Say you believe that God has so moved you to give $100 to "charity". What is it that moves you to give to the Heart Foundation, when the next Christian so moved might give to fight lung cancer? Is one a better Christian than the other?
Do we all not identify more so with the personalities of some of the great Biblical figures than others? Peter's "enthusiasm", Paul's steadfastness, John the Baptist's zealotry, or Moses' meekness. These are personality traits that are not sinful by themselves. God uses each to the fullest to accomplish His plan. Each trait made that person perfect for the job God had in mind. I don't understand associating all personality with sin.
Of course we do. But threse personality differences play a role in this changing world, which is really our opporutnity, a gracious gift, to repent and be saved.
I was speaking of the pre-Fall and post-Judgment mankind. Moseses and Pauls and Peters will not be needed as they were needed on earth. There will be no charity and no blood drives. There will be no conflict, no wars, no competition. No needs, no jobs, no schools.
Our personalities will not be expressed, because there will be no reason to express them. Surely, we won't be arguing on a religion forum. :)
EXCELLENT POINTS.
