i am glad to be on the side that eventually will triumph
A quick summary of the three eschatologies held by many faithful Christians today:
- Post-millenial Christians play the game with joy, to win, motivated by confidence in the Coach and the Playbook.
- A-millenial Christians play the game with joy, to tie, motivated by confidence in the Coach and the Playbook. They really don't expect to carry the ball too far past the 50 yard line, but at least they're in the game!
- Pre-millenial Christians oooh and aahhh over the majesty, power, and glory of the other team, cower in their own end zone, and await a magic helicopter ride out of the game.
And your flavor of Christian confidence is ... ?

i always play to win... mr smedley... hehehe...
and every time i turn someone around to join the team i feel my side getting stronger...
i know that if called to i will join the fray...
i know the playbook is out there and the other team will use it to their apparent advantage...
foolishly of course...
