avondale-bepress.abstract<p>“<em>Be</em>” is a fascinating word. It more than captures</p> <p>the attention and rigorously stimulates the</p> <p>imagination. It is everything to everyone all</p> <p>the time, yet poses a formidable challenge to</p> <p>be harnessed and presented in a meaningful</p> <p>way. The word “be” is most often coupled with</p> <p>“to” usually in a passive form. However, great</p> <p>implications result when the action verb form</p> <p>of “be” is used. This has to do with a conscious</p> <p>identity of active being. The Biblical text,</p> <p>Micah 6:8, “to act justly and to love mercy and</p> <p>to walk humbly with your God” (NIV), clearly</p> <p>emphasises the active form of “be”.</p>
