“Port Authority Explosion: Suspect ID”d in ‘Attempted Terrorist Attack'”–Fox News

“Lost in Translation? Pope Ponders an Update to Lord’s Prayer”–The New York Times
“In a new television interview, Pope Francis said the common rendering of one line in the prayer — ‘lead us not into temptation’ — was ‘not a good translation’ from ancient texts. ‘Do not let us fall into temptation,’ he suggested, might be better because God does not lead people into temptation; Satan does.”
“What Child is This?”–Back to Basics
“The Child who brings joy to the world is first of all called the Wonderful Counselor. He will bring about universal and everlasting righteousness, peace and prosperity. The nations of the world will look to Jesus sitting upon the throne of David and praise Him for what He has brought about through His wisdom.”
