Names and titles of Jesus found in the Bible

At the start of the Gospel according to the Apostle John, we are told that John the Baptist bore witness that Jesus was the Christ. Years ago, because of my ignorance (lack of understanding or education), I thought Christ was Jesus’ last name. Then I learned that Christ is actually a title. Christ is the Greek form of the Hebrew word Messiah. A short definition would be “Anointed One” or “Chosen One.” I am not so sure this glorious title, and it is truly glorious, can by itself truly define the one who created the Earth.

Here is another served hot appetizer. Whip these up when needed. You should have everything in your pantry. There is nothing more comforting. Stir these up in the morning and chill until needed. Most everyone likes cheese.

Place white bread in saucepan. Pour scalded milk over bread and set aside until lukewarm. Then place pan over low heat and stir until pasty. Remove from heat. Mix in cheese and flour. Blend egg into mixture and add cayenne pepper. If the consistency seems too moist, add a tablespoon more of bread or saltine cracker crumbs. Allow mixture to cool. Shape into 3/4-inch balls, using a teaspoon. Deep fry in 350 F. deep fat until golden brown. Drain on paper towel. Makes about 25 cheese balls.

NASCAR: Slowly dying and I’m asking why.
A few years ago, an advisor to NASCAR asked me why it was losing so many fans both at races and on TV-covered races. This advisor owned four radio stations with two of his AM stations broadcasting the races and one FM radio station covering the Knoxville market.

As an amateur naturalist I have a curiosity to know how things work. In college I once saw the chemical reactions involved in photosynthesis laid out on a large poster. This all-important method plants use to make food for themselves (and ultimately us) was incredibly complex and took up half the wall. It is so complex that it’s tempting to simply say that plans bring in carbon dioxide and water, add sun energy, then a miracle happens and out comes oxygen and food. This is true but let me attempt to elaborate on the miracle part.

The May Veterans Breakfast gathering will be held on Saturday, May 9, at 8 a.m. A free breakfast of biscuits, gravy, eggs, fruit, juice and coffee will be available for all veterans, their families, and friends at the American Legion Post 212 on Veterans Rd.

Those of you, Dear Readers, who remember old television commercials might remember the title phrase from a Tombstone Pizza advertisement. The answer was always something to the effect, “Pepperoni and extra sausage.”
My youngest half-brother Jerry Sampson was 13, almost 14, years old when I was born. He gave me my first name, Ronnie, for his best high school friend, Ronnie Brantley. I was never to actually know Ronnie Brantley, but I did come to know and appreciate his sister Imogene Munsey, long-time Union County school bus driver.

The Ford Starliner stands as one of Ford Motor Company’s most ambitious and performance-focused designs of the early 1960s. Produced for only two model years, 1960 and 1961, the Starliner was Ford’s bold attempt to merge cutting-edge styling, aerodynamics, and big-block power into a full-size production car. Developed during the height of Detroit’s philosophy to “race on Sunday and sell on Monday,” the Starliner was intended to dominate both the showroom floor and the racetrack.

I love small towns that are like stepping back in time. Take note, there are two Saludas so let’s make sure you know I’m referring to North Carolina close to the state line, not the one in South Carolina.
