Welcome!

My name is James S. Hodges. Here you'll discover the thoughts and analysis on a 'hodgepodge' of subjects as I attempt to journey over the 'horizon' that separates the known from the unknown. This blog is meant to shed light on topics from God's Word in a relevant way. Hopefully, this blog will change at least one person's life for the glory of God.

I will also give my opinions on current political issues and news headlines that interest me.

And you can also order a copy of my book War of the Horizon by clicking on the cover image below. May God bless you and enjoy!

November 10th (The day Paradise was lost according to Ussher)

I wrote in an earlier blog on October 7th about a man named, James Ussher. He studied and determined when key moments in Bible history happened such as the Creation of the world, the Flood in the days of Noah, and the call of Abraham just to name a few. I mentioned in my earlier blog titled "This is the Week of Creation (According to Old Historian)" that he documented his dates and his methods of how he determined them in his work titled The Annals of the World back in 1658.

Well, according to Ussher, November 10th (which is today as I'm writing this) is the day when Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden. He calculated that it precisely happened on Monday, November 10, 4004 BC. By the way, today also happens to be Veterans Day. So thank a Veteran for their service to our country and I guess it's ironic since, according to Ussher, this is the day that began all conflicts.
