What exactly is a bull's-eye? The dictionary lists it as "the center of a target", or "to be exactly right or successful". According to the Strong's Concordance, some of the definitions of sin mean "to miss" or to "go astray". That makes me think of the archery, or sport shooting idea of "hitting the bulls-eye". That's where I am aiming...right for the bulls-eye...straight for the center, not to miss or go astray. So what exactly does that mean? Wow, I wish it meant that my target was huge! Like really huge, so it was easy to not miss that beautiful center. But the path to righteousness is a narrow one (ever played darts? How about blindfolded?) That's what I think the church has been doing....it's been blindfolding us.
Stay tuned...
