So true. Why is that so hard for them to grasp? It is pretty plain that God is creating us in His image to be His children. Christ is the first born of creation and as the son of the Father he has been perfected. Now God is creating and perfecting more children, we know we are perfected through suffering, pain and experience. Why is it such a leap to conclude Jesus was perfected the same way? Don't you think God knows what He is doing and Christ was the example for us all?

Yes. Seems fairly straightforward. Jesus is the blueprint and mold for the 1st of the creation. Everybody else is patterned after Him. The Father seems to know what He is doing.

No my friend Duane. I wasn't referring to any individual in particular. I was just commenting generally. My point is that we need to post everything we share with the motive of edification of the body of Christ - rather than self-promotion.
Duane:
I am sorry if my TESTIMONY on the TESTIMONIAL site sounded self-promoting, I was just sharing MY joy at having been able to share God and this web-site with numerous people in numerous places and situations. If this incourages OTHERS to "preach the gospel in season and out of season" to all who will listen then-- that serves the PURPOSE of my testimonial. Some have pm'ed me that it was an ENCOURAGEMNT for them to be bolder in sharing the word. (I intend for God to always be on the "tip of my tongue" replacing HIM with the many conversations I enjoy with strangers about NASCAR and local racing.)
I am not requesting that any B-T member "be patient with my ideas or posts" because I have already instructed the MODERATORS to "bleep" any of my posts that they deemed unworthy/unfit for this web-site. (They have--thank you)
As for my "young age" PLEASE don't tell AARP or they will cancel my membership! LOL

Good on you, Duane. I wish I had more boldness in proclaiming Christ. As for AARP aren't they a bit pesky?:)
