What's the Big Deal With Astrology?

I am very concerned by how many people are into Astrology. I've even seen some sad attempts to justify it by Scripture. I think believer's should not mess with it at all. I think it's very dangerous, yet seems harmless - making it even more dangerous. The Bible is pretty clear on it too. People end up ordering their lives around something other than the Bible. People label and judge people because of astrology. People trust it rather than God. The list goes on and on. Here are a few links that might be helpful. Please don't be deceived by it's "harmless" allure.

I was wrong... Ephesians 4 Outline

I was wrong in my Ephesians 4 outline. PJ (Pastor John) hooked me up with some Greek help. The following is the basic (it is not going to tab it over as it should - so you'll have to figure that out yourself). The NIV flow of thought and the NAS fooled me a bit. Hopefully this makes some sense. Again, I haven't totally figured out the wording correctly. Of course, now I have to understand the passage, get a preaching outline, and write the sermon. Hope my wife loves me as I ignore her a bit and work on it.

A life verse for a single woman

"Have mercy on me, O God, for men hotly pursue me" ~psalm 56:1
If you are a single lady, claim this as your life verse :)
I didn't figure this brilliance out, but saw it on an old friend's facebook account. It's a great verse.
