Thanksgiving and Pilgrims - What's in a name?Paula Bidwell
The original people of Plymouth colony did not call themselves "Pilgrims". They would not have known whom you were talking about if you called them that. They instead called themselves "Separatists". They were a specific religious group that arose out of the Church of England. The people, we call "Pilgrims" are all too frequently confused with Puritans and the stereotypical depictions of the Thanksgiving pilgrims with somber clothing and big black hats with buckles is not accurate and depicts instead the typical clothing of the Puritans who came to Plymouth colony much later. In contrast, the original inhabitants of Plymouth colony wore colorful clothing and did not have silver buckles on their hats. There are many other confusing terms relating to the original people of Plymouth colony and it important to recognize the impact of "What's in Name", especially in regard to our children's education about the history of the United States.

What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer.
