Saul and Jonathan were described as "lovely" in 2 samuel.

Song of Solomon is said to be an analogy of God and his bride, and contains words descibing God as "lovely" and "beautiful."

Adam was made in the image of God. The woman was pulled out of Adam.

Being a "lamb" sounds pretty sissy desn't it? I mean, if you called some men a lamb they hit you and then spit on the ground and talk about manly things like football...

Of course, if you called a man a lion he'd think it was a compliment

Jesus was called both...

But if you have been merciful, then God's mercy toward you will win out over his judgment against you.

A man who provides for his family, protects his wife and children, is a spiritual leader in the home, uh, to me that would be lovely!

Seems to me the Word describes Jesus as "lovely, mild, meek, gentle, precious, etc."

Sing on...

yeah I planned on doing some searching to see how the word lovely was used in the word.

It's a great book on mentoring your son and was just throwing this out for feedback, but I do feel we have got into the love songs to the boyfriend type area some.

NO! let me repeat: NO!


gender neutral is the same as making church NOW friendly. The church is not friendly to feminism. eeeek!


women like men. men do not like sissyboys.

God is still a man.

Looks like an interesting book to read. Have you read it and what did you get from it.
