Another thought...

Aloha

After speaking last night, I read some more of Rob Bell's awesome book and something very cool was revealed:

Y'know the first 5 books of the Bible? (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers & Deuteronomy?) Well, they were written by Moses, and considered as 'the law' and the standard for everyone. Kids even had to learn all 5 books by heart at around age 10!

Anyways, these 5 books were known as 'The Torah'. And 'Torah' has lots of different meanings...one of them being 'Way'.

So, when Jesus announced in John 12 (I think) "I am the WAY, the truth and the life" he was saying "That was me who wrote that. I was there, I am the law."

Wow.
Just thought I'd share.
Be blessed!
