taught about Jesus for the past fifteen years. The
lyrics presented Jesus as though he didn t want to
die for us and that he just wanted to back out of
God s plan. It also specifically states in the
verse, Why then am I scared to finish what I
started, What you started I didn t start it that
he had nothing to do with it and is scared to go
on. It made ...

record, disagreement with the theory of saltation,
and the misinterpretation of the word? rapid? in
terms of punctuation ist theory. Although this may

them. Most of the time they are harmless thoughts
about things that are usually unattainable. An
example would be when a person sees something that
they want and then dreams of having it. Whenever
someone holds an opinion based on what they think
is true, or in some cases what should be true,
rather than what actually is true, then that is an
illusion. Illusions sometimes help people cope
with painful situations, but in the end, illusions
