Default Re: Daily Devotional Inspirations

Thanks for all the in-depth analysis of the TAS devotional - both Aron and OBW put some goodly time & effort into looking at that going both forward and backward! However, what I'd asked for (a couple times) was not a review of what TAS said, but rather what folks thought of my comment regarding the TAS devotional (and actually what I said was more a comment on the verses TAS cited, than what he had to say). In that regard, I think all there's been was a one-liner response (by Aron I think), that really didn't address very much.

So here it is again (let's see how much discussion this generates):

This verse then demonstrates how that occurred: "When it pleased God to reveal His Son in me." And then Paul was caught up to see things he was not allowed to utter. What did the Lord show Paul!? I believe it was an expansive view of what "His Son in me" really meant in its fullness. We have no natural idea of the height and breadth and length and depth of Christ, but His indwelling Spirit is revealing these vast expanses of Christ to us!
