Dear Dr. Bock,

To keep the s-anity of language in check, an ity is considered "a state of being." For instance - humility. Accordingly, you have demonstrated a contrast between a Christian and a Jesusian. Remarkable, because a Christian is to be "formed in the image of Christ" who was the original, unique God-man. Future perfected of course; yet still initially formed.

I must offer my initial thought that elicited this comment. In the OT there is an episode involving starving Jewish lepers and starving Jews. Bear in mind, both groups are born into the commonwealth of Israel. Yet, in the providence of God, it is the tenacious Jew - who knows that he is a leper - who ventures into a sure death to find and share the location of the abundant provisions left behind (by the would be conquerers) with the rest of Israel.

Now I ask, by a standard of typology: Who might be Christian and who Jesusian?
