Would you please run a Topic Guide and look at the topics.logos.com section especially the web links section for these two topics:

  • Aaron
  • Footwashing

And give me you feedback on the web links and synonyms? Thanks.

    Hi MJ.

    MJ. Smith said:

    Aaron

    Two of the links don't work:

    • The biblewiki link goes to an ad site
    • The Similarities link reports that the article is gone 

    Other than that the links are helpful.

    Footwashing

    • "Footwashing within the context of the Lord's Supper" is a blank article

    Apart from that really helpful

    How about adding a link to some pictures - such as http://christimages.org/biblestories/jesus_washes_disciples_feet.htm

    updated a bit ... Aaron was about 5 years old showing one of the dangers of this sort of thing.

    I like Wikipedia:Foot Washing best.

    MJ. many of the results link you to the Anabaptist Network  http://www.anabaptistnetwork.com/node/326

    I don't care for this, I'd rather see it point to Bible verse instead of following a website of any one religion for what they practice.

    There is a bug in 5.2a that breaks results for certain topics; it's fixed in 5.2b.

    This tells me that this section of the Topic Guide is of no use to you. Logos provides the Bible verse links in other sections; this section is specifically for web links which tend to be historical, denominational or academic. Everyone is free to add appropriate resources, remembering that they should be of broad interest. It is important to me to recognize that some users prefer the primarily Biblical ... I'll see what websites I can find that are more Biblical and of broad interest.

    Hi MJ.

    I try not to talk about which denomination I am on the forum. But I have been part of the Southern Baptist Church for most of my life. Now I am more non-denominational I think it is more important to be a Bible believing Christian than to follow a denomination.

    I am evangelical, conservative, reformed, Baptist. I think you will understand what I mean.
