Nearer My God to thee

Very oppressive feeling around today, don't know why!!..Watched the 'Dan Brown film yesterday 'the da Vinci code' there is certainly something compulsive about it,the same as the 'Harry Potter' films...i.e when you start watching it you find it difficult not to watch til the end,i don't know why because neither of them are well written, or even good stories!!..yet so may have become obsessed with them letting them pervade into their lives,when they are gripped with the conviction that these are not just stories, pieces of bad fiction,but Reality.!!!..Very strange!!
Maybe people would believe that about my Holy Book, the Bible,i believe it is true,and the Purest translation which i believe is the Authorised Version.
The 'Da Vinci code' brought up some interesting things,the unsettling suggestion that the books of the Bible were decided by the council of Nicea, effectively the catholic church,( to them it proved that what went into the Bible was controlled,by Constantine, who they say stayed a Pagan until his Deathbed conversion, 'hedging his bets'!!!..),then of course IF i believe that the Bible is the Word of God, surely i believe He is Powerful enough to have exactly what He wants in it? !!!..
It is the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic,a ship built in Belfast where my Father is from, my Mum told me once the as it went down they sang the Hymn 'nearer my God to the',on t.v they just said the band played it, but of course then the Public knew words of Hymns without hymn sheets.
64 people viewed my blog yesterday, very strange, i don't know why any one would be interested in anything i have to say! strange!!..
