from my checkered past, and only really scratching the theological surface so far, I must agree that meek and weak shouldnt be synonyms...
Luke 22:36 is THE single verse that caught my attention, after 30+ yrs of indifference to Scripture...i used it fer a tag for a loooong time...
with the Lord on our side,'walk softly, and carry a BIG stick' takes on a whole new meaning...
the story as told by Luke, speaks of preparing to venture into a cold 'world' of hate...I know that the Lord Jesus was well aware that many of them were goiing to be martyrs, in a 'civil disobedience' source of resistance...
and that many would rise with arms too [Peter surely didnt surprise God with his sword in the garden]...
different parts of the body have different roles to play in the Will of god...all to His Glory...
These commie tools are in fer a rude awakening...
