Through out the bible God has set his people apart. But his people were never the rock stars or the glamorous; instead they were the bearded, full-clothed freaks. God definitely got peoples attention if that’s what he wanted to do. But I don’t think outsiders saw this group of people and wanted to be them. A lot like if you see an Amish believer now a days. You don’t really want to pull over right that minute and commit yourself to their lifestyle right then and there. In fact you often see these people and wonder why. Why do we have to look like freaks? This whole believing in God thing just seems too bizarre and scary as hell.
Why is it so hard for me to just give in? Why not completely submit to God? I’ll tell you why, because IT’S SCARY AS HELL. If I completely submit, who knows what that may mean? Knocking on doors, dressing weird, becoming some geek in a coffee shop, talking all soft and fruity, no more joking, no more guy moments, maybe selling everything I own, giving stuff away, trusting, becoming anti-everything, etc.
