Overall, I see freedom as being about power and control. I think the human instinct is to want as much of that as we can get. I see the Christian faith as being about the willing and loving surrender of perceived power and control over to God. When you and I each do that for real, the effect is the same, it is good and pleasing to God. That is, even though we may disagree about what's going on behind the scenes. :)

Oh man, you are right in line with a final snippet of a wondrous message from Ravi Zacharias I heard yesterday! I highly recommend it to all!

"What I needed was an appreciation love."

Don’t remember where but I heard Ravi in person. Great Christian.

Discovered the other day that he’s now the editor of Walter Martin’s KINGDOM OF THE CULTS.
