| Introduction | I decided to replace the standard fluff with something more meaningful. I’m a Christian. According to polls, the vast majority of Americans claim this now popular title. What assures me that I make no mere claim? Well, back in about mid-2004, I reached utter spiritual bankruptcy, realizing that God’s standard – His requirement of me – is Perfection. This startling realization drove me to draw the painful, humbling conclusion that I have absolutely no inherent goodness with which to ever possibly achieve this high and Holy standard. Consequently, I threw myself at the feet of Christ Jesus, smitten by the blinding and overwhelming Truth that my only hope is His Sovereign, Merciful, Generous, and Amazing Grace demonstrated by The Divine act of Substitution, by which He gave His own, precious life as Payment for this horribly wretched, rebellious, God-hater. Since that time, I and others around me have witnessed the fruit of hunger after righteousness and a striving to be both a HEAR-ER and DO-ER of His Word. If this brief account of God’s Sovereignty resonates strongly within you, then, perhaps, you're also one who rightly wears the Christian Label! If so, you are my True Sibling! |

If there's no I in team, why is there meat?
Because there's also no 'I' in Tabasco® sauce. Du-u-u-h!
