Bible Note: Colin, that verse in 1 Cor. 2:2 was sort of brought up at staff meeting today. And in Philippians 3, where Paul counted ALL his "accomplishments before meeting Christ" as rubbish. He was a "Jew's Jew" - the top of the chain. Followed the letter of the law to the letter, dot and crossing of every "T". He longed to KNOW Christ by experience - and did. Muslims KNOW that for them to experience Christ is to experience anything from becoming ostracized, to being severely beaten, or killed. Arabs, are people oriented, as opposed to event. Bringing dishonor to one's family is a huge NO-NO. They, like Paul, choose to "count it all rubbish" to know Christ. It's well worth the price! Blessings, Taleb |
