I was introduced to a concept within the last few days. The term *son of* in the Semitic languages, is not always to be taken literally, but to indicate the nature of something. e.g. Son of The Road means a traveler. So, Son of God--not necessarily meaning God's Son (although that it dangerously blasphemous)--could mean that He has *the nature of God*. Jesus is fully God and fully man. For the record, He is also the actual Son of God by virtue of the fact that the Spirit made Mary full with child.

This blog is a personal journal about my feelings and views regarding religion and politics, displayed in a public forum with the intention of being read and reflected upon for a better understanding of me and those who are like minded. The Table has traditionally been a place of family meeting, gathering around and sharing of ourselves as well as sharing of food. It was very important in the ministry of Christ and to His disciples (see posts from 3/30/13 & 8/28/14).
