Amen, brother WOS! By the way, out of curiosity, why that particular screen name. It always gets me thinking! :-) |

2 | help | Luke 11:2 | Wild Olive Shoot | 149439 | ||
It's from Romans 11:11-24. Referenced by Paul when describing his vision of a "unified" church. We are the “wild olive shoots”. From the wild, uncultivated tree, we were grafted into the natural tree, because of our faith in Christ. The screen name helps to remind me that it is unity among Christ's faithful that should be sought. We should be united in our love for God, obedience to Christ and while respecting God's law, we look to Christ alone for our salvation. Our ethnic background and social status should be irrelevant as what matters is our faith. We are to be one in Christ. (Galatians 3:28,29) WOS |

Ah! It was the word "shoot" that threw me. I had thought about Romans 11, but there the word is "branch." I kept thinking of the definition of a young growth that comes from a germinating seed. A very good affirmation, WOS! Thank you! In Him, Doc |
