Okay, so there’s at least two of us buzzing around in the world. In all honesty, no one talks about it. I wondered if I had any siblings, and now I’m wondering who else might show up at the family reunion.
I always thought of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Not sure why some translations say creatures and some say creations. My understanding is that creation is the correct translation there. But yeah fitting in is a real problem, sense here, I don’t fit in. Our beliefs are not accepted in the Jewish community, in fact I know a couple that was literally expelled for being Jewish believers.
So I get it. So yeah new creation or creature kinda sets you a part. Then there are those that play the part and it is really irritating . But I know what I believe and that’s all there is to it. Don’t need to fit in to make a difference
I feel the same over here in Murryca ..’Creature’ wasn’t the term it turned into when it was used.. I knew the implication but I wanted to spin my story around my first thoughts! LOL
My kiddo started attending a christian school in first grade. He got home all upset because the older kids told him they were aliens and he was scared of aliens. Took me a minute to figure out what was going on! Got out the Bible and explained it to my kiddo and all was well after that.
As for me, I’ve never really fit in anywhere. I have learned to act a part depending on who I’m with. Sitting in the back row is the best place for me!
Man, this one really hit home. Bryan, I appreciated your music in the 1980s. I appreciate your nutshell sermons even more 40 years later. Thanks for all you do.
