I agree totally. One thing which could be expanded on (among many worthy ones) is the fact God chooses us and uses other former heathen to confirm us as one worthy of being their examples on the way to being Christlike i.e.: "Christians." They actually are choosing someone to be a model for their lives because Jesus said when one of us is mature, we will be like our teacher. That is why we must not set ourselves up as model Christians but point people to Jesus as the Teacher. Keep the faith, faint not, for we know we shall reap! Jeff,
