Other: Of a different character or quality
I got in a short discussion about being "Other". How God is the ultimate OTHER... the Ultimate difference from Man and yet we are created in His Image. When we come into this faith we are called to become Other. "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2 ESV)
It's said a different way later in Hebrews 12:4, "Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord."
The word Holy in both Greek and Hebrew literally translates to mean SEPARATE or OTHER.
So in this Lent Season strive to have peace with one another and to be OTHER to be HOLY. To transform your thoughts to those that are of God. To put His will over your own wants and desires.
