Guest SP-1 Report post Posted April 22, 2004 It is pretty interesting. The way languages interact and become interpreted is almost always a frustraing and interesting phenomenon. For instance, when Jesus said "blessed are the meek" the word he used originally wasn't so much meek. The word he used is also used to refer to a wild horse that is broken in, contained, that comes under the leadership of another. All the power and force of a wild stallion is still there, but it's under the leadership of its teacher/trainer. The strength of being a man isn't supposed to be destroyed, but focused under the Lordship of Christ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrRant 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2004 You love your major because you love Christ. It would be kinda odd if you hated him wouldn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
