The Creative Part of Logos

 Christians are to be law abiding.  The Son of Man came to serve.  A young man may have needed structure.  He learned to follow directions.  Given a young man played a sport, he is coached a particular way.  He follows directions.  Too easy.   The creative part of the Logos, it comes in a "No Man's Land" where there is nothing but life or death.  No Man's Land like in World War I, the area between the French and the Germans, where there was nothing but death....or life and victory.  

In what kinds of ways may a man have learned to be in this "No Man's Land?"  

• Someone was in Iraq or Afghanistan.  He is on a base with many armed men.  He may have felt relatively safe.  As soon as he goes outside the wire, he may be shot or blown up at anytime.  He was forced into a place of death or life.  He may have had to tap into the creative part of Logos.  
• The Nazis during World War II: "A serious problem in planning against American doctrine is that the Americans do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligation to follow their doctrine."
• Around 1600 AD, the Old World was known.  It was familiar.  The New World was full of The Unknown and dangers.  Someone sailing across the sea was going into the unknown.  What was out there?  Someone may have had to hold tight to God.  

 Going into the unknown, and coming up with solutions, that is part of the American Character.  Some ideologues in Academia have attacked this part of the American Character with the Nanny State, and forced equality, and forced conformity.  What The No Man's Land comes down to is being in "The Danger Zone," and holding tight to God.  Someone, on the spot, may have come up with solutions.  

Where is this "No Man's Land" in the Bible?  Pharaoh, he wanted to kill Moses.  Moses was a wanted man.  God instructed Moses to go and speak God's words to Pharaoh.  Moses had to hold tight to God.   

Ahab and Jezebel, they were looking to kill Prophet Elijah.  Elijah was a wanted man.  Elijah held tight to God. 

Herod was looking to kill Jesus.  Jesus grew up as a wanted man.  Many of the Biblical figures were in positions of death or life, where they had to hold tight to God.  This is where the creative part of Logos is found.
