ready for Him. He's trusting you to go after the harvest, not sleep through it. The opportunities to help people be in heaven with you are the greatest opportunities of your life. It's time to drop everything and run to the harvest.

Jubilee - a Christian perspective
The Israelites were supposedly to periodically observe a Year of Jubilee, during which slaves would be set free. They failed to observe this practice, and God judges them for it.
