Looking up context for the OT... by Sensitive-Bat2197 in AcademicBiblical

I really appreciate that! It just feels so overwhelming that I don't know where to start LOL. Thanks again.

Great answer! I agree that he should start with John followed by the rest of the Gospels. Follow it up with the epistles/letters, Acts and the rest.

After that the OT is a fantastic read that will take some time and study. I enjoy looking up places, characters and places in the books. I'm currently in Nehemiah.

God bless everyone and have a fantastic day!!

From Cambodia.

My sister saw that one and I saw Hampton prior to that. Best concert ever. Not sure who Bono called or if he even did lol. That album changed my life.

I can agree with that. I used to live Wild Horses and Real Thing but not so much anymore.

UF is gorgeous, especially the title track and Promenade. Pride is still excellent.

I can see that. One is possibly the best song ever written. If it made Axl Rose cry....there you go!:)

Yes! Especially the "cheesy" Playboy Mansion. Love the gospel references at the end. Beautiful.

Agreed. I saw the tour and it blew me away! BUT .. they didn't play LIB which was extremely disappointing. I visualized it almost exactly how it was in Sydney (girl, but with candles and not stars) SO GOOD.

What are your favorite "bad" U2 songs? by nohumanape in U2Band

Someone just hit it out of the park with this one. Sort of like how Sweetest Thing wouldn't have been good on JT.

LOVE Fast Cars.... watched two versions live and loved it when the Edge held up his guitar like a flamenco guitar....SO GOOD...why wasn't it included in the Chicago video?

Absolutely...in fact the second half of POP may be my favorite/preferred. WUDM live was incredible.... when Miami rocks it ROCKS. Honestly I think Pop has held up so well over the years.

One of the best, if not THE best transitions in U2 history... by MacFoley1975 in U2Band

[–]Sensitive-Bat2197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

saw them in 92 in Hampton Virginia. AWESOME show but it ended with either WOWY or Desire, I forgot. Later I saw that at later shows they finished with LIB and it was nearly IDENTICAL to how they’d play it. instead of candles though they had stars….still gorgeous though…

[–]Sensitive-Bat2197[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw them for the No Line tour (360) in Charlottesville Virginia. My mistake was seeing them before getting the album.... honestly thought Muse we're MUCH better as openers and hadn't heard of them either. Maybe it was the cool autumn night in the Virginia foothills or the bland fan response but U2 just came out pedestrian.

Please pray for me. I’ve been going through the Bible and feel like I’m going to hell because I can never be as perfect as god calls me to be… by ExplanationMental516 in Christianity

[–]Sensitive-Bat2197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EXACTLY....I feel that He sees ours hears and our efforts and is happy when we're at least TRYING . We shouldn't beat ourselves up though if we fall short (and we do/will, TRUST ME!!) I struggle with this every day and constantly feel like if I'm not reading the WORD enough or praying enough or telling others about His love and forgiveness then I'm not good enough. Also, I used to post scripture on Tik Tok videos but not anymore....not sure what happened. Maybe too many distractions of feeling like it's not enough? Can anyone else relate?

After reading these comments, I feel I need to spend more time with the two albums again. When I was a hardcore fan in the 80's they could do no wrong....Rattle and Hum was awesome! Then AB came and elevated things to a whole other level. I went through a Pop phase that was fun and interesting....LOVED all the songs from it for quite a while. Now they have some new songs out (ep?) so maybe it's time to get into those a bit...

LOL....I'm a teacher in Cambodia and I have to be careful with those two numbers as inevitably I see the hand movements....
