Smoothmann, you rap?? Do you have a web site? BTW, The Spirit was sent to "bring many sons to glory" (among other reasons) and I always find it sad that we somehow pin the character of God down into this litttle box. He is a "warrior God" and a loving Father, "merciful" and willing to flip tables over in the temple and crack that whip. I think the original meaning of "meek" that being "power under control" describes God perfectly. Perfect balance. So maybe you represent the agressivness of the Lord, under control of course, and your brother the letter of the governmental law in the body. One thing I do know, it's okay to disagree, but it's down right pathetic how Christians get sore butts over others refusal to agree and then LIVE OUT the Christian life that they "KNOW" is right. If God wanted 10 billion of the same exact children, he could have gone on begetting and never started with the creation thing. My .02.
