Veritas et Lux 
Wonderful blog. Looking forward to using this as another tool in my theological studies.
Hey Pastor Dave, We like the Blog and especially the Veritas photo of the castle we visited last summer where Luther hid out. Once again we are learning so much about God and His creation in your classes. I am writing from Seattle and will miss your Sunday sermon on 2 Thes. 2:13. Quick question: I continue to read “Knowing God” by Packer. I read today that “The god of this world haa blinded the minds of them which believe not” 2 Cor. 4:4. Up to this point I thought God blinded the eyes and closes the ears of men and opens them as He wills. Is it both?
