Interesting... but God does often break you before he makes you...
Take Adam and 'the woman', they were told they would die if they took the fruit from a particular tree and they stood in front of God hearing the judgement and perhaps realized they would not immediately The woman was told there would be pain in childbirth (well that means she's here for a while?) (and that probably means so will Adam) ... and after... Adam named the woman 'Eve' for she would be mother of all the living... a bit of mercy in the judgement where they probably expected to die that day
In similar fashion God hid mercy in judgements and even Jesus describes himself as 'the scandelon" which was a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense. Stumbling to be broken and made whole and better for some , falling to be hopelessly broken and down for the count for others..
Threats of mythology never attracted me to johnny cash. Perhaps he lost a lot of potential fans that way
What an inspiring song title.
