Peculiar People LTD? - Basil Wolverton - August 1972

Did God really mean for us to be "peculiar"? (Titus 2:14.) Or did He mean something else entirely than the usual modern meaning of the word? This amusing article will help you see in what way you should NOT be "peculiar" - especially at the Feast of Tabernacles. IN THE King James translation of the Bible, God's people are referred to as a "peculiar people" (Titus 2:14), an unfortunate wording almost as unhelpful as the one which mentions Easter instead of Passover! Actually, the original Greek says we are a people "special to God." We are a "purchased" people (I Pet. 29) - purchased by the blood of Christ (I Cor. 6:20). - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
