Name the Biblical Man/Woman you admire most, why?  

I admire, Paul , because of his strong faith. I admire Moses He fast 40days for two times almost 80days because of the wickedness of his fellow countrymen. Ofcourse I admire Jesus as a Son of God, He offer his own self as a ransom for our sin.

Moses,because he saved the Isrealites,from
Pharoah.He stood up to him until he let his people go

Enokh, he is the great man

I relate to Peter. He would do things without thinking them out, he would argue with Jesus, he even denied Him, but loved Him very much and always was sorry when he messed up and had a great desire to learn more and to grow in faith and understanding. There is hope for me! LOL I also like Paul. He was self-righteous and persecuted the believers until God got his attention and he became a believer himself. I'm a convert to the Catholic faith, so I can relate to his change of beliefs. I also admire the faith of Mary. When God says, do this, I tend to say, well, are you sure? don't you think it would be better this way? or can you show me how that's going to work first? Mary, not understanding how it could be possible, nevertheless accepted what the angel told her and said, Let it be done to me according to your word. I would like to get to the point where I accept everything with such great faith!

I would have to say Ruth. She stood by her mother-in-law and accepted the Lord as her god, rejected her community and family and gods, to take care of Naomi and accept her faith. She ended up being accepted later by Naomis family,and God took care of her.

Joseph with his colored coat :) I love that play, but even without the musical he is someone to be admired. He gave his brothers forgiveness even after all the bad stuff they did to him.

But of course, everyone in the bible stories is to be admired b/c most all of them did something great in their lives!

Mine is Doubtful Thomas. I don't know if I really dig the fact he had no problem questioning things and it was cool with Jesus, or if it's the fact I relate so much with him. However I have always felt like Thomas was my most favorite person from the Bible.

I like Gideon. The Lord sure asked him to have a lot of faith when he told him to send home the majority of his men to fight an enemy that already out numbered them. No matter what crazy thing the Lord asked of him he did it. I sometimes fell like that in my life.
